I really like the thinking behind this repair kit. Is it multiple use, is it big and heavy?

Hopefully it is multi-use, a lasting quality repair, and lighter than a regular tool kit. Makes a lot of loot collecting a lot more exciting and attractive. Hopefully there will be a lot of worth while tech and salvage that can be harvested, made operational and up graded.

Traveling salvager or tinker could be a worth while adventure life style with the right gear, and plenty of salvagable items to harvest, repair and up grade. Sell, trade and barter with.

Could you acquire one early on in the game, or as an incentive to upgrade a lower tier pledge?

It is quite portable, as many of the UG's technologies are. And it can be used one time per item.

Could you acquire one early on in the game, or as an incentive to upgrade a lower tier pledge?

This is just in-game item which could be found relatively easy in any bunker of the UG.

So a drone or MPM could benefit from a set of machine tools for repair, refurbishment and fabrication work?.

That would be logical. But usually engineering drones of the UG have built-in tools already. Despite that, I agree: for the game mechanics any Synthetic should use Repair skill for self healing (smth. like First Aid skill for Human Species).
