Andy,<br><br>It's nothing fancy or special. I don't have it sitting by me (at work)... it's probably about the same kind of stuff you lug around. The vast majority - all the core stuff plus - fits into one of those zippered nylon pouches made to carry a fat paperback book. The oldest core of that kit is in a metal Band-Aid tin inside the pouch; other items have ben added over the years (you remember the type). I'll try to recall the contents as they exist today:<br><br>Tape: PVC electrical, friction, duct. Some on small squished rolls and some wrapped around the outside of the Band-Aid tin. Used to carry medical tape there, too, but it's been in my 1st Aid Kit for several years.<br><br>Adhesives: hot-melt glue/caulk stick, very small package of 5 minute epoxy (old fashioned "toothpaste tubes" type), chunk of epoxy putty. No CA; I've had trouble with that in my gear in the past. Better container might help, but the shelf life of CA seems to be very short in a pack; too bad.<br><br>Piece of rosin-core solder ("electronics" type)<br><br>Pins and wires for frame-type back-packs.<br><br>Fine ductile steel ("iron") wire - maybe a little finer than trip wire.<br><br>Swatches of canvas & rip-stop (coated)<br><br>small amount of 1" flat nylon webbing (stiff stuff; not tubular)<br><br>Safety pins<br><br>Sewing needles - package of the heavy ones for canvas, leather, carpet, etc. and a small package of "regular" sewing needles.<br><br>Carpet thread and nylon thread (parachute rigger)<br><br>Buttons<br><br>Commercial awl with spare needles<br><br>small skeletonized crescent wrench<br><br>a few nails<br><br>a few misc threaded fasteners - some are ski-mount centric and others are GP, including a couple of aluminum nuts and bolts (easy to cut to length in the field)<br><br>2 single-edge razor blades <br><br>paracord<br><br>polyester cord<br><br>thimble<br><br>T-15 bit<br><br>#1 Phillips bit<br><br>2 allen wrenches<br><br>two small twist drill bits<br><br>eyeglass repair kit in a little container<br><br>needle threader (? it was in there - may have robbed it out, now that I think of it)<br><br>Dental floss, unwaxed<br><br>hunk of bike inner tube (ranger bands in the raw)<br><br>Hmmm - that's all I can recall at the moment.<br><br>Other repair/maintenance items are other places. For example, a field-repair kit for my Therma-Rest is attached to the draw cord on the stuff sack for the Therma Rest.<br><br>Folding diamond sharpener is external to the kit but stowed with it<br><br>Some things are trip-specific. For example, spare X-country ski binding parts come along when that is the means of transportation.<br><br>I'm sure I left things out, but this should give you the general idea. A lot of little things in a reasonable-sized package. Every item in it represents an item that I have actually used for repairs - the kit has evolved over the years. It moves from pack to pack, just like my 1st Aid kit. Simpler for me than keeping multiple kits in multiple places.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Tom<br><br>
