I agree with that. You don't want to run to the hardware store every time you need a screw or nut.
I also agree with George- my father was a master at fixing everything with duct tape & vise grips!
For myself, I can't bear the thought of leaving any tools behind- the ones you leave are always going to be the ones you need! So for me I'm bringing as much as I can except something like a table saw which eats up a lot of space.
