        saws all, long 48 inch air blow gun, clemco wyatt earp gun for degreasing, big set of files for dressing up stuff and a air gasket scraper for doing heads and blocks, 1/2 drill and american made drill bits, calipers inside and outside, thread chasers for axles, best set of hole repair tools and extractors you can afford for those broken off bolts or stripped out holes, magnets of all kinds and mirrors to see behind firewalls and the usaual so u can see what u are battling, always helps to have a bolt hole size card in metric and american, those lilte headlights. Are you a diesel or gas engine guy or work on any heavy equiptment at all, got any pictures of you tool box now we can spy on???

                  Lowes is close enough I haven't worried much about stocking my shop until I need it. But when projects arise I spend well and have slowly worked up a set of tools that takes care of most everything.

                    Im not a mechanic. I like fixing my own stuff to try and save a buck. My box is a cornwell and dont have any pics yet. I also have a kennedy roll away that is full of machining tools that I know very little about, it was my granddads.

                              This may sound dumb but a good cheater pipe should never be over looked.
