Of all of the tools I own, this is my favorite:



My head torch is slightly different, but looks very similar. There have been countless times where I need a 3rd hand to hold a light. With my trusty head torch, I don't have to fiddle around in the dark to figure out where things need to go.

What's yours?

My favorite tool ... a 4 foot long stainless steel tube I use as a Breaker Bar on the handle of my Ratchet.
I'm not as strong as I was in my youth.

A length of wire on which I glued a rare earth magnet. I'm good at dropping small important parts into dark crevasses and this thing has saved me most times. Best time was a washer down the timing cover opening.

My favorite is the strainer I use to hold back the ice when pouring my martinis.
