Default Re: What's your favorite tool?

A lift would rank right up ther for me too.....someday!

Mine is a group of tools rather than one. When I was young (5?) my grandfather gave me his tools when he retired and moved to Fla. He had three sons and five grandsons at the time, I was the youngest. Now, I'm not talking a small box of tools here. I scored the whole enchilada, Cornwell chest and loaded with Snap-on/ Bluepoint tools. He was a dealer mechanic for most of his life. These tools made him a living and he passed on a way of life for me. It took years to figure out why some of the tools were "modified" , but working on Chevrolets I eventually figured out why. I've had this box for over 40 years, and almost every tool is still in the drawer he placed them in. I still have a hard time mixing them up, guess that's why he gave them to me.
