Tools
- Victorinox Swisstool Spirit X, my favorite "full sized" multitool. Well-engineered, ergonomic, full metal, and versatile enough to replace an entire toolbox in a pinch. After filing down the 2mm flathead screwdriver to 1.8mm, it even fits my laptop screws.

- Leatherman Style PS, an airplane-approved keychain multitool. Not very powerful, but small enough to always carry around. The toolset is perfect for IT, tinkering, grooming, and everyday tasks.
Leatherman Style PS
- Sequre SQ-D60 Soldering Iron, small, light, USB-C-powered, fast heating (~10s from 25°C to 360°C), digitally controlled, replaceable tips, I love it. The only quirk: so far I have only been able to power it with the recommended power supply. None of my other USB-C power supplies make it turn on. See also the "Pinecil."
