Hmm while we’re on the topic of tools:
Get a 100 pack of Zeiss wipes from amazon.
A small flashlight. (Easier to see the nooks and crannies and can scan plywood for internal defects)
An extra Glowforge-only vacuum for sucking up tiny bits.
Magnets. (Search the forum for magnet posts)
Small squirt bottles with needle tips (for denatured alcohol, water, wood glue, etc)
Denatured alcohol
Wood glue
Good strong pair of scissors (I use wiss brand tin snips in some cases)
A small coping saw or other fine hand saw for breaking down scraps
An airtight smallish plastic bin for Lasered garbage ( tiny scraps and masking material). Helps keep the smell down.
If you’re going to cut lots of non pg, a roll of masking material (search for transferrite, the threads that come up with refer to it and other brands).
Ummm what else do I use a lot?
Digital calipers.
Storage solution for materials ( I like the IKEA ALEX)
A couple rulers (you can cut your own but a good thin stainless ruler will be your friend). I have a nice 20”/50cm ruler that gets a lot of play.
Sandpaper. A good assortment with a nice sanding block. Don’t skimp here, you’ll use it a lot, a nice block will pay you back.
Blades:
Xacto knife, utility box cutter (again nicer is better. I like the Milwaukee fastback II) strong folding knife (I like the gerber freeman)
A hammer
Gorilla brand duct tape (really helps weed intricate stuff)
And probably a bunch more I’m forgetting. But no joke on the calipers, masking, scissors and duct tape. You’ll be lost without them if you do any non-PG work.
