What tool should I buy my wife?

Nick from New York wants to buy a tool for his wife for Christmas. He wants me to recommend something. Well, Nick I can tell you that the best tool I have is the Dremel. This tool is a high speed rotary tool that is versatile, light weight and inexpensive. It can cut, drill, grind, polish, rout, sand, etch and clean.

You can use it on ceramic, stone, leather, wood, drywall, metal and laminates. It has plenty of other uses as well. It comes cordless for those times that you can't be attached to a plug and also corded when you need a little more power.
Comes with plenty of attachments.

The Dremel comes with plenty of accessories that allow you to be creative.

Great for removing rust and sanding hard to reach places.
Polishing is not a problem in hard to reach places.
One great use is putting the cordless Dremel on low to trim down and smooth out your dog's nails.



So Nick............get your wife a Dremel. Great for crafts, home improvement and assortment of other projects. Make sure you buy some jewelry as well! Thanks for the question.

Basic Tools:






Screwdrivers: phillips head and flathead and a few different sizes. You can get some pretty functional screwdrivers at the dollar store.






Hammer: A shoe works but the real thing is better






Drill: one very valuable tools. Get a decent one at Home Depot or Lowes. They have some nice ones on clearance.






An assortment of screws and nails.






Stud finder: Yeah, I know....all women need a "stud" finder. They really do help you find the stud in the wall so you can find the strongest place to install a nail or screw. They happen to be pretty cheap too.



2 pairs of plyers. A needle nose and a regular. They come in very handy. You can also get them at the dollar store.





Glue Gun: What a great invention. This comes in very, very handy.



Tape Measure: Can't live without this.



A decent saw and a wood mitre box: You will use these for sure.



These are the basic tools you will need. I started with most of these and added more along the line. I now have a nice collection of tools my "husband" has bought for me over the years. By the way, he doesn't use them.



There are specific tools for specific jobs. We'll talk more about that in the future. 01 02 12
