The Ultimate Homeowner’s Toolbox
Buying tools for your home improvement escapades can often be a daunting and expensive experience. So we have compiled a list of the must have tools for ANY toolbox.
Note: You should be able to get everything on this list for a max of $270
Hammer – Generally a 16 ounce hammer should do the job. Ideally it should also have a curved claw to assist with the pulling of nails.
Tape measure – Knowing the best size is always a tricky choice. I would go for a 25-foot one.
Screwdrivers – This is easy! Just get a package that has assorted heads (Phillips etc), and you are sorted.
Level – New political correctness laws prevent us from saying that everything should be straight. So all we can say is go out and get yourself a 9 inch torpedo level.
