from the current (spanish) wikipedia article on dissection materials:

Bisturí de tamaño adecuado para el objeto de estudio, Sirve para hacer insiciones o cortes de organos y estructuras que sean blandos.
Pinzas gruesas con bocado.
Pinzas finas para manipulación de estructuras delicadas.
Pinza Diente de ratón: sirve para pellizcar el objeto que está siendo disecado.
Aguja enmangada.
Alfileres.
Tijeras curvas / rectas.
Pinza Mosquito
y una buena imaginacion
that is, [thing, thing, stuff, a lot of different kinds of tongs, some needles, some scissors] "and a good imagination".

maybe the people who told me to become a mortician weren't that far off?

when i was younger i wanted to go into the science of how wounds heal so i could poke open sores and cysts and things with needles. and by 'younger' i mean 'a week ago'. ehehe.
