Journeyman Tools Custom Tool Kit

For every job there is a proper tool; the bigger the job, the more tools a technician needs. Journeyman Tools Inc. knows the importance of a well-made, reliable, easy-to-use tool to a mechanic or shipwright, and their line of custom tool kits are designed and built for the hardworking and discerning professional. Journeyman custom tool kits feature all the tools common to specific kits, like the kits used to work on a walker or a starfighter, with the addition of a number of specialty implements as dictated by the purchaser. Each tool is custom-fit to the purchaser using a number of variables including grip, handedness, strength, arm length, and even working style. Once ordered, the tools are packed in a custom-built, locking tool box with each tool nestled into its own form-fitted foam cutout to keep it securely in place during use or transit.

Using a Journeyman Tools custom tool kit grants the user for whom the kit was built :eB: to any skill check made to maintain or repair an item, computer, weapon, vehicle, or starship. A character attempting to use Journeyman tools made for someone else suffers :eK: to the same checks. Custom tools can be customized for another user with extensive, and often expensive, modification.

DUM-Series Pit Droid

Produced in huge numbers by Serv-O-Droid, the ubiquitous DUM-series droids are a common sight in workshops, mechanics garages, and racing pits all across the galaxy. Introduced during the days of the Galactic Republic, these droids were constructed at the Serv-O-Droid facility on Cyrillia for labor, repair, and light construction use. Throughout the decades during which the DUM series has been in service, these droids have gained an unfortunate reputation as poorly programmed, hapless, and clumsy things that are often not worth the trouble of keeping. They are also highly disposable, thanks to their cheap construction and low price point, most DUM-series droids are simply destroyed or recycled when damaged rather than repaired. Scrapyards throughout the galaxy are litered with the remains of DUM-series droids, and few individuals consider them to have any worth at all.Despite their reputation and the common prejudices against them, DUM-series droids are quite capable within the narrow range of their abilities. DUM-series droids stand roughly one meter high. They have a spindly, almost skeletal appearance, with long, thin limbs and agile digits. They have a broad, flared, dome-shaped head dominated by a single large, round photoreceptor equipped with multi-spectrum scanners that detect microscopic damage in metals and other solid materials. Designed to work in large packs, they are equipped with a built-in comm system that includes a constant data link allowing groups of the droids to work together more efficiently and effectively without vocal communications. In addition, DUM-series droids can lift and carry weights well out of proportion to their tiny size. When deactivated, DUM-series droids can fold up into rough cubes covered by their broad heads. This allows them to be stored and shipped easily. They can also use this mode to protect themselves from danger such as crashing vehicles or falling debris.While not particularly well like by the general galactic population or well supported by Serv-O-Droid, DUM-series droids are still a common sight in the galaxy. They are especially popular in the Outer Rim, where their relative strength and mechanical programming make them excellent assistants to poorer shipwrights and vehicle buildings. DUM-series droids are also closely associated with Podracing, nearly every Podracing team keeps a stable of these droids to maintain their vehicles and salvage scrap from crashed competitors along racecourses.
