What are your most used project consumables?

Mine are JB Weld, Pringles cans, tape of different kinds, spray paint in a can (need to get a sprayer instead,) hot glue, craft foam, sandpaper, and food cans.

I'm >>1461962 this anon. Go to your local industrial laundromat and ask if they have any junk rags you could buy/offload for them. My friend works at one and they wash/deliver washcloths for many businesses and they always have ones that get torn/permanent off coloring that they can't use anymore so they end up getting tossed/given to employees. Whenever I run out I throw him a $10 and he comes back with a garbage sack full of perfectly usable white(ish) rags. Have saved hundreds in the past few years.
