I like having a set of ratcheting wrenches... saves a ton of time in tight places or normal places for that matter

Re: Post your Favorite Tool!
This big feller is pretty useful:

It won't fit into tight spaces, but I'm extremely happy with it as a glovebox tool. If I need a smaller tool for a tighter space, I keep it in the shop. This is probably the best glovebox tool ever...
This is #2 for the glovebox:

Re: Post your Favorite Tool!
The tool I use the most though, hands down, would be a torque wrench. I have 3, sadly all are 1/2" drive.
I may attempt to trade one of them for a 3/8" drive, currently I just use a 1/2-3/8 adapter when necessary.

Re: Post your Favorite Tool!
I dont even use a grinding disk on it lol, I use cutting wheels for everything
I should use my bench grinder more, but it is hard in a condo
My neighbors dont like me much some times. Especially when I paint bumpers and such on the Patio then let them dry in the condo... the hallways tend to get a little fumy

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
