Thats right naked hard core pics of your favourite tools. I know most of us are avid tool collectors so lets get em out. If you think you have something special that you use a lot or is perfect for that certain job that only comes up once in a blue moon. Post it. Doesnt have to be pretty, can be beaten and punished share your favourites! Group shots are fine too! If your sorting your bag and tipping the crud out of all the crevices and that shattered gas tape roll that unravelled itself. Then why not spread your loot and take a snap. Just try not to drool on your own tool.
 
To start us off heres a little peek at my service ratchet set. 1/4" Wera zyklop.

Great tools!! Get a set.
its well worth it.

i dont really want to post much up here.

could it be moved to the arms?
as if we are showing off valuable tools then its asking for trouble...

Good point killy. Mods would you mind shunting this thread over to the protective embrace of the plumbers arms?!?!
 
still got my 1/2" Hilka socket bought fm Halfords when I was 16, original rachet works as well as ever, even better it cost around £10 rather than £15 as they mispriced it 🙂 safe to say thats coming up 40 years ago 🙁

Don't have a picture as out with dogs but my milwakiee m18hacksall . If it's stuck it will cut it, if it's awkward to get into she will cut me a way in, if it's broken down it will cut it off the wall and into the various scrap bins. Coffins, elson tanks, 54mm copper, swa cable she works on them all. Other than the 10mm socket driver I use for test nipples and my crescent grips (in bag with fga and regin) it's the tool I use the most. Used a new blade to make sarnies with more than once!
 
talk yourself back in. I love it every part of it oozes quality. and when the case is open it makes a great weighted non slip parts tray for those pesky case screws.
 
tis good, it isn't an impact driver its an impact ratchet so its slow but it is fairly powerful.
its great for restricted spaces as you just have to get it on the nut or screw and press the paddle in, no trying to lever the ratchet with hardly any space.

tempted to get a set of crows feet to see if i can use it on 15 and 22 compression nuts to free them up when there isn't any space to move an adjustable 🙂
 
Killy you must have the most expensive and largest set of tools on this forum! Where do you keep them all ? I do a lot of general building work as well as plumbing and I struggle to keep all my tools in my lock up
