I'm looking to start keeping hardware for prints that need additional parts to complete them. A Pi case that I printed needed screws that I don't have on hand and needed to go searching for some.

It got me thinking to keep a container of stuff ready that would get used often, but I don't really know what to keep on hand. What do you have readily available?

I personally prefer DIN 7380 over DIN 912 aesthetically, but of course 912 has superior mechanical properties.
