Tools
A grip uses some tools typically used by mechanics and construction workers. As in those vocations, grips need hand tools at the ready and most carry the following items: a razor knife, an eight-inch adjustable crescent wrench, a 25-foot tape measure, a 3/16" hex speed-wrench, a multitool, a small flashlight, a permanent ink marker, and work gloves. Additionally, a grip will also carry a torpedo level, spring clamps, and a roll of 2" black paper tape or gaffer's tape on his or her belt.

Famous quotes containing the word tools:
“The study of tools as well as of books should have a place in the public schools. Tools, machinery, and the implements of the farm should be made familiar to every boy, and suitable industrial education should be furnished for every girl.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The besetting sin of able men is impatience of contradiction and of criticism. Even those who do their best to resist the temptation, yield to it almost unconsciously and become the tools of toadies and flatterers. “Authorities,” “disciples,” and “schools” are the curse of science and do more to interfere with the work of the scientific spirit than all its enemies.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
