Tools. We have all got them. Tools for mechanicking, plumbing, decorating, metal working, gardening, etc.
I then thought out of all the tools we have which is the one if it wad taken away from you that you would miss most.
In my case it would be my metalworking bench vice. The amount of times you use it for all and many different tasks is massive. Yes, there are ways you can hold somethings with clamps etc. but none are as good or as easy than a good vice. I have just changed mine for one of those Clarke types that have a rotating head with different jaws and a rotating base so that you can position it at any angle you want. The only thing it has not got is the quick move lever to allow width changes to be done quickly.
What is your most favourite/important tool?
