If there was one tool that I ever bought that holds bragging rights it is this. Its a snap-on cordless driver with 1/4 inch quick change bits. And a Irwin Tool set.

Now I'm not against t-handle drivers, but this thing will pull cylinder hold down bolts, mufflers, top covers, carburetors and what ever else you need. The quick change bits are nice. The T-27 is showing some wear but it's been used alot!!!!!!!!!!!!

How did that picture show upside down?????????? You can go to home depot and get a Makita cordless driver for less. I dont know about the bits. If you dont have it, it is a good investment. Trust me!!!!!!!!

Another tool used is a used bar with a clamp that you can purchase from a local hardware store. I use it to touch up chains off a saw and if lucky try alittle square filing on. ??? The clamp idea come from a gentleman out west. The clamp cost a few bucks. You can adjust it accordingly.

Pictures are crappy, I took them on my cellphone and uploaded to photobucket. The smart phones are smarter than me. ;D

Clamp? What's it do hold chain to bar without moving? Where purchased?
-
That's right, hold the tooth! It does a pretty good job! We have one welded on each end of the bar so if you have to flip the chain for the other side. Or you can clamp the chain on both ends, like for checking rakers.
-
I've never seen a clamp like that.
How would I go about looking or asking for it in the hardware stores?
-
A local Harbor freight has some here. The cost is like $1.29, I would send some your way if you wanna try some. In the picture they are welded to a xl12 homelite bar.
-
I'll check harbor freight out first. Thanks for info.

That is it, we have a neighbor that has a fixture made to hold chains to sharpen, I would like to get my hands on to copy.
