What is your favorite tool?
Just wanted to know what everyones favorite tool is. It could be one you use at work, or at home.
Mine is one of my hand planes.

is that where you hold your hand out the window of a moving car and make airplane noises?
I like my impact wrench (1/2 drive, Craftsman) best.
In life many men take the path of righteousness, some take the path many others follow (G.M. owners, for example), some take a more arduous path, some a simpler path. I, sir, took the PSYCO-PATH!!

Mine would have to be my angle grinder, believe it or not. I can use a grinding disc, a sanding disc, or even paint-stripping discs in it. Or I can put in a cutting wheel and go to town, since I don't have a Sawz-all or chop-saw. I'd be lost without it....either that or have some REALLY big biceps by now.

Today it's got to be my new hammer and dollie set I just bought at Napa.
I can't wait for warmer weather to try them out.
