Made a new tool -- guess what it's for
I spent some time this weekend working on my GT4, and decided there had to be a better way to do one of the tasks I needed to do. So, I ended up modifying a socket to make the task easier. Here's a pic of the socket and two tools used with it. What task did I use it for?
I'll give a hint -- it's a 1/4" drive 11mm socket.

It it was a 13mm I would have guessed shock top with a hex key counter.

 I had been using a crowfoot socket with a universal joint and various extensions, which worked, but not very well. So, I decided to try milling a hole in a socket, and it worked much better. The "hole in the side of a socket" is not a new concept, but it's the first time I've seen it used for this application.
