Well, my favorite tools are my jackstands. I have a set that goes from 24" up to 40". I made these and have used the heck out of them. Everyone that comes to the shop has tried to take off with them a time or two. I have shorter ones for normal rigs, but my long ones are just awsome

As of right now my plasma, drill press and welder are at the topof the list.  My bender is pretty awesome too, but I hardly ever get to use it.  I have the anchors in the driveway and it's too damn cold right now.  BFH is a must and a handheld grinder.

Ya the bender will be a lot higher on the list after we make Brad's air over hydraulic.. I think I've worn a path in the floor from bending with it now.

I haven't gotten to put any quality time with it yet, but this will be one of my favorites for sure.
