I love the smell of twin V16's in the morning..
I have a sprocket holding tool...is good for holding sprockets of course. Today I was doing a Hi Ace diff, and it was the perfect tool for adjusting the side bearings. Some tools sit in the draw for years and never get used, sometimes you need to find other uses for them.

...my dentists mirror has only been used in despairing times a couple of times, but worth its weight when it is effective ...my gas tip cleaning files are probably some of the most useful things to have around at times...multitudes of positions they can get themselves into...
Copy of Metrinch, I bought some at a show 20 odd years back. Sloppy feel makes them a drag for day to day use but come into their own when you need them + they are thin wall.
i have a few dentist tools left over from Dad but sadly lost the old drill hand piece I used to play with. Fortunately Chinese ones on ebay mean with an adaptor can be used with my dremel for transfer ports.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Having used precision jawed cutter strippers which can strip PTFE easily I used to sneer at that junky one. But I have one now as it does Normal vinyl sheathed bike wire just fine for a few dollars.
a decent Utilux folding crimp tool means no dreadful preinsulated terminals. Buy some terminals like std jap stuff, take a sample to the local trade shop, Corey's or wherever .

Yeah I was given one of those. Can't think of a use for it. Think I've put it in the dirt bike kit. Maybe I'll need to de stone a horse hoof.

Not a tool persay, but best shed purchase I've spent this year at 14 bung.
Ali blades are only like 50 bucks anyway... and they do a good job of wood too; even while spinning the right way
Owned both them, and have to disagree, cheap crap like that shits me to tears now I've used (and purchased) good stuff.

Reminds me, I used to work around glass processing plant, we used a lot of diamond files to clean up the odd edge chip. I've still got several, about 150mm long, 10mm wide and 3mm thick. They'll cut anything, don't clog up on soft stuff and don't wear at all. Excellent de-burring kit for stuff fresh off the mill.
Aye, I use a big heavy old Black and Decker 10" skillsaw with a medium tpi carbide blade with reasonably low top-rake for cutting any alloy plate from 1.5mm to 50mm 7000 series tooling plate. Must say odds are even as to which one of us will kill the other first...

The old man keeps giving me stuff local widows have given him, knowing he's in the trade, (so to speak) and not wanting it to go to waste.
Last week it was a complete number drill set and a collection of micrometre adjustable reamer parts.

I got a set of T bar allen keys from super cheap for under 20. Wish I had got them years ago. Great fairing removal with low scratch risk.
