What was the last tool you added to your arsenal?

Just got a nice little 6' rothengberg adjustable spanner. Has very wide jaw no problem gripping 22mm.
Good for tight spots.

Rothenberger waste pipe cutting set, although you need a grip like a boaconstrictor to turn the things.

I think twice about buying a new pencil!

Nah, if you have arms like Micky then maybe yes. But usually it's fairly easy to turn them unless in an awkward position

i find technique help,

pop it onto the piece you want to cut,

turn it abit by pushing along the open edge following the arrow of rotation

and then you should be fine to grab and twist easily

if it tram lines your not griping / squeezing it hard enough

If you also hold the opening too tight it's very difficult to twist them around. I'd put my hand right opposite and then start twisting it's so much easier

Grouting tools for re grouting my kitchen lol,

Dunno if you'd call it a tool but last thing I bought was a £2 Skywolfeye torch off ebay, took 2 weeks to arrive but it's like having a little sun in my pocket, silly bright.
Next thing will probably be a wet vac, I've struggled long enough without one now.

It definitely is a good tool though for nasty tap changes any other job. Does it run via a battery ?

Cheap 240volt air compressor for pumping up expansion vessels - particularily on unvented units. Doing it with a hand pump is just too hard

Not sure which forum it was on but if that's the indestructible one, he dropped it off scaffolding a couple of floors up and other than being scratched a bit it was fine.

It somehow runs off 1 AA battery, it's some sort of sorcery I tell ya.
