$500 to spend on tools. What to get? Thoughts?

[scherp69]

Our local TV station recently had an online auction and I picked up $500 worth of gift certificates for a tool store that is known in BC and Alberta, KMS Tools. I paid $400 so get an automatic $100 savings on whatever I get. Before I bought these, I had noticed a 36 inch slip roll in their flyer for $549. That's what made me buy these. I went to the store today and one of the guys I know there offered me a 50 inch slip roll for $599. The have that one in stock and would have to bring the 36 in so they can give me a better deal on the one in stock. Only thing I'm wondering, although I've wanted one for a while, I don't know how much I would use it. Even though it would look damn cool in my shop. Here's a link to it: http://www.kmstools.com/magnum-50-slip-roller-3179

I'm just wondering if there are any other tools that would be better use of my gift cards instead. If you've seen my build thread, you'll know that I already have quite a few tools. Here's a quick list of what I already have:
- lots of hands tools, sockets, screwdrivers, wrenches, etc
- Miller MIG welder
- 36 inch sheet metal brake
- sheet metal shrinker and stretcher
- bead roller
- ring roller
- drill press, bench grinder
- air compressor with lots of air tools and wall mounted hose reel
- good shop vac
- good creeper and shop stools
- good cordless drill and impact as well as a good corded drill

What do you guys think I should buy? I don't mind spending a $100 or so more, but want to keep it pretty close to the $500.

I'm pretty sure I spend close to $500.00 everytime I go into KMS, theres always something to buy. More clamps, new welding helmet and gloves, supplies....

How much metal to you really need to roll? You could always give it to me for Christmas?? :unibrow: :unibrow:

Doesn't look like you have a bead blasting cabinet. I use my friends, but it is something that I use a lot. Also, do you have to buy new tools? No, if you want to save more money, then go to auctions and you can pickup lot of tools for not lot money. Quality stuff too.
