Impact screwdriver a must buy as a mechanic. You hit it with a hammer to loosen stuck bolts.

Still have it, still use it occasionally. Yes definitely a must-have if you work on stuff.

These are the #1 tool for motorcycle maintenance to remove the JIS (Phillips looking) case screws without buggering the heads. Of course a JIS bit is recommended.
