Another tool thread

[SloopJonB]

There has been quite a bit of discussion in some other threads about tool storage, makeup of toolkits etc. I'd like to pose a new one;

If you could only have ONE power tool, what would it be?

Please note: while I'm putting this out as a sort of opinion poll, there is in fact one correct answer - I'm curious how many have found it. I got lucky and was told about it when I was just starting to collect my tools - it has always proven to be right.

It'd have to be a cordless drill.

How about a blender? It can cure any mechanical issue...

A dremel tool made it into my tool bag two years ago and now I don't leave home without it (along with several pounds of other tools including cordless drill)

So my little cousin posted on FB that he was bored and gave everyone his new phone number...

One spool of detonex (primer cord) please. (WEG)

Now, that's a power tool.

Although I have to admit i was impressed the first time I saw a B&D Firestorm drill. The drills themselves are just "consumer" grade and I'm way happier with "commercial" grade tools, but the way that the whole chuck snaps off--with the drill bit still in it--to reveal a screwdriver bit, so you can drill-screw-drill-screw without messing around with the chuck, that's nice.
