What's in Your Tool Kit?

I guess what's in your tool kit depends on the type of beadwork that you do.  Mine is for bead weaving ... a very different kit from what a wireworker would have or someone that does stringing.  This is mine.

It contains: bead scoop with tweezers, E-6000 glue, curved nose pliers, scissors, post-it notes & pen, caliper, needles (different sizes including the indispensible curved needles), FireLine in both smoke & crystal, white & beige thread, thread zapper, elastic bands, measuring tape, clear nail polish, bead reemer, and eye glasses.  There's a few other bits and pieces that I use in my beading and just need to carry with me.  It all fits into a 1.6 litre Lock & Lock box and fits nicely into my bead bag.

The elastic bands are used to pull needles through beads when things get a little tight.  Thank you Linda for that tip.  The other indispensible item are the curved beading needles...they are bent at 180 degrees and are perfect when you need to get into tight corners or doing the overlay row inside a little Julia Pretl box.
