Read the topic. :)

Oh, and don't name any tools from the Create tab, or I'm sure the word "Box" will be said a little too many times. :p

Hmmm...ok I'll bite.

We should exclude stuff like move, rotate, mirror, cut, copy, paste, undo, and the numeric panel--and the like--as well... With that in mind.

Extender(i)
Vertibevel
Drill
BandsawPro
Bandglue


and since you cant just have 5... ;):p

knife
weld/to average
spline draw
sub-d/freeze
rail extrude
rail bevel
KW Edgesmoother
C-plane
Make/Edit UV
Zoom to fit
Show/hide selection

Oh I could go on all day! :D ;) :p

Nobody said "drag"?

This has to be #1 for me, along with smooth-shift.

Lasso! All time fave! :D

And I`m surprised it took you all so long to say Smooth Shift! [Looks to camera: "Mmm, nice!"]

Poz_Extender
Scolopendra

1. Knife
2. Spline patch/Autopatch
3. Set Value
4. Subdivide
5. Boolean

Actually, I guess the set of tools very much depends on what kind of objects you modeling using LW.
