And now in a burst of refreshing honesty we're all going to admit to the most useless, waste-of-money, unnecessary, white elephant, "why the hell did I ever buy that" tool in our arsenal.
For me it's a B&D "electric file" - basically a needle-nose belt sander. It's a something that should be handy as hell but it's just too damned vicious. Touch it to a piece of wood and you have instant "shit - too much". I've never been able to get anything done with it. Next?
