Spent $400 on a new hydraulic hose crimper last month and it already paid for itself on a job in Mobile.

That's the best feeling, when a tool earns its keep that fast. I always keep a log book for new gear, jot down the date and cost, then note every job it gets used on. Seeing the numbers add up makes it easier to pull the trigger on the next piece of equipment. A good crimper is a game changer for mobile work, saves so much downtime running back to a shop.

Yeah man, that's the best. Bought a decent set of wrenches for a side job last year and they covered the cost on the first weekend. Felt so good not having to borrow or make do with the old rusty ones.

Log books and crimpers, man. Elliot_allen65 sounds like he's running a Fortune 500 company out of his garage. I get the idea, but for a weekend side job that paid for the wrenches in two days, is all that paperwork really needed? Feels like overkill when you could just remember you made your money back and be done with it. Do you actually go back and look at those logs, or is it just busy work?
