You're not using it enough. I know where EVERYTHING is.

My trouble is I have at the minimum 5 different tool boxes with all the tools in them. That is what happens when you inherit your dads tools, your father-in-laws tools and your sons tools. It also depends on where I'm at at the time I need a tool.--my shop, .the, attached garage, the basement, the laundry room. my truck----etc. They all have a tool box in them.

Unless you are making your living as an auto electrician who in their right mind would pay $62 (more like $75 after taxes) for a stupid pair of wire crimpers?

Lots of people don't get that distinction.

Wrap it in razor wire like I saw on the internets.

I did this to a lesser extent in the past out of necessity a few times to remove the turbo on a Mercedes 904. When the nut gave way, pieces went all over.
