Yep, you cannae beat an old assortment of tools.
This way you dont feel guilty 'modifying' them for that awkward to reach fastener, or slipping a huuuggge bar over them for a little extra leverage....





Dont just build it.....make it!

Hammer, cold chisel, Mole grips, hacksaw and big file - Surely the only tools any chap requires.

I've heard of your fancy spanners, sockets etc - Take no notice - just marketing gimmicks to help you part with your hard earned cash.

when you use snap-on you feel the difference but is it realy worth the extra money? probably not but they do some trick specialist bits.

But you've already got a cold chisel! I must admit I,ve only got the hacksaw beacuse I can't resist a new gadget, but it's not really much use for hitting things with.
