Make It a Grande Latte…But First, Tell Us Your Top 5 Favorite Tools

Let us know what five tools you couldn't work without and you could win a $25 gift card to Starbucks. Deadline is January 21, 2011.

For more than five years, we’ve featured a column in TechShop — Equipment, Tools & Supplies magazine called “Top 5 Tools — Technicians’ Top 5 Favorite Tools & Equipment.” Readers have sent in the five tools that help them most in the shop — from scan tools to flashlights, impact wrenches to on-car brake lathes, computer systems to office managers. At the end of the year we award the companies that are mentioned most.

Now it’s your turn for the reward!  

Send us your Top 5 Tools, complete with descriptions on why the tools are your favorites, and your photo. If your list is chosen to be in the February issue of TechShop, we’ll send you a $25 gift card to Starbucks.

Do you have an opinion about the tools and equipment you use? Do you support a tool so fiercely that you want the world to know about it too? If so, then here’s your chance to tell people what you think. And get a bonus cup of coffee, while you’re at it!

Submitting your favorite tools is easy. Just click here for the entry form. Or e-mail your submission to [email protected].

Be sure to include:

• The brand name and type of tool;

• A sentence or two explaining why those tools/equipment are your favorites;

• A photo of yourself and/or your shop to feature in the magazine; and

• Your name, title, business name and address of your shop, so we can send you a gift card if you win.
