Having the ultimate set of hand tools can make you the most popular tech on a tour. It also means you will constantly be updating your kit with newer models as you replace the tools that were permanently borrowed, as well as all the expendables (screws, rivets, tape) exhausted.

Second was gaff tape, because as we all know, 95 percent of all stage problems can be fixed with a roll of gaffa. Below is a list of the most popular tools mentioned, how much they cost, and where to order one.
