Life does not exist without a high-end tablesaw.

True dat! Followed by drill press and router (I have three and use them all)

Wished I had space for a lift. 4 jack stands is the best I can swing. I could almost see having a variation on a pit but no way I could sell the spouse on it.

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/Screwdriver and all its accessories (bits) had been discontinued.

Sears - $45.57

Hatchet...all purpose tool: chop, drive screws, pound nails and even has a section to remove nails.

At home its my Bahco adjustable wrench. Its my goto for any nut tightening job. At work its my Lixie iron head deadblow hammer. It will seat anything in the vise and make it stay.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

My Troy Bilt trimmer with electric start and a blower attachment.

[VanDeKoik]

My RotoZip.

But my hand-powered drill is a joy to use. Almost therapeutic.

My calipers were generally really useful with my engineering job, but not at home. ;-)

You’re going to be jealous ,, 2 weeks ago I saw something yellow in the grass along the highway near a ramp... I stopped to check it out and it was a 16# hammer with a medium length fiberglass handle ... someone took the ramp way too fast... it cleaned up perfect and looks great next to my “tiny” 8# hammer...

I could not live in this world without a COMPRESSOR.
Air up your tires, remove bolts with an impact wrench, air ratchet works lots better with it,
paint anything in a hurry and then there are my three nail guns....

I can't believe nobody said this yet.

drill, with all the goodies. I have my own. Hubby has his. He scatters his, I keep mine in the box where I can find them.

I use a small soft strap wrench for the kitchen and the medicine chest for those stubborn lids.

2. My Makita driver drill box. Bullet point drill bits, spade bits, hole saws and about every driver/security bit to be had, can’t open it with this, use #3.

1. Old Leatherman tool, use it every day. Got it with Marlboro Adventure Team points. I DID say it was old...
