I just picked up a pair of mechanic's gloves after resisiting for years. How stupid I've been - my hands are spotless (no dirt, no blood, no dangling skin) after swapping out my wheels for next weekend's AX. This new-found treasure got me thinking about the tools I've accumulated over the years - and especially those that make life so dang much easier.
My faves:
- Compressor and impact wrench - 4-wheel swaps take 20 minutes!
- Extendable magnetic tool/part retriever
- LED headlight - looks stupid, but it's really nice to be able to see...
- 12-pound long-handle sledge hammer - there are few things I love better than wrecking stuff
- RotoZip spiral saw with angle grinder attachment
- A _GOOD_ socket set. It's amazing how much better life is after you pitch the crappy set and get a decent one.
- JB Stick - if you can't fix it with epoxy putty, it is not worth saving!
Post up a few of your faves!
