Artex tiny pen knife. Got it from rep 20+ years ago and used many times to cut the straps on pallets in merchants ect. Oh and bottles of beer as the other side it an opener. Was in wickes recently rushing as store closed in 5 mins. I was slashing away at wood baton packs as wanted just 2 straight peaces.

Straight wood in Wickes...no f**k**g chance!
 
My welder... love my tig welder
Now what you want is 9*36" gearhead lathe
And a milling machine life will be you oyster

Come to think of it I have a lathe I could sell oh hang on and a mill.
What sort stuff do you do with your welder, I ended up horse trading mine for a few welders from my dad, just haven't sold them yet and replaced the tig.

I want a lathe... Whether it is for wood turning or metal I would be happy.

I tinker with kit cars so I make everything.

Top fella dad's done a few kitcars and restoration,ive restored more motorbikes than I care to remember, my partner races grass track we make everything aswell. I did have a workshop which was due to be busy but we lost it as the farm was being sold, my other work went crazy so put plans on hold. I'll wait till I have a bigger garage no stress of rent.
 
Lost my estwing ripping hammer the other day, bought over 20 yrs ago to replace an ordinary estwing that some theiving spastic stole from me on a barn conversion site 20yrs and one day ago.......( like the murphy’s......I’m not bitter).....thought I’d left it the tip after bashing out a grillatub.......gutted...had visions of it lying in a big old skip, or in the hands of one of the skanks that work there.......then, the Mrs found it behind some timber I was storing in the garage......made my day!!
