Hammer/ chissel, wire cutting dykes, tile snippers(don't know actual name) Once in a while a drop on the floor.
Thats all I have ever used:)

Wire cutters, tin snips, occasional old PVC cutters for something massive, hammer and screwdriver for somethign really dense, and dremel tool for precision surgery

I use a pair of stainless toenail cutters (the plier type) for clipping branches. That's pretty much all I've needed so far, being that my colonies are all pretty small...
I wish I had the necessity to use a dremel or hammer and chisel... :D
