My EDC

[Sparky415]

Following on from Nomads 'non EDC bag'

Because I have been listening to you lot I've decided I need a EDC bag
In my case it will be an Ever Day in my Car bag for the occasions that I don't have a toolbox in the back
(I think that my toolbox is my EDC)
So it will be my back up EDC, hopefully it will live in my glove box (its too fat for the glove box, its going under a seat now  )
There's a separate first aid kit in the car as well
This is what I've got so far 

Bag
Multi tool
Multi knife
Screwdriver set
Adjustable spanner
Super wrench
Electrical tape
Electrical tester
Torch
Cable ties
Pen
Paper
WD40
Para cord

Ear plugs
Plasters
Baby wipes
Hay fever pills

Things to add one day
Multi meter
Gaffer tape

I like your plan 

I keep some stuff in the car but nothing of any value as I fully expect some toerag to remove it 

[Zed]

very nice set up tony 

[ryan1835]

a martingdale checkplug might be worth having in it too 

[Sparky415]

Good idea (love them tools!) 
But I'm having trouble stuffing everythin in carefully packing the bag and I don't think I can get much more in it (I don't want a bigger bag, this one sadly would not fit in the glove box)

[ryan1835]

Choccy blocks? 3 in each size might be a good idea untill you come to work on three phase stuff =p

Pfft. Get a bigger bag, then a bigger car. Simples!

Looks like a well thought through setup to me mate Which was the lucky multitool?

[Sparky415]

I am finding it hard to stop stuffing bits an pieces in there (connectors ) but I must stop as its too full
It is my 'Stanley' one (it won't be missed)

This is harder than I thought! 


Bigger car? 

[ryan1835]

im going to make you have a full toolkit before long i can tell

[Sparky415]

So I will be carrying....
A tool kit,
A back up tool kit,
And an emergency back up tool kit just in case

sounds good to me!

What is wrong with twisting the wires together and applying copious amounts of electrical tape 

[Styerman]

I would throw in some mechanics gloves and bailing wire , handy stuff , and of course condoms .

The GF is never going to understand the condoms Chris!

[Styerman]

Then whips and lube are out of the question too ! Seriously the bailing wire is very usefull .

Chris

[Sparky415]

Chris
Silly question but what is bailing wire?
Thin single strand steel wire?

[Styerman]

Thin solid mild steel wire ( at one time used in hay bails hence the name ) , its about 18 ga. or thereabouts , sometimes galvanized , sometimes with a black finish . good for putting broken bits back on car silencers ( mufflers to you US peasants ) .

Can and will save your sorry butt.

I have just asked my GF and apparently my Butt is 'fine' 



Cheers Chris
