What’s your best buy DIY garage tools?

This has been a really handy tool. I bought it last November anticipating I would use it to cut slots in stripped bolt heads and I’ve used it twice now for other jobs to get into places I couldn’t reach without the flex extension.

It’s like a dental drill. It was definitely worth the $33. I looked for something like this at the local Lowe’s and Home Depot stores but couldn’t find anything. The reviews of knock-off models indicated they were junk. The Dremel I have was made in the USA but the flex shaft is made in Mexico.

My Milwaukee M18 angle grinder collection has got slightly out of hand but these are one my favourite and most used tools

A proper roll cab. A Snap on one good used came up locally and I couldn't resist. Plenty of storage space and heavy duty cab weighs about 200 / 250kg empty made of sturdy stuff. USA made I believe

This is a limited edition one no 148 of 500.

(Stuffed in beside a C124 for now until I clear a better spot for it!)

Called Elora. Made in Germany. That’s how my 12 point 3/8 drive socket set looks

Something new to me which I love - a Hazet 162N Assistent trolley

This model/spec was made between 1982 - 1989 and is stamped "W-GERMANY". Above pictures are from when I was re-assembling it after receiving in the mail from a seller in Poland.

There are tabs on each side you squeeze and the trays collapse nice and neatly. Here's what it looks like stowed away


When you're ready for a job, you just drag it into place and pull the trays up. It's already loaded with special tools, brake bleeding equipment, and oil filters
