For example, I think I’ll need a ladder. I’m looking for any suggestions from tools to security cameras, or whatever else you can think of. What should every new home owner consider getting?
Edit: in Canada btw, somewhere that gets a lot of snow in the winter
I disagree, don’t buy cheap tools, especially screwdrivers. You don’t need to break the bank, but the cheapest options are going to be problematic for a number of reasons. Not only are the cheap tools, themselves, prone to breaking, but they also have the potential to strip your screws. Depending on what you’re working on, that screw may be almost impossible to replace, if it’s not in a standard sizing.
Personally, I suggest Wiha tools, based on a recommendation I received here on Lemmy about a year ago. They’re made with high-quality materials so they’re a bit more expensive than your typical Craftsman garbage, but they’re not unreasonably priced, and far from being the most expensive in their category. I’ve got a few Wiha driver sets that I make use of pretty frequently, and they’re all still in excellent condition, and none of them have ever stripped a screw yet, despite my clumsy ass handling them.
