Description

Thanks for listening to another edition of the Handyman  Pros Radio Show.  Our Goal: To Help you save time, money, and aggravation on your home maintenance
and repair.
 
I was in a big box store looking to replace my well worn zip
strip drain cleaning tool, I came upon a new tool that will replace my zip
tool.  Not a day later, John was doing the same thing and I turned him
onto the same tool (we will show it in a bit).  We decided to do a show on
maintaining functionality as a handyman with fewer tools is possible by
maximizing the utility of the tools you have, improving your skills, and being
resourceful.

Here are some tips:
Master Basic Skills: Develop your skills in
carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, and other essential trades. Being
proficient in basic skills allows you to tackle a variety of tasks with minimal
tools.
Plan and Prioritize: Before starting a project, plan
it thoroughly. Identify the tools you'll need and organize your work area. This
helps avoid unnecessary trips back and forth for tools.
Improvisation: Learn to improvise with the
tools you have. For example, if you don't have a specific tool for a job, try
to adapt a tool you do have or create a makeshift solution.
Continue Learning: Stay updated on new techniques
and tools in your field. Learning innovative methods can help you accomplish
tasks more efficiently with fewer tools.
Specific Tools: 
Miter saw
Circular Saw
Versatile tools: allows you to improvise
Cordless Drill, drilling, driving, cleaning (brushes), grinding,
polishing, etc.
Oscillating tool
4” Grinder
Replacement tools
Replacement of bigger tools: Snake
Caulk gun as a clamp
Multipurpose materials: caulk,
screws, nails, PVC trim strips
Remember that skill and knowledge
are just as important as the number of tools you have. With resourcefulness and
creativity, you can provide quality handyman services even with a limited tool
collection.
