My favorite tool isn't in my toolbox, it's in my pants - my right front pants pocket, that is. It's my Leatherman Skeletool with pocket clip. I use it several times a day, every single day.

the dremel gets used a lot too.

wish I could remember the brand name of the screwdriver.

it wasn’t snapon or craftsman, but wasn’t made in china either.

> I’m fond of my Yankee screwdriver.

Unfortunately they stopped making them. Two months ago I broke one of the bits and tried to get a replacement. I found out that the Yankee Drill/Screwdrive and all its accessories (bits) had been discontinued.

Change to a Canadian Picquic, better than shuffling bits in the head.

Back to original topic: My favorite is a pre-Black and Decker Porter-Cable 19.2 volt cordless drill. It comes in handy for EVERYTHING!

Be still, my beating heart!

The lift is actually pretty cheap (1700 bucks).
The building to put it in was a bit more, LOL.
