My favorite power tool is my Stihl 261 saw. I don't use it near as often as I'd like but when I do, it puts a smile on my face. This picture was from when it was kind of new.......the grouse fell in love with it too. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/BNyvU8u.jpg)

For four years that bird stayed around my buddies place, he'd fly or run like crazy to the sound of a 4 wheeler, chain saw, weed whacker etc. We had some good times together.........sadly a fellow running a gas operated brush saw chopped one of his legs off last summer, a certain death sentence for the grand old bird. Sad ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/kOVY552.png) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/RC9MhGG.jpg) He surprised me in this one...... ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/IRixiwB.jpg)

Sad about the grouse. Im sure that was quite the experience having a wild bird acting like that around. He is looking after y'all now that's for sure.

Different tools for different jobs. The impact driver has put a real dent in a lot of daily tasks for me. Amazing tool. Battery operated tools in total. The new battery chainsaws and pole saws are amazing.
Hoffman boots. Climbing poles or digging holes, they are tops. And Darn Tough socks between the boots and my feet. Six months of daily hard wear, look like they did when new.
The Glock 17 has been a flawless tool, carried daily for 26 years now. It has killed more stuff than any other tool I own, and provided a deterrent above what my appearance could manage, twice. Served me well in steel plate competition, too. You could get hit by lightning before you caught me without it close to hand.
The Ram Cummins 1 ton truck. Mine got 27 mpg on a hilly and curvy two lane tonight over the forty mile trip home. Averages 25 locally. Pulls anything I have needed to pull, no hassle, from a fifth wheel rv trailer to a dump trailer with over five tons of rock loaded, to an equipment trailer and excavator. Makes towing easy.
Also, don’t know how I ever got along without that excavator and skid steers with tracks.

45 lb Johnson rod. 16 penny nail x 1000.
Simple straightforward demolition tool requiring no power or maintenance. A man can demo a lot of stuff with a Johnson rod. The beauty is in the simplicity of design and efficiency of material and fabrication. Best $20 I ever spent at lowes and will last forever.

Back in my lineman days, I would say my 9" Kline's. Any lineman can fix anything with his nine Klines. With his gloves on!
I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

Before someone like AlwaysOutdoors says his mini trouser weasel. I’m asking what tools do you enjoy using most often? I’m ripping up and replacing a rotted subfloor on the wife’s “SheShed”. Putting down 3/4” ply that I will back prime with paint to slow the moisture issues here on the coast. I’m always grappling a sawzall for demo. I hate catpaw’n nails, especially deck-cork screw nails. Sawzall get’s things done. Next tool is a worm drive skilsaw. driver, hammer. Guess some will say their favorite tool, is the right one for each job. Cheers to that thinking. So, what’s your favorite? ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/N0MYDQGM/5-FA2413-B-E5-E3-4-F07-866-C-5684-B3-A07742.jpg) 😎 They look brand new. Did you just buy them so you could make an Instagram post and get clickies ??
