Things I Can’t Work Without

I use this for multiple purposes, from rolling out wallpaper to hanging small overhead shots. 

It’s a powerful and small hard drive. I take a handful of these with me everywhere I go!

Best invention ever. Scanners. I tell you, I scan everything!

This is where I go to think.
