Alright guys, time for a primer
I've noticed a few threads here lately from people wanting info on how to repair something at home. If you have a wife/live-in then you need to be able to . Scratch that. If you no longer live with your parents you really should have some basic tools.
A few screwdrivers, wrenches, a small socket set, pliers, hammer and a multimeter will save you a bunch of money and headaches over time. You could spend $50 and put together these basics.

I know doing your own repairs is not always practical but when you can it's usually worth the time and effort. Not only will you save some bucks and be able to give out the Time Taylor yell/growl (WTH is that noise he makes anyways) but chicks dig guys with tool boxes. Oh yea, and motorcycles.

Curious to know how many planeteers have there own tools (even the basics) and how many don't.

Besides, it's the offseason. What else are we going to talk about.

Or I could walk two and a half blocks and borrow my dad's tools.

One time i painted my downstairs bedroom with a paint primer. No ventilation. I was sick that evening and called in the next day. The little woman was nice about it but i could tell she was saying i told you so.

I was an idiot.

That's weak. I've laid a mile of pipe in my day, three inches at a time. Now that takes work.

I have six 10 mm end wrenches. They send a new one with each DTN system I install so I started saving them.

MY BUDDY WITH THE HOT '55 Chevy was over the other day and he hates Chinese tools. He took 2 of the 10 mm wrenches. I asked why he wanted them and he said to loan people so he didn't lose his good tools.

I live on 40 acres and custom cut hay in the summer so I have a pretty fair selection of stuff up to and including a welder. Got the hoses and gauges for a cutting torch but don't have the bottles. I have a FIL who was very good with his hands at repairing things (even worked on tv's back when there was something to work on) and I have pretty much inherited everything tool-wise that he had put together over the last 30-50 yrs. Hell I got shit that I don't even know what it is for sure.

Smart man. Mine get loaned out on rare occasions. When someone wants to borrow something they get the cheap Chinese ones I've somehow acquired. Not my Snap On or Mac tools.

Lucky man. Ahhh, the days before divorce. A had a mig welder, torches, bottles, complete set of tap and dies from snap-on. Come to think of it I had a house before the divorce......and a convertable.

As a hobby, I build furniture, so I have quite a few wood working tools. I've also hung a few doors, installed crown and baseboard molding, installed some wainscoting, built a deck, installed gutters, installed insulation, dry-walled, built gates and fences, you know, the normal stuff a homeowner needs to do.
