What's the one tool in your garage that you absolutely love?

[Thump553]

Portable (runs off AC or car battery) electric chain saw sharpener. I should get a commission for the number of these I have sold after people try mine.

air wrench.

 

[Manuwell]

Duct tape

 

[Squisher]

There is nothing I use more than my Bosch 12v cordless drill. I paid $150 for it ten years ago and I can't break it.

I have a dremel tool and the only thing I've ever used it for is trying to sharpen my lawn mower blades. I guess I'm just missing the point of what all this thing is supposed to be able to do. heh.

But mine is in my workshop and not in the garage so it gets beat out by the table saw, miter saw, etc. heh.

 

[DainBramaged]

My 36" bolt cutters.

 

[TallBill]

I have no electronic tools whatsoever.. so maybe a hammer? I dunno, I don't fix or build anything.

 

[Toastedlightly]

air ratchet ftw.

 

[Philippine Mango]

monkey wrench.

 

[zylander]

My TIG machine.

Yep, you can all the tools you need with one of those.



I :heart: my drill press. Floorstanding Craftsman circa 1953.

 

[49erinnc]

Powered: Cordless drill
Non powered: Channel locks. When nothing else will work, channel locks are your friend. 🙂

 

[JulesMaximus]

I'd say my air compressor...followed by both of my air nail guns. Those things are so damned handy.

 

[Kelvrick]

1/2 inch torque wrench. Wrench, torque wrench, hammer, leverage bar, self-defense tool all in one.

 

[Safeway]

Vertical mill, horizontal mill, table saw, metal lathe, wood lathe, plasma cutter, TIG welder, MIG welder, air compressor, drill press ... I can't just pick one thing. Maybe the vacuum system that keeps the dust and shavings in check.

 

[Juno]

dremel rotary tool and solder iron.

computer modding FTW!
