Your favorite gadget in your toolbox ?
 
As there's lots of great tools / gadgets around these days, I thought it would be interesting to see which purchases racers couldn't live without :)

For me.
Best thing I ever bought was a big tin of acetone, still loads left and saved me a fortune.
After that my EDS 2.0mm rounded end driver is a lifesaver.
Reemer comes a close third.

Cordless Dremmel :wub. I could make a small fortune getting broken shock shafts out of shock bottoms.

Which one is that Carl ? I tried to get the Makita one a while ago but the shop ended up letting me down. I though the price I found seemed too good to be true... It was !

20 JPS silvers and a lighter*, especially after breaking down in nearly every heat / final at the oOple race! (still loved it though)

*sorry for the tobacco advertising
