What Tools Do You Keep Next to the Printer?

After reading Teptec's post that he uses a precise h6 reamer under the "Scratched Rods from linear bearings" topic I realized there may be a need for other special tools to have close by while you're printing.
Other than the standard Philips screwdriver, small pliers and x-acto knife what are other good tools to have handy?

set of tweezers (to remove debris ), side cutter to cut a nice angle to filament before loading it, bottle of isopropyl alcohol and a lint free cloth. That is exactly what lies on top of my printing cabinet

Thin spatula for pushing off brims, blobs.
Alcohol in a squirt bottle (helps remove prints)
Hemostat (medium length, curved tip) for grabbing dangling filament from the tip before the print

One of these for any thin removals to avoid greasy finger marks.

No damage to the surfaces either.
