Don't have any pics of @DaveDreads saved sadly

Might get one of these as a breaker bar.

Half inch drive ratchet with a hammer on the end. And we're so you know it's going to be good.

I just can't justify £80+ on a hammer/ratchet lol

lol that's some proper audience targeting!

"How many people use ratchets as hammers?"

"Everyone"

" let's make a ratchet hammer!"

Genius!

It even comes with an extension and podger. So you can podge and hit things harder

 

[Jaff.]

[Jekyll]

I like a ratchet. My favourite is my Birzman 1/2" one. Not sure why, I just like it.

I can't remember the rating And I cba to look but I've got one of those! Best £50 ever

Actually, my favourite tool cost about 50p

Invaluable for messing about with the car. Dropped bolts? No problem

I dropped a sidelight bulb inside a headlight once and one of these saved me hours of time taking the bumper off and light out!

Great bit of kit!

Very flattering lighting there, poon.

I see those black head removal creams have really worked well on your skin, Lee.

My little baby 4lb lump hammer. Gets in the tight spaces and smacks things a treat.

[Scrooge]

Ooo I like that, how many teeth?

 

[Jekyll]

I think it's 72 tooth, but not 100% sure. It's nice and fine and is a nice ratchet. Has a good weight to it.

Here's a link: https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/tools/birzman-12-inch-ratchet-wrench/

I've had mine about 2/3 years and it's been faultless, but from memory I paid closer to £30.

 

[bloke]

these come in handy from time to time...

Linky/what do I search? I've done exactly that and had it left in the light for the past couple of months!

I love the way that you hold things in pictures mate, it looks rehearsed with much purpose and elegance.

 

[Jekyll]

Like a fine flute.... and that's how I treat them.

 

[Budgie]

Because car tools are gay:

Cutting things FTW.

@Liam. What was her name again?

 

[alistairolsen]

Really depends what you mean.
My most used/relied upon tools, which I like for their quality is probably my halfords socket set from years ago, the proper one with the deep sockets and so on. These have been responsible for rebuilding countless cars, engine swaps, roadside fixes in the alps:

For being so much better than the old butane ones and so useful for localised high heat car applications, household tasks, fireworks, barbeques....

But along a similar veign to earlier, the only one thats ever made me emotional, mainly relief is this:

Without a doubt this. A rivnut gun. I only got it at the end of last year and its been used so so many times. I can't believe I hadn't got one before. Perfect for P clips in the car, mounting fire extinguishers, using it to secure my gearstick housing, door pulls, abs module when the original threads failed, used it to make my pms coil pack bracket captive so I didn't have to use nuts and bolts, holding brake lines to the car. This particular model that has now been discontinued goes from m4 to m12 too and was around £35 or so. Ordered some carbon steel rivnut selections from Amazon and they're lasting me ages.

 

[KitsonRis]

Dremmel.

But just purchased some deep 1/2 inch sockets with a nylon sleeve for the wheels. They may come in handy.

My breaker bar! Has yet to fail me.
