At least you had the soldering gear!
I thought that the way this stuff worked is that the tools you bring are the
ones you will not need. It is the ones you didn't bring that you will need.
The conclusion: bring everything in the shop and things will be just fine.
That's one of the reasons my Jeep needs 2x the stopping distance when I am
astro-bound: I am loaded up to the ceiling with gear I never need.
