Tools that every man should own

[COPPERHEAD]

I have been trying to finish filling my roll away box. Im scared to think how much I have already spent over the last few years. I have alot of space left and need some help with tools that are a must in a tool collection. It seems everytime I go to work on something there is a tool needed I dont have, then that results in vicegrips, duct tape, or bailing wire being used in its place. So what tools are a must have? I have all the basic tools already.

We talking hand tools? A Stanley Fatmax FUBAR (Functional Utility Bar) very versatile! It's a big honkin' hammer, it's a prybar, it's a nail puller, it's an all purpose destructo-tool. It has come in handy for all kinds of jobs.

Duct tape

[jathomas437]

To name a few non-typical tools I use a lot: Strap wrench, torque wrench, Dead blow hammer, impact wrench, dremel drill, 4" side grinder...

I bought some picks that I thought i would not use. One is a hook, on is a 90, one just a point.... All different size hooks and angles. Man those have been a major but saver. Funny cause I bought them on impulse then thought I would hardly ever use them.
