Comp. tools

[JPBlacksmiths]

We generally pack a toolbox of standard hand tools such as wrenches, socket set, hammer, mallet, pliers, files, allen key sets, hacksaw, wire strippers, and screwdrivers. As far as power tools go, we generally bring a hand drill, an impact driver, a dremel, and a soldering iron.

Although you only asked about tools, I figured I should mention some other things we always bring. We always bring a fire extinguisher, a ton of saftey goggles, gloves, a first aid kit, extra nuts and bolts, a selection electronics components (crimps, splices, fuses, etc...), a power strip, an extension cord, electrical tape, heat shrink, battery chargers, pneumatic tubing, extra wire, zip ties, duct tape, and of course our drive station.

I might be forgetting a few things, but these are generally the things my team makes sure to bring to competition. There are definitely other things we bring, but they aren't essential like our flag or our shelving unit.

Hopefully this gives you guys a general idea, but like a few people already said, bring what you think is necessary for your team. Also, don't forget that usually the other teams at your competition are nice and are more than willing to lend you items if you forgot something!

Good luck with this season!!
