By far it has to be the dremel. That thing could be used as a portable band saw.

Clecos for anything sheet metal. Great for "tacking" versatube and gussets together before riveting. Saves tons of time by ensuring things will go together prior to assembly.

Re: Most underrated/undervalued tools
I saw this wrench at Wal-Mart that was squeeze-adjustable. It said it worked for any size from 3/4" down to 1/8". I'm really regretting not getting it
