I bought some excellent over centre ones for a trailer I built nearly twenty years ago. About four quid each. Brilliant things. Up there with my happiest purchases of all time. 
 

Come on then Pete. Goss goss goss.

Puts a whole different meaning when you say “ I have a latch back car” or “I have a sporty latch”

This little spark plug tester is worthy of a mention, checks four at a time to 9000rpm. Need to leave out the spacers for the chainsaw plugs. Nice to know whether a plug is actually properly plucked when trouble shooting rather than change them just in case.

Recently moved the battery platform in the truck to 18v Makita, lots of goodies about for the older version of this battery platform. A surprise is the small compressor, way quicker than my twin cylinder Tmax and I don’t  have to go rummaging for a battery connection.

pumped up both of these dumper tyres from flat in minutes and still showed a full charge on the battery.
