I haven't ever used Gorilla tape, just checked it out. Definitely going on the list.
I discovered silicon Rescue tape a few years ago and always have a few rolls around.
Thanks for your input, it's much appreciated.

Thanks! That's a great setup.
Although I've never spent the money on it, I've admired Festools line of Systainers The lineup provides really efficient storage.
Thanks again for sharing!

You can also search the forum for previous threads on tools.

Is a folding ladder a tool?
Is a smoker or grill or coleman stove a tool?
Is a lantern a tool?
Are extension cords and power strips tools?
Have em with us. Fortunately the ladder doesn't get nearly as much use....
