Favourite Tool/Job Aid

[Boat]

I've been doing more work around the house lately and I was thinking about the tools I use the most, and I easily came up with my top 3.
Disclaimer: I am definitely not a handyman, but this this my main weaponry!

1:
This is kind of cheating because its a "Multi tool" but :Leatherman Wave. I use it all the time for taking tags off new clothes, electronic repairs, opening those vacuum packed eletronics. Camping!



2:
Dirtdevil Scorpion hand vac. This is great for all around use. It comes with a carpet brush which is awesome for doing stairs and whatnot.


3. Air compressor. Nuff said!


What about you?

1) Leatherman as well.
2) Retractable screw driver with long bits. I'm an idiot for misplacing stuff so this is perfect for me and it's got the long bits to get at the deeper screws. Can't find a picture of it, but got it from home depot and you cannot remove the bits, you press the button and the bit shoots out and press it again and it retracts.

I used to always reach for my bosch impact (identical to what is pictured above) but ever since I bought this makita set, it's all I use (except for big jobs).

Coffee is my ultimate weapon when anything needs to get done. Any time, any place, coffee is always there to help me get stuff done.

If it doesn't work or fit, hit it harder!

Park Tool IB-2 (I have multiple sets) comes with me everywhere I go. Its like my cell phone, I feel naked without it.

Easilly the best cyclists multi-tool on the market IMHO.
Others disagree with me, but they're wrong...

I borrowed the impact one day at work (automotive) and ordered the new 20v max the second I got home haha.

Absolutely no real difference between the 12v and 20v as far as power, the battery probably lasts longer on the 20.

[Maxt]

Definitely my most useful tool.

What do you think of the Makita one? Thinking of picking up a cordless impact set and having a tough time choosing between Makita. Dewalt, and Ridid. I was gonna stay with Ryobi cause i already have their cordless weed wacker with battery, but the reviews are hit and miss.
