Default RE: Archery work shop

Greg/MO gave me a link to a small press the other day....but I'd like to know if you guys have any "can't live without" items in your shops.
The vise is probably up there too... makes it real nice to have both hands free when tying in my nocksets and d-loops (as can be seen in the instructional thread at the top of the tech forum).

I really love the lasers and levels, but I wouldn't call them a must-have. They really help to build confidence in your initial setup, but I've set up so many now that I can pretty much eyeball centershot and everything when first putting the rest on and fine-tune from there through walk-back and broadhead tuning.

The G5 arrow-squaring device is pretty cool, and if you order the Cabela's cutoff saw, do like I did and spring for the Apple rollers that fit right on top so that you can spin-test all your broadheads and check insert installation..

Hmmm... what else? A good set of Allen wrenches... You also need a good scale for checking draw weight. I'm going from total memory here and these are the biggies that jump out at me right now. Oh, a good collection of Bic lighters (for burning the ends of serving and d-loops among other knot ends...

That's it for now.
