We called them 'lunch benches' when I worked with a large crew, seems everyone had one of different styles and sizes

OP has a bad time with tools, period. Should probably take up golf instead
I have to agree with most; get good tools and learn to use them in the right application. I have all the tools mentioned- with the exception of a stud finder, I still use a knuckle- and havent had...
