The Switchblade Screwdriver looks cool ( https://www.toolsforstagecraft.com/screwdrivers.html )
Thanks for all the tips.Grant, that Loggerhead looks interesting, but I think I would like a LM Crunch or locking vise pliers, so I can clamp things tight and hold pieces steady when I need to use the dremel to cut/grind small pieces of metal. But, the Loggerhead site has the Bit Dr 10XR I like this, but it's $25 + $46 shipping!
The Charge will be swapped for the Crunch I just got myself for Christmas. My modded Wave is hidden in there somewhere. And I'll swap the Squirt P4 for an ES4, in the small case on the right. This little pouch is a very basic set, for changing fuses in plugs, rewiring a plug, etc. So there's a little bit of duplication that I need to think through.I've given up on a hammer! And so far there's no room for a precision bit set, but I've found two suppliers of the 1/4" hex to 4mm system 4 adaptor, so may get one and some precision bits, then be able to use them in a regular hex bit screwdriver. I don't think the precision bits will take up much space.
Part of the reason I wanted to assemble this toolkit was because I was inspired by the EDC toolset I've seen carried in a Maxpedition Fatty, or Bulldog Molle CMT Medic pouch, or a Vanquest FTIM Husky. My kit is not for EDC, but for convenience, i.e. in a bedside draw for whenever a small DIY job needs doing, or some LM modding, without needing to pull out a toolbox.But these pouches are not cheap, so I decided to make my own using a CD carry pouch, an old (green) kitchen chopping mat, and some elastic ribbon.

Yes, a Hultafors 7.5" wrecking bar from Amazon add-on --- £4.99. Already had some use prying apart some nailed boxes --- better than using a blade...! The hemostats sound a good idea, but I don't have much space left so I'll see what I feel is missing. Last week the Wave, Crunch, both ratchet screwdrivers and the pry bar got some use when I took apart an Ikea storage box, cut it down to size, and re-assembled it in a different way, so the cats could use it as a step to jump up onto the top of a cupboard... I'm kinda keen on getting a Wera pistol ratchet screwdriver, but it may be too large and I already have the stubby ratchet driver. The only tool I feel I am missing is a hammer, but not sure if I could/should fit one in --- Tesco's sell a small stubby one which my wife thinks I don;t need
