MODIS? W/ All the adapters/connectors? And an old school Sun style cartridge unit in the back?

I looked into those. People say that they don't work on reflective surfaces, and you can't always tell when a surface is reflective enough to throw off a reading? - Just FYI. I don't know exactly. Something about the surface needs to be dark. I went a different route.

I got it for doing cooling system work. It seems to work pretty well for what I needed.

What method do you use?

The point of this thread is not to post pictures of all your tools, it's to post pictures of tools you just recently bought.

milwaukee m12 cordless multimedia camera. this is a self portrait taken with this actual tool(in the dark using its own illumination). i bought it to see inside of engines without having to take them apart. in reality though, mostly my girlfriend and i make our own porn with it.

Been wanting/needing one of these at the house for a long while. Finally bit the bullet and got one. Soooo nice.

How exactly does that work?

It's a tumbler. You fill it with some rocks/abrasive and throw your part in it. Close the top and turn it on. It vibrates/shakes and cleans/polishes the part.

Got it for cleaning hardware and small parts. Regularly $100, on sale for $50 plus 25% off for Easter means I got it for $37.50. :D Running some hardware right now.
