When I was demolishing my house I used Vaseline or petroleum jelly (not sure what you call it in North America) to seal the rim of the mask to my face. I inhaled a lot less dust after this and felt much healthier. I find that these respirators never seal to the face very well.

As cheap as these things are now you really have to not value your health to not use one. So unless you're a smoker go spend the $25, buy one and be sure to store it in a 1 gallon zip top bag when not in use to prolong the life of the filters.

Though I thought about it some and you know with even a good pair of scissors you can strip wires OK. The Dremel vise looks like a toy. Cordless screwdrivers seem like kitchen drawer weights to me. Respirators I don't use as much as earplugs. Maybe LED lights are great, I'm not tossing out any of my Mag Lites just yet though. Out of this bunch I’d have to say the strippers I guess.

I guess not voting is that option. You guys go a good job but none of the tools of the week really struck me. My $0.02 so disregard it. I would like to see a page on Toolmonger with all of the submitted tool references--for when I am bored at work--that way I may find something interesting to me that almost no one else would care about (and therefore it wasn't posted on the main site).
