No, it can not be attached to you.

Alright, this topic is really scraping the bottom of some barrel, but 4 pages on oil drain plugs inspired me.....

I will start:

This wrench extends for more torque, 1/4 & 3/8th, and only $15!!!!!! It really works and I put quite a bit of stress on the extended shaft.

Try this one...

1/4" and 3/8" long reach dual flex head gear ratchet. Not to mention only 7/16" head profile (thin); allowing you to reach the areas you would've never imagined. $29.99 (regular price) comes with lifetime replacement, unbeatable.

The tool I use the most! Small enough to fit anywhere and enough torque that I don't have to use hand tools except for lug nuts

Battery lasts forever

My BFH aka Big F'n Hammer aka "persuasion". Whatever is giving me problems gets fixed, or it seizes to exist.

My go to tool is my variable speed Dremel. I go through a Dremel every three years due to use. I do a lot of building and creating. As a former propmaster in Hollywood, I have a bunch of Sci-Fi prop replicas. Its my creative outlet and the smell of bondo, paint and fiberglass is like a fine brandy to me.

Cell phone is my favorite tool. So much information available in the garage, and I can take pictures of everything I'm taking apart.
