[QUOTE="Erik Jerde, post: 145631, member: 8276"] Re: What to take on a FreeLance Job? I always bring basic hand tools, light, pen. I'll bring call specific tools depending on the job. I usually toss in a small power drill/screwdriver after having to un-crate some gear by hand once. Multi-meter, laptop, various testers usually find their way into the bag. Sometimes it's dependent on how secure I feel the site is. I guess what it comes down to is that I bring all my own personal gear and some stuff to do minor fixes (though I did re-solder an entire snake on one gig once, eww). I feel like equipment used on stage for making the show happen is the responsibility of the provider. Sometimes I'll bring my own stuff for some of that to make my job easier or more enjoyable but it should be replacing gear already there not filling a hole. If I'm filling too many holes too often for a provider then we have to talk about a rental agreement. [/QUOTE]
