I'd like to get a nice set of gear for the workshop, at least until I can do a full suit. Doing something steampunk would be cool.

Goggles

Best!

Some normal glasses/goggles have the loupe built in, but sitting a little low and to the center. That might work here.

Apron

A matching apron would be nice. And with some pockets, functional. Possibly a tool cuff.

Tool Belt

I like the holster style. Belt around hips, plus another around right thigh. This allows for some heavier things to be supported on the right side.

I could make a cool buckle clip out of brass. Three pieces of 1/16" brass. Basically a copy of the plastic clips on backpacks but with a spring rather than the materials tension.

Light

There's two good option, I can do one or both. Putting an LED on the goggles would be nice - it's always pointed in the right direction. But then we need power to the goggles. The other option is a lamp on my shoulder.
