    When the white man discovered this country Indians were running it
    no taxes, no debt, women did all the work.
    White man thought he could improve on a system like this. - Old Cherokee saying <<



    i am guessing those old cherokees had not met scrapette yet. or maybe they did and perhaps that is why there are fewer cherokees?

    I carry a small tool bag with all my "essentials".
    Mostly because my truck runs poorly, so in-case I have to "ditch" it (don't want more than I can carry, besides that a tool box would take up valuable space/weight).

    OFF TOP OF MY HEADsort of in order):

    -Klien lineman pliers (sidecutters) (These are ALWAYS with me when I get out of truck).
    -6 way screwdriver (the sockets fit MOST HVAC screws, other stuff)
    -Klien electrical hammer (it has an awkward looking long nose, and straight claws, but great for demo ,IMO)
    -Channel-lock pliers (two: one larger other smaller, blue handles, srry forgot the sizes)
    -Basic english measurement sockets, and an extension for the socket wrench
    -Allen wrench set: just a cheap "Husky" brand english measurement (all I've needed)
    -Sometimes "Torx" set sockets..also just a cheap "Husky" brand set.(HATE Torx...stupid)
    -Klien cable cutters :the plier size with red handles that look like finger removers.
    -I Had a 3lb. hammer that DESTROYED whatever it hit, but it got stolen from back of truck.
    -Flat screw-driver ,and two "stubbies"
    -Cheap set of box end wrenches (english size)
    -needle-nose pliers
    -one vise-grips
    -I keep my angle grinder (very valuable tool) at home since it's AC ...wish I had a battery one, or a power-inverter that could power it.
    -I keep my hack-saw, and Monkey-wrench at home usually too (although I need them sometimes).
    -Just got a small Bolt-cutters...

    I'll think of more later , Gotta go, (I'm not at home, my window is missing ATM, and my tools are in the truck ...makes me nervous)...
    I'll think of More later.

    Sweetie, you put me on the wrong side of that fight! One of my ancestors had a native wife (and a european one) long story - we're really lovers, not fighters in my family!
