What tool do you use everyday

[Bunit98]

Just wondering what tool(only one tool) you use everyday. If you didn't have
It what would you do? One of mine is my snap on ratcheting screwdriver. I use it every single day and love it and would be lost without it .

Tell us yours

 

[Deadsquiggles]

Crescent wrench or adjustable wrench to you fancy politically correct folks.

 

[Dj.SammyOaks]

my streamlight stylus pro. Love the thing to death, always in my pocket. Without it i would be in a very dark place (lol) and would have to deal with bulky shop lights.

 

[Kracin]

streamlight, ratcheting wera screwdriver with bondhus ball hex bits inside, and the knipex pliers wrench.... all daily use items for me.

 

[RedneckWelder]

My impact wrenches. I don't know what I would do without my 1/2 Nitrocat and 3/8 Cornwell impact wrenches.

 

[bob15]

Does a computer that controls/runs a DCR pump and test stand count?

 

[not-required]

My streamlight and my m12 fuel hex driver.

 

[redwrench60]

Pocket screwdriver. Can't even fix a sandwich without one. I even grab for it when I'm not wearing my work uniform on the weekends.

 

[Hpozzuoli]

DeWalt impact driver

 

[JDon99]

7/16, 1/2, 9/16, 3/4 comb wrench, hammer, adj wrench, 440 channellocks, needle nose, and dykes.

Oh, and a ball pein hammer.

 

[Tellingthem]

Razor knife. First thing I grab at work. If I didn't have it I'd use my keys

 

[Formula]

All my air tools.

I EDC and use daily my leatherman Juice S2, and 4Sevens mini AA XPG S5 upgraded to 3.7v 14500 Li-Ion. I like the Juice b/c for me it is the perfect size multi tool - not key chain small and not massive drag-your-pants-down big. Plus it doesn't sit have that STUPID space consuming and useless corkscrew that so many multitools seemed to have until just recently. I like the MINI AA b/c it is bright as **** for a light just barely larger than a AA battery, and it survives nearly five years of EDC use and abuse and hasn't even flinched.

 

[AndrewV]

Streamlight aswell.
And for it's place..... nothing, can replace it.

[Pumpman1968]

I usually load my back pocket with a Craftsman adjustable, Craftsman water pump pliers and a Klein 5 in 1 screwdriver when I get to work.

I've had all 3 for quite a long time.

 

[stikman56]

Impact wrench

 

[56FordGuy]

Hammer.

Beyond that, either the adjustable wrench or ratcheting screwdriver.

 

[Imcrazy]

A spoon.

What tool do I use every day? I probably can't say, here.

 

[Lhead]

My victorinox Swiss army knife. Huntsman model. Last week, I lost the one that I'd had for the last 25 years. Today, I bought a new one. The world is right once again.

 

[rob0781]

Hammer!! If i didn't have it i would likely beat stuff with wrenches and old bolts or whatever is at hands reach and hard.

 

[slip knot]

Big fricking hammer. Every thing else is just a tool.

 

[Onebean]

Dewalt 18V Hammer drill.

Let me guess, it's your *****.


Flashlight here too, Jetbeam RRT-01. 3 inches long, variable brightness (0-500 lumens) means it's never blinding and perfect for almost any application except maybe search and rescue.

 

[johndeereman]

Milwaukee 5 peice m18 kit.

 

[Bunit98]

Haha rice rocket

 

[Hammer1963]

Tool number one, my brain.

 

[bcradio]

Computer for me. I would say my brain as well, but some days that is malfunctioning too.

 

[Wanna Ride]

Let me guess, it's your *****.

Well, actually... no. I was going to say a ratchet from Harbor Freight. I just didn't want to start an uproar. Get your mind out of the gutter.

 

[619DioFan]

Work in the moving and storage industry. number one tool I use everyday is my dolly ( hand truck to you purists ) top of the line magliner. not much I can't do with it.

 

[BirdMobile]

If you don't include the obvious (brain, hands, etc.), then I'd say there are only three tools that I use every day, almost without exception.

#1 - My keychain flashlight. I'd be f'ed without it.
#2 - My cellphone. It's my link to the world.
#3 - My pocket knife. Probably the most useful (and used) tool that I own.

 

[Hpozzuoli]

Tool number one, my brain.

This is like 3 or 4 down the line for me.

 

[Steinmetz]

Fountain pen. Scientific calculator.

[bwringer]

1/4" drive Harbor Freight roto head ratchet with a 10mm deep well socket.

I mostly work on Japanese motorcycles, and this thing is in my hand way more than any other tool. I just leave the 10mm socket permanently in place on this ratchet.

It's also very common on cars from anywhere in the world, so the 10mm gets a ton of use no matter what.


I also have a HF composite ratchet set up with an 8mm socket. Same deal -- I'm gonna need it pretty much every project, so it just stays on the ratchet.


Third most used would probably be a really long 4mm ball end t-handle hex driver, 4mm hex is very common on fairing fasteners -- I've worn out at least two of these drivers. I think it's a Bondhus.
