What are some less-obvious items that you must have in your shop? (kbin.social)

I'm very new to woodworking and I'm focusing on learning how to use hand tools. I'm slowly acquiring more tools and setting up my workshop, but I just know that there will be something super useful that I haven't thought about, and won't realise that I need it until I actually need it.

What items can you just not live without in your shop?

I use denim to keep disposable razors sharper longer based on some random thing I read.. never even thought to bring some out to the shop for stropping. Good tip.

Do you use it dry or with compound for razor blades? I’ve wanted to try it with razor blades but haven’t tried it yet.
