Tools & Things
A living inventory of items I own and actively use. I optimize for a minimal
setup with maximum utility – every item here serves a specific purpose and
gets regular use. No decoration, no redundancy, just tools that work well
and last long. I believe in buying once, buying right, and keeping only what
truly adds value to my work and life.
