Whats the best tool you own?

[littlespark]

A 12oz hammer with the striking force of a 16oz?

So much easier to hit the back of your thumb with.

I was never a good aim with a lumpy hammer. Lost count of the number of wristwatches I've clubbed to death.

M3.5 threader CK - second fixers dream of clean threaded clear road ahead.
When you haven’t got one or have lost it you really know it.
Long nose pliers I can’t do without either.

Trusty ole fluke multimeter . Used for years finding faults all over the place and paid for itself over and over .

 

[telectrix]

fluke T3. basic continuity, ac/dc volts. good for fault finding on alarms, (12V dc there or not) , and a sa bonus, approved for safe isolation checks.

I just got a fluke networks intelligent tone 200 today

It came in handy for finding a stray cat5 in a comms room.

I was considering a fluke microscanner2 but it was a bit pricey.

I feel naked without them, love them for stripping flex and T&E.

Say it fast.

Definitely not my Fluke T150, as I am sending it back due to the recall...
CK electricians pliers (now I have "found" them again in my wife's sewing box) and my DeWalt drill/driver, impact drill and multitool - those 3 are just brilliant for so many jobs. The diamond tipped blades I use for the multitool, and the other blades, I get from Saxton, and find them very hard wearing and well-priced. Finally, CK automatic wire stripper...saves so much time.
