I’m looking to start keeping hardware for prints that need additional parts to complete them. A Pi case that I printed needed screws that I don’t have on hand and needed to go searching for some.

It got me thinking to keep a container of stuff ready that would get used often, but I don’t really know what to keep on hand. What do you have readily available?

    Screws, nuts, nylock nuts, wing-nuts, and washers in size 6 thru 10 and 1/4". (I am American, use your equivalent metric sizes)

    Sand paper in 180 and 320 grit.

    Plastic razor blades for separating stubborn prints from your substrate or cleaning up flat support surfaces. example

    Dental picks are a nice plus too for support or print strings in small holes.
