Besides the usual hammer, power drill, basic hand tools, duct tape, etc, what are a few tools or items everyone should consider having around the house?
It's not really a 'carpenter' thing, but a decent pair of channel locks are great for many things.
Toothpicks are also something most people don't think about, but they can be wonderfully useful for when you have unscrewed pretty much anything as a filler to make sure the screws grab.
I'll edit if I think of other unconventional items that are good to have on hand.
