Hi Guys, I don't know if this was mentioned or not, but i know, weather you are Male or female, you always need a small bottle of WD 40. In my opinion, this is a tool. Another convenient tool is a collapsible magnet. I mean, the magnet has come in handy in both the garage , trying to get dropped bolts that have fallen in areas that i can't reach. and in the bathroom, It's amazing what can fall down the sink.

Mom how do I explain this one... A leather Man multi-tool is the next evolution of the Swiss Army Knife. They contain a pair of pliers, a series of serrated, pointed and blunt tip knife blades, a file, colmon and Philips screw driver tips, can opener, bottle opener *particularly handy for the Devil Dog brewery*, a leather hole punch that can double as a scribe and much more. All of these tools are contained in a mocular folding handle system that keeps everything together and ready for use. Damn... I hope this makes sense. They are available almost everywhere so go out and get your hands on one. It will take you a bit to fully appreciate it's many features and benefits however, I guarantee once the penny drops for you, you will be taking it home with you. I think I own about five of them.
