I carry my pinning stuff in a small bag similar to these (
http://www.dickblick.com/zz169/73/ ), except I bought mine at Walmart (in
the pencil aisle).

Contents are:

Mannino broaches (indented stuff below also in this little case)

"Rat tail" file and reamer
Double-ended pin vise (with a #37 drill bit in one end and a roughened 0.050
center pin in the other)


Micrometer
Nueses (sp?) gauge
Nipper
Pin punch
Pins of all sizes
Felt for rebushing if needed
Maybe some other stuff I'm forgetting right now


Shouldn't be too hard to figure out what all you need.  You might also want
to include a hypo oiler for alcohol/water mixture, but I have that elsewhere
rather than in my pinning bag.
