I tend to do most of the repairs in my home myself. In the last year I have repaired my stove twice, electrical outlets twice, broken belt on my clothes dryer, replaced a toilet, a faucet, a garbage disposal. A lot of times I start with this kit but I may go get other full size tools if they are convenient.

I have ADHD, so having tools on hand is very helpful for fixing things before I get distracted. Also putting together the perfect mini-toolkit has been one of my most recent ADHD obsessions for the last few months.

I don't generally need most of the bits, the tape, glue stick, lighter or cordage.

My most frequent needs are: Cutting tool for opening packages, and breaking down boxes. All different sizes of screwdrivers, for opening things or on the fly or tightening of screws that have come loose. Pliers can double as tweezers, nut crackers, tighten down loose bolts, pulling fuses in my car.

Also in the last few months I switched from carrying everything in my pockets to using a sling bag, so having a few extra tools that don't get used all the time is not a big deal.

I also happily perform maintenance in public places if I see the need and have the necessary tools. I recently fixed a sign in my neighborhood that came loose on one side and was making a lot of noise when the wind would blow.

That Pinecil looks pretty cool.
