How much use will the power tools get?
I thought I had a pretty good set for use around the house.
When I built my log home each power tool was replaced with better, semi-pro grade tools. This was not by choice. The homeowner's grade tools physically failed when given daily work.
A memorable phone conversation with my wife from the spring of 1987:
"Honey, I need you to go to Coastal Tools in West Hartford to get me a new drill."
"I don't want to spend another $25 on more tools!!!"
"Don't worry, you won't. It's $129."
The tools replaced during that project include:
table saw
3/8" drill
1/2" drill
chainsaw
circular saw
electric screwdriver (replaced by a drywall screw gun).
router
