Whats in your garage? (long post)

I need to replace just about every (non-metal; moving parts; small sized) tool that was in my garage. Power tools, feeler guages, ratchets, etc.

Considering that I’d built up the previous collection over quite a few years, I’m quite sure that there are items that I cannot think of off the top of my head.

Basic auto work, maintenance. Home maintenance & repair. 12v electronics diagnostics & repair. Composites fab. You get the idea…

Heres what i’ve got, please post some more suggestions:
Tool chest
bench grinder
angle grinder
Compound miter saw
Circ saw
Scroll saw
Sawzall
Shop vac
Belt/disc sander
Dremel / rotary tool
Router
Walkie Talkie set
Heat gun
12v power supply (<20 amp)
Fluke multimeter
Fluke clamp meter
Noid lights
Butane torch
Grease fitting gun
Air compressor
Air powered tools (gun, ratchet, grinder, sander, chisel/hammer)
Cutting stone set
Air hosery
Air powered tire tools (fill kit & guage)
Air finish nailer
Ratcheting wrench set
Tq wrenches (.375" & .5")
Torx bit sets
Drill bit set
Spark plug gapper
Brush set
Bottle brush hone
Ring compressor
Spring compressor
Feeler guage set
Caliper (micrometer)
Carb. tool kit
Engine picker
tranny jack
Fluid catch pans & funnels
Timing light
Compression tester
Leakdown tester
Pully removal set
Tap & die set
C-clamps
Brake bleeder kit
Corner braces (wood)
T-bar braces (wood)
Sanding block
T square
Quick sqaure
Level & mag. level
Hole saw kit
Safety goggles

Thanks for any input… I hate being in the middle of something and not having the apporpriate tool, hence trying to replace all the important stuff now.

Side note: any bright ideas on how to clean standard steel tools? Wrenches, sockets, extensions, etc. …I was thinking parts cleaner & then a rock tumbler / polisher?

punches/chisels/

gasket scrapers, battery charger, jack stands, creeper,

hoist/ AWD dyno/ rotisserie/ large metal workbench/ stripper pole/ hot(female)strippers

fridge filled with beer and steaks

Biggest grill you can possibly buy.

^^ and it will still not be big enough

Infact you should just have one custom fabricated to the shape of the garage.

engine stand?

there was one in there. A,B,C… large one. NO ONE WAS HOME TO USE IT. :slight_smile:

We have a sec. system, and live in a very well policed area. Ah, and the ins company covered all of this the first time around… don’t imagine it’d change.

edit- not to mention the guard dog
