I nearly always carry more tools than I need, but I would like to be a bit more selective. Just remember a role of Duct tape.
I have quite a lot of modern imperial tools, but I think I will make a point of looking for some old brand grandads tool box tools. I like collecting tool at automotive jumbles and car boot sales.

You can't be considered a real Alaskan if you don't have at least 2 rolls of duct tape.
I'm assuming an "automotive jumble" is a swap meet. What's the US equivalent of car boot sales? I know that the Brits call a trunk a "boot" and a hood a "bonnet" but not sure exactly what a car boot sale is.
Interesting bit about Jubilee clips. Kind of like the Kleenex or Band-Aid thing over here - every tissue is a Kleenex and every self-adhesive bandage is a Band-Aid.
I have collected a number of vintage tools, even some Ford ones.
