A Land Lords Master Tool Box

[Alex Aronson]

Hello,

Yesterday I changed the guts of my toilet for the first time. Missing from my tool box was a pair of 4 inch channel locks which would of saved me a ton of time and frustration.

So here is my question to the forum, what tools do you keep in your tool box when going to a tenants house and for what purpose?
