Video Overview

A big thanks to Han’s MODS for this incredibly detailed build video. Han takes us through a full overhaul of what he calls his “tier 3” EDC — the small, specialized tools that don’t fit neatly in a pocket but are too useful to leave at home. Instead of settling for a bulky pouch with no organization, he engineered a custom 3D-printed modular rack inspired by Earthling EDC’s Pocket Rack design. Housed inside a clean Frost River Canvas Belt Pouch, the result is one of the most thoughtful EDC organizer builds we’ve seen. If you carry small tools daily, this one’s worth your full attention.

Editor’s Insight

A big shoutout again to Han’s MODS for putting in the work on this build — the level of thought here is rare, and the video is a masterclass in iterative EDC design.

Most EDC content focuses on what you carry. This video focuses on how you carry it — and that shift in framing is what makes it so valuable. Han organizes his carry into tiers: the core daily items in his pockets, and then a “tier 3” pouch for the small, specialized tools that don’t fit anywhere else but still matter. Nail clipper, tweezers, charging cables, a compact power bank — things you reach for weekly if not daily.

The problem with most organizer pouches is they treat all items the same. Everything just floats around until you need it, and then you’re fishing through a jumbled mess. Han’s solution is elegant: a custom 3D-printed rack system inspired by Earthling EDC’s Pocket Rack and ROM Turo designs. The rack uses elastic bands threaded through brass rods on a carbon fiber top layer, holding each item securely in its own lane. A magnetic modular panel on the back handles flat items separately. The whole assembly drops neatly into the Frost River Canvas Belt Pouch, which clips cleanly to a belt loop.

What stands out most is the attention to failure modes. Han doesn’t just build something that works — he builds something that fixes what his old setup got wrong. His previous multitool had a design flaw that made the blade hard to access under pressure. His old nail clipper was too bulky. The pouch itself was a cheap fake that didn’t hold its shape. Each new piece addresses a real-world problem he identified through daily use.

The TSA-friendliness angle is worth calling out. The NexTool Mini Sailor Lite Multitool he switched to has no blade at all. For frequent travelers, that’s not a compromise — it’s a feature. You get pliers, scissors, screwdrivers, a SIM tool, and even a glow insert without the headache of having a blade flagged at security. The rest of the carry follows the same logic: every item is intentional, sized right, and placed to be found fast.

The 3D-printed rack is the real star, though it does require access to a printer and some willingness to iterate on the design. Han references Earthling EDC’s Pocket Rack community for people who want similar results without the DIY component. Even if you never print a single layer of filament, the organizational principles here translate directly to any pouch setup: group by function, secure by format, and build for repeatability.

For anyone who’s ever emptied out a pouch looking for a specific cable or tool — this video is the answer to that frustration. Han’s build isn’t just organized. It’s optimized.

Closing Remarks

If your small tools are living in a pile somewhere, Han’s MODS just handed you the blueprint to fix that. The combination of a purpose-built modular rack and a clean canvas pouch turns a chaotic tier 3 carry into a polished system. The individual items — the NexTool multitool, the inCharge cable, the MOFT power bank — are all solid picks on their own. Together, they form a carry that’s ready for anything from a scooter repair to a cross-country flight. Check out all the gear above and see what fits your own EDC build.
