tools, not woodworking

[p_toad]

just for the heck of it my primary drawer in the little tool box at the restore with the tools i use most frequently to de-contruct lights, fans, etc for re-cycling of the metals.  since i am a volunteer there,all the money we raise from this goes directly into stuff for new homes.  included are 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 mm wrenches (with the 14 being the most commonly used on 3/8 pipe nipples holding lamps together.   that long tubular job in the middle is a 10" 14mm deep well socket (originally for certain Denso plugs).   1/2" pipe normally held in place with 11/16 nuts.   red handle pliers are the HF replacements for my Knipex pliers which i leave at home now.  1/4 ratchet set up with 6" extension and 1/4" 8 point (square tip bolts often used on ceiling fans) and 14mm socket on wrench to right for lamps.   various screwdrivers and a box of HF tips to the left.   other drawers have my Wilde pin and roll punches, SAE wrenches and sockets, metric wrenches and sockets, cut-off wheels , and a load of other miscellaneous small tools.   hammer and large screwdrivers in to as well as a couple of specialty lamp tools (for removing retaining rings).
