Mine is my half inch drive Snap On ratchet. Its over 20 years old and still as good as new, its a best friend when having garage fun. . Cant remember what I paid but it was over £100 as I remember, worth every penny. It just loves tight nuts . The tighter the better, the more stiff n awkward it just laps em up. Americas finest . store.snapon.com/Quick-Release-Ratchet-1-2--Ratchet-Quick-Release-1-2-drive-P651220.aspxI cant post a pic of mine cos its past its bedtime ! |

Nice !
But I see a flaw .
Do you also need a mini leather man to untie the main one from its tape and ties ??

No no....
Michael, with my OCD everything is packed under my seat in a separated fashion so that NOTHING gets mixed or tangled with anything else. I separate things using gloves, visor cleaning kit and sunglasses....
You need to be organised....

Anyway, I clean forgot I had that as I didn't venture under my seat due to using your 2nd hand visor wipes...  |

Anyway, back to favourite tools.... I'm still quite fond of my precision tile cutting tools.... My sharp nail and two matchsticks.... none of this fancy Dan stuff for me, I'm talking about when craftsmen were craftsmen....  |

Well during my projector of engine removal and refitting i came up against the dreaded problem of rusty nuts on my pips (all puns intended). So the cure behind my rusty nuts was this little purchase (nut removal set) costing me around £20 inc PnP on fleabay  Case included it served me well when i was doing car maintenance and it came in useful with my rusty nuts and brough all 8 off without a problem |
