Odd, I posted a picture of my tools but we haven't seen any evidence that you own the first one.

That`s a fine set of porting tools G but John will soon have you bested, I sent him two new horse hoof rasps, one flat one rounded to get into them tight corners!!
 
Ok I will bite but if I end up looking like a narcissistic douche I blame somebody else :)

Just realized I have some chainsaw specific tools in another tool box as well, a handful of pioneer and poulan specific oil seal installers and a dreft punch made for removing the flywheel side bearing from 044 046 066 through the oil seal without a puller :)
And I suppose the shop computer with mediacat is pretty dang important too.

You win.......

:bowdown:
 
Nice shops. You guys are prepared to open a service center if you wanted. I can tell you, you have better tools than most so called dealers.
 
last week I had the parts counter guy ask me to wait a minute and the service manager came up and asked me what a tool was that was on the counter in my order for the day
I couldn't fault him for not knowing it was a generator puller/installer for heated saws, heck I had never even heard of a heated saw until I found you bunch of saw-nuts and this dealership has never sold one, ever.

I know there are some guys on here that have hellasweet saw tool collections, but most might be too lazy to take pics :)

Geez dave.i've seen multimillion dollar jobs hit the dry erase board but not saw builds.:laugh:
I love a dry erase board I think better when I have something to see and currently there are 26 saws in some stage of creation/repair up on the board. If I don't write it down I spend every minute in the garage trying to figure out what to work on and never fixing anything :)


I forgot two important parts of Drawer two - masons twine for installing intake manifolds and a set of harbor freight airbrush cleaning brushes they are tiny and work awesome for cleaning out little nonsense. Drawer also has a 4 mix engine setting gauge that I never figured out how to use :)
