A well equipped toolbox is always a plus as you can quite often be working remotely and without others to assist. Though people usually allow you to borrow it's not good practice as this is how tools get lost. A good knife (preferably Leatherman or similar) is pretty essential together with tape, screwdivers, hammer and nails, You can never have enough.
