If you have you're own project you are working on, take it with you and bring it over to work on. Mitch will be happy to look at your project and see if he can help you out with problems you're facing.
If you do have your own preferred soldering iron and related, you are of course very welcome to bring it over. More tools means less waiting to share stuff!
