Some type of wood cutting device. Hand saw, jig saw or circ saw. Maybe a hack saw too
Great list! The two things I’d add are a good allen wrench set which come in handy for assembling furniture and often set screws in bathroom hardware, and one of any variety of those 2-foot long plastic drain snakes/drain cleaners which are so handy for mechanically unclogging bathroom sinks, tubs, and showers.
The only thing that immediately comes to mind that everyone else hasn’t said would be small, medium, & large metal putty knife. I use them for other things besides patching drywall. Like removing old caulk, wood patching/repair, etc.
Also a good caulking gun. And I have a hack for caulking like a pro. A set of painter’s/art spatulas. I use these when caulking because I’m not an expert at laying caulk or silicone smooth 😂 I can work magic though with my set of spatulas.
What’s a nut driver?
Well done video!
I’m fixing up my house to sell. That has propelled me into the DIY realm. I don’t want to spend thousands on contract labor when, really, I think that I can figure out just about anything if I need to.
The singular most valuable tool that I have bought so far is a 14 in one Pittsburgh Tools ratcheting screwdriver from Harbor Freight. I use that thing for every project. Best $15 I ever spent. That and a set of Allen wrenches – probably the first two things any homeowner should buy.
Also expanding spray foam. That stuff has somehow, with no explanation, been used in damn near everything.
Good video you two. Concise and informative.. Thank you, you two! Keep ’em coming……
Thanks for the laughs.
Great video and really cool list of items. There were a few on there that I would have never considered! I would probably add a multimeter to list.
My dad wasn’t around to teach me this stuff. I find myself with a family and home now. This stuff may seam basic to you but for me it’s needed.
Need a good Allen wrench set both standard and metric. If you’re putting together your own furniture you need a set of Allen wrenches.
Those Knipex pliers are the best.
Pretty good list!
Socket set would be good to have.
pipe wrench and pry bar i would add. Not saying you should fix complex plumbing problems behind the walls on your own, but I had to remove a sink clog from a basement pipe my first day of moving in, and needed a pry bar multiple times (which is especially important if you’re doing minor renovating)
The jelly bean story with the movie clip is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
I use a lot outlet checker with my tool ti check live wires. A dvm is needed in my tool box. Tks, Randy
Duct tape and crazy glue
You two are adorable! I never thought watching a home tool video would be amusing❤
Need a drain snake for unclogging drains. It’s going to happen eventually. Just get one.
You must have a 5-1 or the 7-1 painter’s tool! It’s a must have for every tool box. I also recommend a bucket organizer for the tools. They are made of canvas with a bunch of pockets and fit inside (& outside) of a 5 gallon Homer bucket. Ryobi and Milwaukee sell drill and driver bit sets all nicely contained in plastic case. Those are very handy to have in your tool bucket.
A multitool is a great tool to have around. I would add that to the list as well.
Great video!
Let’s not corn fuse slips with locks unless they DO have a lock on them. 😊
Just found a nice uncomplicated channel , thank you.
Hi
You have a beautiful house. Instead of a stud finder, I use a magnet to locate the wall fasteners.
