Frank! Yep it's me, and no I haven't been wheeling all year... I did some today but that was work related. I guess it still counts though.
Back on topic - thanks for all the replys. As far as coolant, battery testers and multimeters: what is quality, and what brands should I stay away from???
And Budget garage air tools: I can't afford Snap-on, so how do Cambell Housefield (sp?), Husky, and similar brands stack up? Good to start with or a waste of time?

al my air tools both in my shop at home, and on my rig for OBA are made by husky. they are cheap, tuff, high quality, and home depot will replace them one a "give me the POS and get a new one" basis. and to top it all off...I liek this best there are home depots EVERY WHERE. so no matter where you are when and if you break it you can replace it right then!

A welder and a plasma cutter. No more need for wrenches. Weld it on, cut it off to work on it, and repeat.
Seriously, a welder would have been #1 on my list. What's wrong with you people?
