Let's talk tools! What do you have? What couldn't you live without?

Back home I've got 90% of what I'd consider a very well-rounded Journeyman's body setup, with elements of engine tools, almost completely Snap-On..... My weakness is Snap-On tools. I've been out of the shop world for 3 years now, and just recently spied a Snap-On truck at the gas station PX down the road. It took ALL of my willpower not to step onto that truck and start buying things I couldn't afford.

What I absolutely could not live without are my Snap-On ratcheting screwdriver and my matching sets of these slip-joint pliers:

The AWP series of slip-joints are AMAZING, especially for weaving chainmail (yet another of my hobbies). The med-small size (listed) is GREAT for armor-grade mail, and the smaller ones are great for small armor-grade. For really fine jewelry-type mail, I have pairs of fine needlenose (bent and straight) that work beautifully for the job.

I am a hopeless romantic for Snap-Con tools. <3
