Essential Tools for Your Weekend Projects

Do you have a small DIY project that you plan to tackle over the weekend? While larger, more time-consuming jobs often require prolonged use of heavy equipment, weekend projects are usually simple enough to finish in a few days. With these essential rental tools , do-it-yourselfers can easily complete most any weekend project:

Electric Drill

Applicable to most jobs, the electric drill is one of the most versatile tools available. Aside from drilling simple holes, electric drills can be used for mixing paint, grinding metal, and driving screws. Many different attachments can be affixed to an electric drill, making it useful everywhere. Adept handymen are constantly discovering unique and creative uses for their drills.

Level

Levels are vital for accurate angular measurements. Torpedo levels use an air bubble to measure a level surface, while laser levels digitize the process and project a beam of light to be used for reference. They are most used in carpentry, plumbing, and masonry, and for hanging shelves and pictures. Magnetic wall brackets and tripods can be used with levels to ensure consistently accurate measurements.

Saw

From jig to chain, a multitude of saws have been designed for use on specific materials, enhanced for unique cuts, and adapted for portability and ease of use. From removing an obstructive tree to building an artisanal cabinet, a saw is helpful for household construction and deconstruction projects.

Automotive Floor Jack

The first step in many vehicle maintenance projects is raising your car off of the ground. There is no better household tool for this than the automotive floor jack. With it, you can very quickly prepare your car for a change of tires or oil, which—depending on your car’s make and model—can definitely be a weekend-long project.
