The Perfect Gift: A Tool Box
Most everyone has a screwdriver or two laying around the house, but not everyone has a minimum collection stored in a tool box. If you know a young person graduating from high school, a single relative, or even yourself, a tool box with a minimum complement of tools may be the perfect gift. Based on my own experience, the BASIC TOOL BOX should include: A plastic or metal box such as the 13² plastic box from Walmart or the 14² plastic box from Lowes. The box should have a secure latch that wonıt come open when picked up. #1 Philips screwdriver #2 Philips screwdriver 1/8² Flat blade screwdriver 1/4² Flat blade screwdriver Standard pair of slip-joint pliers with insulated handle Diagonal cutters with insulated handle Long nose pliers with side cutter and insulated handle Small claw hammer such as Sears 3805 - 7 oz. Depending on your knowledge of the individualıs needs and the size of the box, additional items might include: Full-size hammer Crowbar or pry-lever Flashlight Tire pressure gauge(s) Pocket knife & sharpening stone Soldering iron & solder & soldering braid Digital multimeter Set of nut drivers Set of Allen wrenches Set of Torx drivers You get the idea! 73, Fred, K4DII |
