a $240 titanium hammer.
If you could buy.....
Alright guys......I had my trailer stolen several weeks back....with about $15,000.00 worth or tools inside. After weeks of going back and forth, I finally got a check from the insurance company for the trailer and most of the tools...but my question is this: What one tool would you definitely go back and buy again? I am not talking about miter saws and nail guns...but more like something that some folks may not have, but that you have found is well worth the money. I am going on a big spending spree at the Tool Shed here in Greenville, and I know there are several tools that I owned that I don't plan on replacing.....so I am wondering what I should buy instead. Any ideas??

Honestly, though. Some tools I have that "some folks may not have"
- Fein Multimaster is pretty handy
- A DSLR, photostitching software, and a photography course
- Fein Turbo II Vac
- Zipwall Kit
- A better way to keep my trailer secure.
Sorry you lost all your tools. Something I can't live without is my Bosch 1274VSK belt sander. Also my PLS2 palm laser.
I have two Joseph Kihlberg pneumatic staple guns. They shoot a paper size staple at 600 rpm. You ain't ever seen housewrap go so fast. $6.00 box usually does an average ranch. Way cheaper than button cap gun nailing.
I would be tempted to get the "Kapex" scms by Festool. +1 for the Fein multimaster also.

Balls out man, go all Festool. While your at it see if you can get a framing nailer for Canadian counter part.
FEIN SUPERCUT Not the cheaper multicut model. Guaranteed you will never regret it and won't believe the number of things and situations you will end up using this tool for. Wish I'd bought one ten years ago.:thumbup:
i would go all festool too. the more i use their tools the more i am sold on their system !
im almost their, i just aquired the ets 150/5 and a seperate systainer with asorted sanding sheets. i will be redoing some stairs next week so i will report on the dust collection with a ct 33 hooked up in a finished house!

Bosch digital angle finder is a great tool.
Dewalt cordless nailers. Don't leave home without them.

I would buy a freakin security guard to hang around the new trailer:whistling
Don't have them, but I'd switch to Hitachi Coil nailers

You wont have to tell me, I all ready know the answer to that.

:laughing: Are they better than the stanley POS?Craftsman studfinder:jester:
Paslode angle finish nailer and brad nailer. I can't work without these now.
my little dremel fien knockoff. i love that thing
Festool T15 drill with the attachments. It is incredible the versatility of the different chucks (90 degree, offset, depth-stop) for getting into places. Also, it handles everything up to when you should be using an impact.
A tape measure.
And your own damn pencils.
(Sorry, can you tell what I dealt with today)
