I love tools… I’ve already said how important my garage is to me, and pride of place is held by the tool chest my wife won me in a Halfords caption competition years ago. While I’m pretty well kitted-out with what I need for most jobs (or cam happy to bodge together a bearing press with threaded rod and some big washers and nuts), I suddenly feel like there’s an empty space in my tool drawer.

I spotted these in US magazine Practical Mechanics – one of the coolest set of spanners I’ve seen…

What do you think? Do you have a tool fetish?
