    Default Sometimes cheap tools aren't so bad

    I have this nifty $11 Black & Decker drill I use for changing tires at autocross. It works great. Won't break nuts loose, but it beats spinning them by hand, the case holds my centering rings, and it's still smaller than a proper X-wrench. And if it gets stolen, I don't care.

    Plus... I hear those cordless impact wrenches can be dangerous...
