We all have a little baby that we cuddle with all the time during race weekends or when preparing back home. Post a picture and tell your story!

It's time for "Dremel Boy" or whoever to come outta the closet!!!

soldering iron..... got to be a good one, decent tip, temp controlled and quick at heating up.... after burning out one or two, I finaly think I got the right one.... sounds more like dating than soldering.... heehee

If it was work, then it would have to be the tool for fitting the pivot pin on a Tornado wing pivot point..... loads of liquid nitrogen.... leather boots, apron and gauntlets...

Mini Vise-Grip a.k.a. mini Monkey Wrench.
Very useful for holding parts you attack with the Almighty Dremel :-) Or soldering iron. or X-Acto. Or blowtorch. A finger-saver, really. Which can be important in R/C!!!

How anyone lives without a mole grip is beyond me.

Personally, I like hammers... they do more damage.

Although my favourite has to be a driver we have that's called Fred... Dad named him in the hope that I'd make friends with him and put him to use every now and then... (fat chance!!). He's been through it all with us has Fred...!

Good one! For welding it's irreplacable! It's even better than a real helping hand!

The wise grip is also a great item! Wise guy Elvo tipped my about that... I use it more and more!
