A good dildo and lube any technician worth his weight will have at least one in his tool box.

Yeah stick welder ain't the best idea fur a noob in a garage setting, wirefeed or mig would be a bit more practical.

We'll have to wait for more evidence before we can draw any final conclusions.

Snap On Electric Ratchet, probably the best tool ive ever bought, use is all the time. Price is a little steep, but its worth every cent
Spend lots of time in garage, i love to restore old school 4wds and 90s JDM

These things are pretty nice. You don't have to go Snap-On either if you're just a weekend warrior.

Ratchets (1/4", 3/8", 1/2"), a bunch of sockets, extensions for ratchets, breaker bar, regular open-ended wrenches, good screwdriver set, pliers and wire cutter set, vise grips, hex and torx bits or drivers, and your drills and electric impact. I highly reccommend more than one 3/8" drive ratchet too so you don't have to switch bits a million times. I'm sure I'm missing some stuff.
The hex drivers like pic related are really useful too when you don't need the power of a ratchet for taking plastic engine covers and little shit off. And the 1/4" drive torx and hex bits are great too for when regular hex keys and torx driver aren't getting the job done. The ratcheting box wrenches are something I recently picked up too and that is one thing that you can get away without having but makes life much easier on certain jobs.
And don't skimp on a decent jack. The $99 VatoZone kits that come with stands are tempting but if you spend a little more on a jack, it will be so much better.

Milwaukee makes an electric ratchet that is sloghtly weaker but has a 5 year warranty at a 1/4 of the price.
Its not too late to hop on the m12/m18 bandwagon.

The ammunition box, the blue ratchet wrench + sockets set and a small 2-ton hydraulic jack
In the ammo box I'll have screwdrivers, pliers, crimping tool, electrical connectors, fuses, some larger sockets, a little bit of grease, some combination wrenches and a multimeter
