As the season approaches, what gift ideas do you guys have for tools you love that are often overlooked? Specialty, maybe rare use tools that just rock when you need them.

Already put an air hose reel on my gift list, and would love another cord reel.

Suggestions?

Definitely a must-have for our trucks. My parts store one i bought in a pinch works, but that looks a lot nicer!

It's a nice kit I bought one a few years ago, I use it way more then I thought I would.

I'm a big fan of the $5 head lamps that clip onto the brim of a hat. Good idea.

Also, cordless recharagle LED work lights. I've got 2 in the garage. Only work lights i really use.
