The previous HD PanAmerica thread seem to have gotten derailed by a discussion of tools so I thought I'd start another devoted to the tools we use. If you have recommendations, suggestions or stories please share. The photo below of a homemade combo (courtesy of Henzilla, thank you) reminds me of my father-in-law, a farmer who had his own homemade combo tool he carried everywhere, except to church. He was working in the farrowing section of his barn one time when a sow made threatening moves toward him, he threw his combo tool at her in an effort to get her to back off and hit her square between the eyes, killed her instantly. We never tired of retelling that story.
My experience over the years has been that money spent on good tools has been worth it. I recently bought some JIS bits made by Vessel, quality stuff that will belong to my son some day. So, hand tools, power tools, cordless tools, multi-tools, are all topics of interest. Gotta be more fun than discussing the price of gas.
