Essential tool for the Ultima builder

[YIIHAA]

Just bought a cable tie tensioning tool, and wish I'd bought one when I was building the car. It tensions the cable tie to a set tension (adjustable) then cuts it off. Most importantly, it cuts it off with out a sharp edge remaining. I was forever cutting up my hands/arms on sharp cable tie ends when working around the engine.



Cost me 11 quid from vehicle wiring products , but I'm sure you can get them elsewhere.

My best buy tool has to be a mousetrap - amazing what they will eat!

Another suggestion: rivet spacer from Aircraft Spruce. An accordian mechanism for perfectly spacing the marks for rivet holes.
