Tools For my Bike Room ?
 

So I turn 57 tomarrow and am going to treat myself to a new Park Tool truing stand . And I am looking for some other ideas ? What have you bought that you really like ? It is gift time we all deserve something rite :rolleyes:

Hey man...Happy Birthday. At our age...everyday above ground is a present if you ask me. Can't really offer any suggestions on what you should buy for yourself but I am sure Budd Matto would be willing to help you spend some of that money :D

Happy Birthday. :)

If you don't have a good set of t-handles..... That's a "must have"....

Reminds me that I am missing my safety wire pliers... I feel somewhat lost without them...

This thread makes me feel old and I'm 43. I have one of those mounted to the floor

Yes!


But I don't have room for a full size one - so I have been looking at this one for *way* too long...

Lift for certain.

I have two

Lathe. You won't believe you got by without one.

Compressor and bench grinder with a wire wheel goes without saying.

Happy birthday!

The last tool I bought (around my 55th birthday) was this Tire Mounting Tool from Kauritmoto:

Yes, a well equipped home should have a lathe. A very useful tool.
