20 years as a carpenter builder got me enough tools to fill a woodworking workshop, I could do with more mechanical toys ... woops I mean tools ..... the most valued tools ? thats easy, my hand held carving tools have given me hours and hours of pleasure creating traditional woodcarvings, closely followed by my home computor  ;D

Mezz, might not only be your wife  ;D

For me the list is long but before anything else is a good vice and work bench.

Then Welders oxy and arc - would love to get me a Mig - maybe for my birthday, thats coming up soon :D

Angle grinder, bench grinder.

Hand Tools, good quality sockets and combination spanners, files hammers and clamps.

My lathe is pretty handy too.

Buga it, Id love to have a whole engineering workshop at my disposal.

Well I would say my 160psi Sandblaster, as like most of you guys, my Beddie sits out side under  a man made cover, and I never get to work on it, so every few months when I look at it there are signs of surface rust, so out comes the Sandblaster, and the other thing I couldn't do with out is the Ear Muffs, so I can't hear the wife complaining when I do get to work on it, that is the sandblasting ofcourse......... ;D

sorry i call my beddy a "fat arse" because... well..... it has a fat arse. i often start a session on it with "comon fat arse lets get your nickers off (referring to paint removal)

the misses just grumbles alot when i head out to the garage for the day. she unlike some of the more liberated female minds on this site sees a love for a car as some sort of waste of time and money. i tell her that the pursuit of happiness is a international human right but she rolls her eyes and acts like im not speaking english....

its funny how they see gossip magazines and $10 trinkets as life essentials when the real game is in the garage and on the tool wall  ::)
