My Favorite Scrapper's Tools

My favorite demo tools:

Hand Held Band Saw - Love it!
Reciprocating Saw (Sawzall)
Demo Blades for above - no cheapies
Snap On 1/2" battery powered impact wrench
Several battery powered drills with different bits - #1 Phillips, #2 Phillips, Slotted Screwdriver Bit, Small & Medium
Extra Batteries on chargers for above
Angle grinders with concrete cutting blade - cuts copper windings nicely
Air Chisel - Incredible (&noisy) time saver
Air Compressor (see above)
Radio - Must gotta have it
Heavy Duty Vise
10 Lb Axe/Hammer
Oxy Acetelyne Torch - Don't use it often, but it sure comes in handy
Dream Tool: Plasma Cutter - Bszzzz-zzz-z

My absolute favorite is my Labounty msd7r shear. It mounts on my skid steer. I can turn a perfectly good piece of machinery into a pile of junk in a matter of minutes. My second favorite is my handheld bandsaw, they sure are handy for cleaning brass valves and such.

a #2 hammer/sledge and screw drivers for most things and when getting a bit tricky. my dremel tool for the rest but yes radio,which is my cell phone, is a must have. the rest i do have but a torch and really do not use them much my family uses them more but great tools to have in the arsenal

Finally wore out my $20 HF grinder after 3 or 4 some years. Actually, it still works. Just been dropped/dragged so many times the case broke. Going to see if I can rig something up and attach it to the wall and use a foot switch for cutting bundles of wire/harnesses, etc.

Went to get another one and browsed some other tools. Bought a few, one being spring loaded wire cutters. Dunno why I never thought to get one before, but they really help. Not as sharp as I'd like, but it works.

Hey Spin, you know they sell a thing that you can put in the chuck of your electric screwdriver so all you have to do pull a bit out and stick another in. It takes me about 2 seconds to change bits. I have two cordless screwdrivers, one I use while the other is being charged. Got them both from walmart for 20.00ea.

That's another thing I picked up. A 12" hex extension. Haven't found anything it couldn't reach.
