ÉowynThat looks like about how many tools I put in my cargo pants before a regional. . .No wait, I have more.
Nice selection!

EmilioMZip-Ties. They fix everything. Gimme Zip-Ties and I'm stoked.
Plus, they are perfect for attaching your sleeping classmate to his desk

Don't forget the zip tie gun to go with them. Zip tie guns are far too amusing, we had a lot of fun with them this season.

I <3 Deburing Tools. You might want to throw a pencil into that stack too. And a sharpie, they work well on aluminum.

EmilioMI love how much attention is now being paid to the zip-tie gun lol.
Ps. I second the deburring tool. When you have as many hand-drilled ligtening hole on your robot as we did, its hard no to have one or two in your pocket 24/7
Pps. Toss in a dremel tool. They make for some pretty neat light shows

So cool. I was introduced to them in Pittsburgh this year. They tighten AND cut zipties for you.
I want one of those too. |

*nods* We found a website selling them for a decent price, and bought enough to hand out to each team at Pittsburgh. So I'm pretty sure the one you were introduced to came from us. Everyone seemed to love them as much as we do.

Choose my weapon hmm... I'll have to take the file, pliers, clamp, and the lightsaber. Never know when you need to cut through a blast door to get to the robot
