[V8] Must have tools thread

[diemarthadie@aol.com]

 Magnet On A Stick
my saviour :)
 
in the last two weeks it has:
 
1) rescued a 3 year old's toy from impossible location inside a furniture nook (don't ask)
2) rescued her idiot father's keys from the storm drain in front of the house (coffee...more coffee)
3) found 4 nuts and washers inside the frame mounts of the Taurus (not my doing... really)
 
If you don't have one of these things in your tool kit... oh the dents you'll put in your forehead later...

Man, that telescoping magnetic thingy has been a lifesaver many times.

There's nothing quite like dropping something down into the dark
recesses of the V8, uttering the requisite curse words....then
remembering that you have this life saver.

The thread about the Craftsman bolt extractors got me to thinking about
what other good or handy tools I am missing out on!

So here it is, the must have tools thread.. We all have a wrench set,
and a big hammer. I am taking about the stuff some of us might not have.
My current garage MVP is my Craftsman flex socket set.. These work great
when clearance is an issue. Don't confuse these with using a regular
socket with flex attachment, it's like night and day

A close second on my list is the telescoping magnetic pickup tool from
my FLAPS.

What about everyone else?
