The hand-held bandsaw has saved me untold hours of hacksawing for the last 25 years or so.
The LED "headlamps" seemed silly to me- until I tried one a couple years ago. I now find myself using it very often- under cars, up in dark corners, etc., even underhood work.
For us aging retirees, it's a matter of cooperation- "If you come over after coffee and help me move a shortblock, I'll follow you home to give a hand with putting that differential back in".
