Re: Favorite Garage/shop tools poll

My most used tools would be:
My Matco 3/8" flex head ratchet. I can't believe I waited 30 years to get one.

NEBO worklight. Best flashlight ever! Bought my first one in 2016 it's been dropped from 6 foot up on to concrete dozens of times still works great. I did manage to step on it and break the magnetic stand off of it. I now own 3 of them and have given several as gifts.

Plastic dial calipers. They live on the work bench and get drug under the truck, out to the wood shop, to the parts store, over to the lathe or mill. Everyday accuracy, but not for use on hot steel. They have a tendency to melt.
