If you are ever fixing the all-too-frequent leaky faucet, or, constantly undertaking home improvement projects, you will find yourself in need of a few essential tools. It does not take long to figure out that you cannot use a butter knife as a screwdriver, and while it may have provided a temporary solution, you mostly end up just stripping the screw.
What the first aid kit is to the accident-prone family, the well-stocked tool kit is to the fix-it prone family. You need not to spend exorbitant amounts of money on excessive amounts of tools, or, better yet, on excessively complicated ones. Get these 11 tools under your belt (pun intended) and, you will soon find that you can conquer those nagging little household projects with relative ease.
