Most useful NON astronomical accessories

[Ukastronomer]

I may have said this before if so, sorry.

But.............

There are some things that are not for Astronomy that to be honest I could not live without when doing, or rather modding my gear.

1. Black and Decker workmate. I have had mine for 20 years, and it is as good now as ever.

2. Electric screwdriver and hex set for undoing all scope parts

3. Metal files large and small

4. My faithful OLD B and D battery drill.

I have lost count of the gear I have repaired, made or modified and without these things now including tap and dye set my Astronomy would be worse off.
