Many people like to do their home chords themselves. And this is a very healthy habit as it keeps you busy and saves you money as well. However, not even the most experienced DIY homeowner can complete such projects without the right tools and machinery. Here is a list of tools and machinery that every serious DIY homeowner should own.
Hammer
Hammer is a basic tool that every homeowner should own. Do not buy very cheap or very expensive hammers, however. Buy value hammers that provide good quality at an affordable cost.
Cordless Drill
Drill machine is one of the most commonly used tools for DIY homeowners. It is even better if the drill is cordless.
Side-Cutting Plier
Plier is a multipurpose device that you will always need in even minor chores. Whether it is electrical work and you need to cut the wire, or you just want to pull a nail, you cannot do it without a plier.
Adjustable Wrench
An adjustable wrench is another tool that you will need in most, if not all, DIY projects.
Center Punch
Center punch is considered a device to make holes in metal. However, a center punch is a tool that can be used for many other purposes. You can use it to drive down the stub of a broken staple or mark lines on metal and wood.
Machinist Vise
This tool is especially for serious DIY homeowners. This belongs to the set of tools and machinery that you might not know that you needed – unless you have it. Machinist vise is an extra hand, and a strong one, that will hold things firm while you work on them.
This list is by no means complete. In fact, every DIY project has its own tools and machinery requirements.
