One of the best hacks in the industry. My dad is a mechanic and has been his whole life. Back in the early 90s he was working at a gm service center and dropped like 50k in 1 year to replace EVERYTHING and then some. Old man swears by good tools. But he also kept all his old tools just for this purpose. We'll pick up cheap kits or single tools just so we can cut them, bend them, hammer on them or whatever we need. I've welded sockets to rounded off bolts, bent and twisted wrenches to hit that one fitting in that one spot, modified pliers and vice grips for various uses, etc... Swap meets and garage sales are a goldmine for this kind of stuff 👍
