What is your favorite tool?

3lbs BFH. If it don't fit, it'll make it fit.

I've held off from replying thus far because it's a very tough call. I want to say air compressor, cutoff tool, drill press, belt / disc sander, Gearwrenches, cordless drill, etc. My nail gun is the most fun. My plasma cutter is the coolest. But, when I look at all I do, it's either my bench grinder (with wire wheel) or my vise. I'd have to pick my vise as the favorite of all. How anyone could operate in a "shop" without one is beyond me.

I agree with most of everyone's posts... welder, air tool & compressor, angle grinder, etc...

I'll add one more little useful tool, especially when assembling interior parts... a SK thumb ratchet. I love this little tool. I use it all the time.

I cannot live without my ratcheting, reversible wrenches.
