This little gem has got to be one of the greatest tools produced by the modern industrial world.  It makes drilling accurate holes easy.  Just put the point where you want the hole and press down.  A spring-loaded anvil in the tool punches the tip into the surface, making a small hole for starting a drill without risk of wandering.  We use it for wood, aluminum, plastic and steel.  It also works great for sheet metal.
