Let's see what tools you've broken!

I’m very interested in seeing from those that are professional mechanics and who put their tools through serious abuse, pictures of tools they have broken/failed, and those they have worn beyond use. I’m just a weekend mechanic, so even after 20 years of use the only things that I have broken are a 12mm socket (All Trade) and pitman arm puller (HF).
