Default Lets see favorite hand tools
I just came up with this - Im not even prepared with photos today.
I bet this may get too mis-interpreted, but I would only include hand tools, air/ electric hand tools... Try to think of the one that really really got you out of a tight situation, or something super handy .
I know that there are some tractor stands out there, I think these should be included. Id love to work with one!


ok Guys share your best!!

Given what I do for a living, it's all hammers (powered and hand) all the time . . .

But as far as my Cub is concerned, it's my air impact wrench - that puppy has saved me a bunch o' grief now that I've started taking things apart.

Hilltop, is that an IR impact wrench you have? If so, it looks very much like mine. That, along with the ratcheting box wrenches, are probably my most-used tools. Tough choice, though.

Mooner -

The air feeding it is IR . . does that count?

The wrench is a cheapo Craftsman that came with a small compressor that I gave to my brother years ago.

That being said, it sure has earned it's keep around here - between working on my tractor and forklift as well as dismantling old equipment for the usable metal, it's saved me a bunch of skinned knuckles and cuss-words!

I'll have to agree with the camera being most important tool to me. I can go back and look at pics before taking something apart and see how it goes back together or take a pic of something I have a question about and post it here and get great responses. Keeps me out of trouble most of the time .

Really good point - my "where did that go?" memory is nowhere near what it used to be and having pics pre-disassembly has saved me from numerous acts of frustration!
Also, being able to share my (and other's) WTH? moments with you guys is priceless.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
