Tools of the trade

Looking at the corner of my bench when I broke for lunch, I had to laugh:

Man, you got a very tidy workbench. I keep mine out of harm's way in a pocket on the side of my lunch bag.

They'd be fearsome if there was an impact wrench in the pic

Forgive me. I didn't look closely enough. My bad.

I use less of that than you might think. I probably ought to have had a can of wood filler, but I am not currently at the finish stage of the project...

Thanks! That is one of the first run of Grands, and was my all-day-every-day mod for several years. It's in a drawer right now, just waiting for a return to action one of these days.

Yeah, I own three-- wait, I just bought a Woodvil-- four myself, but all my metal ones are SL/LP. They do not look like that one I also don't take mine to work, they stay at the house.

Geez, a small Dremel is the biggest, most powerful tool I use on my gear...

If it moves and it ain't supposed to, use the duct tape. If it ain't moving and it's supposed to, use the WD40.

Gotta love duct tape (prom outfits, I think they have a competition every year...)

I haven't used duct tape on any of my mods (yet) but I'm thinking it might be oh-so-helpful with leaks, LOL, though wicking properly is likely the best idea of all.... But, past a certain point, I'm betting I might be open to duct tape....
