What is your most used or favorite tool, the tool you could not live without......


I will be disappointed if there is not at least one reply saying "my apprentice"!
 
Gotta be box spanner and 12mm one for horseshoe kitchen sink getups
 
Favourite: DeWalt 18 volt drill

Couldn't live without wet vacuum - well I could live without it but after my mobile office it's probably my most useful item
 
I need to get myself a pair of running shoes, next to my stubby adjustable spanner (i expect abuse for that) is my head torch. Costs me a fortune in batteries though.
 
I could do with BA Barackus - to go debt collecting for me..God damn FOOLS!

Telescopic inspection mirror (you know -- like a dentist's mirror but extendible), for checking for leaks around joints. I use it on virtually every job. You can spot a droplet building up well before you can feel any water.

The best thing about my inspection mirror is the magnet on the other end. Ideal for picking up spanners and screwdrivers you've dropped and can't reach. I've even got m12 nuts tied on loops of string on the brass rad keys so I can go fishing for them when they inevitably get dropped :rolleyes:

Otherwise in my pocket there's always:

Stanley knife
Inspection mirror
bit-holding screwdriver (inc bits)
wide jaw 8" adjustable spanner
headtorch
