What does your basic DIY kit need?
We don't want you to become a complete expert on this
subject. But in certain situations, having some basic knowledge of these tools can be very useful. And, above all, having the necessary tools will save you from having to ask friends, family, or neighbors for them. Let's start with the basics:
hand tools . These are the most common and necessary for many everyday problems. Simply removing a nail from a child's toy requires a screwdriver. We recommend having
different types so you're prepared for any kind of screw. In addition to that, you should also have pliers, a hammer, a tape measure, a level, nails, brads, wall plugs, and screws. Even if you think you'll never use them, try to buy good quality ones.
You'll need them when you least expect it, and you'll be glad to have them on hand. For those who are a bit more experienced, we can move on to
power tools . Don't be intimidated, and don't think of them as more complicated than they are. You don't have to be a DIY virtuoso to use them. Furthermore, they are becoming increasingly indispensable tools, just like their manual counterparts. Their main advantage is that
they are much easier to use , offering greater convenience. Two of the most common and convenient tools are the electric screwdriver and the drill. The electric screwdriver makes the task much easier and is far more comfortable. You'll achieve the same result, but faster than ever before. The drill, for its part, is one of those tools that should always be in every home.
