Today my favorite tool was a tap wrench.
I always thought the impact driver was stupid, until I bought one. I use it all the time now when working on yard equipment/ small engines. |

M12 Fuel Installation Drill, Klein multi-bit driver, and Knipex mini cobra pliers. (Handyman)
The installation drill with 90 degree and offset attachments really kicks ass. Fits in my hand better than any other drill, more control with the high grip. |

My m18 mid torque, my m12 stubby impact and my 1/4” high speed ratchet. Cordless technology is astonishing, and id pick the mid torque, never did i think a 3/8” cordless impact would be my go to for lugs, as i mainly work on 3/4-1 tons.

ROF here and I use Channel Locks more than anything. Today I whipped out from scratch a pull behind the mower "aerator" which entailed a fair amount of welding. The Channel Locks REALLY speed things up because they don't care how hot something is. Next would be a 16' tape measure. After that I have 2400 sq. ft. of toolage to pick from.

At work: 1" travel dial indicators (I use five on different bases for different applications), Mitutoyo micrometer set 0-1" through 11"-12" (the 5" to 6" ones get the most use out of that set), Monarch 20" x 48" lathe---followed closely by a 32" x 96" Microcut lathe. The Monarch Lathe is my favorite of those. She was built in 1951.
Whoops. I forgot about the two pocket knives that i carry. I use those at work and at home (and about) probably the most. But, I don't consider them my favorite, they just live there in my pocket. At home: desktop computer, pocket knives, and a fork. Since I spend the most time on the desktop, that will likely be my favorite. Recreation: FX Dreamline air-rifle, FWB 300S air rifle, High pressure air tanks (both SCBA at 4500 psi, and SCUBA at 3000 psi to fill my PCP airguns). Here, the Dreamline is my favorite but the FWB 300S is a close second. (The FWB 300S is recoiless spring air rifle for 10 meter competition.) |

 Attached FileUse these every night at work. Favorite is the middle one, made it myself out of stainless steel, it’s used for opening 4, 5 & 6 gallon pails with screw on caps but can also open 55 gallon drums. I call it the rhino tool. Also made the left one, simply a bent section of keyway with some tubing for a handle used to pop metal and plastic caps off pails and drums. |

Hammer and a screwdriver.
 Just kidding. No, seriously, just kidding.Multimeter, amp probe, pressure gauges. Can you guess what I'm doing with those?  EDIT: Actually, 4 in 1 screw drivers, cordless drills, 3/8in ratchet wrenches with a 10mm socket probably get used more than every other tool in my shop. |

Quoted: Low voltage guy here. My 3 most used (aside from electrical tape and zip ties): DeWalt 20V 1/4” Impact Driver Irwin Vise Grip 8” Wire Strippers/Cutter Whichever precision screwdriver is in my pocket. I’ve broken several Klein ones lately, so now it’s usually either a Wiha or one from a dollar bin at the hardware shop. My favorite: Toss up between the DeWalt rotary hammer and Dremel. Both are huge time savers depending on what’s going on. I spent a bunch of hours in the last 6 months building a greenhouse. I drove hundreds of self drilling metal screws and then built 20+ benches that required hundreds of 3” deck screws. My Dewalt impact driver got a heck of a workout. I also bought an Evolution Power Tools 14 in. Steel Cutting Chop Saw that made cutting all the steel tubing very easy. It also cut PVC and wood. |
