Essentials for Every Tool Drawer

There comes a time in every one's life when the duty to repair something falls upon our own shoulders and when it does, will you be prepared? That depends on the degree to which you have prepared and organized yourself. Not everyone needs a band saw or a drill press. Certainly not every one has the need for a chainsaw or a jack hammer either. But there are a few basic tools that no home should be without.

"But Daniel." I hear you all lamenting. "If I have tools then I'll have to fix stuff."

Yes, you might and won't your roommates and significant others be impressed. I promise you though, this list will not relegate you to a life of handiness just preparedness. You don't have to tell anyone what you have achieved, keep it in secret satisfaction and silently work in the shadows. Tighten up those loose toilet paper rollers and towel racks, snug up the handles on your favorite electric skillet, straighten out those tilting drawer handles or simply open up that drawer in the kitchen and bask in the glorious knowledge that if it breaks...you can fix it...maybe.
