Milwauke makes some nice tools, not cheap either. You probably give them a pretty good work out your shop. Bare tool are the way to go. I never heard of them up until a while back.

Thanks entjoles. A good tip and thanks for leaving one. Looking at the replies vs the views on this thread. There have been people sneaking in and taking tips and not leaving any. Unbelievable.

I found the tip about the Sharpie permanent ink removal. This is a tip from Jhautz. He told me about it when I was painting my Losi Baja Bug body. I marked outlines and drew on the outside while I was painting it. When I was done. I went to peal off the plastic from the outside. There was no plastic coating on this one. Funny looking back at it now. At the time I wasn't laughing though.

"I used to work in new product development for the company that makes Sharpie. Here is the easiest way to remove the Sharpie from a smooth, non-porous surface. Trace over the area that you used the Sharpie on with a dry erase white board marker. Let it dry (15 seconds or so is all it really takes) and then wipe the Sharpie off like it was a dry erase marker. Its that easy. Works great on Lexan bodies"

Great tip from Jhautz.
