The handiest thing in the world might be small stainless hose clamps.

They can be used to retain wheels on spindles instead of those "c" clips.

They can be used in emergency to retain balls in worn tie rod ends.

They work on mowing deck lifts to prevent the central deck spindle grease fitting

from rubbing on the deck lift lever and destroying the grease fitting.

 

Work for me, especially in a jam.

I have also heard an unsubstantiated rumor that those little clamps can prevent a hose from leaking at a fitting.   :confusion-confused:   Don't know if it is true, just something I heard.            :ychain:

Almost eliminates the need for baling wire.

Found this in another thread. Slightly bigger hose clamp but same idea.

Do not use hose clamps on a steam line unless you back it up with Flex Tape and Flex Seal! :occasion-xmas:
