10 and 15mm sockets. If I can find them 5 minutes later.

I bought those on -line and got the lifetime warranty on the batteries. They replace the Dewalt drill my daughter had been borrowing for a couple of years now.

Lately it's been my HF 5-ton log splitter:

WWMAGA

I've split somewhere around a couple cords with this baby during the past couple months. It works extremely well for my needs, and since it's electric I can use it inside the garage if necessary. Picked it up for $240 using the 20% off coupon. (I don't heat my house with wood, just have an old-school wood burning fireplace for the cooler months and an outdoor fire pit for the warmer months. Manly roaring fires go well with drinking red wine. Annie humors me).

Channellocks, crescent wrench and multi-tip screwdriver got me through most production calls w/o rolling out the tool cart.

I just lost one of the tips from my 11-year-old Craftsman 10-in-1, so I'm off to buy another one today I use that tool a lot.

But really, the most important tool I've been using lately is my brain. I use that one to figure out a way to make the physical tasks much easier to accomplish.

Outside of work (where the answer would be an electric screw driver), I'd say my two arms. Lots of moving stuff. Before that I was detailing my 323, mostly by hand with various cloths. The next up might be a 10mm socket and a brake bleeder (brakes and clutch cylinder on said 323).

Lately its been my new sliding miter saw and antique table saw. I haven't even opened a car hood in what seems like forever trying to get the house finished.

What gearheadmb said. For me it is a tie between table saw, circular saw or miter saw. With a good portion of drill and jig saw thrown in there for variety.
