Power Tools
Some good power tools to get started with?
Well im planning to build a shed in the back yard.
What are some good power tools to get started with?
From home depot or lows.
Thanks
Give as much info as possiable thanks guys!
Buy the best quality you can afford. Get extra batteries if the item does not come with a couple, especially a drill. There used to be a lot of power difference between battery operated and corded drills but that isn't as big a problem as it once was. I can't tell you the last time my husband used his corded drill; it's been years!
Now circular saws that are corded still do a better job. He has a little battery operated circular saw that does great for thin materials like paneling because it doesn't run as fast but for brute cutting strength, a corded one is still better.
A miter saw can cut a lot of material like you would be cutting for a shed. Hubby uses his a ton! Then you would only have to use the circular saw for things like sheet goods (plywood or T111).
Dewalt is one of the brands of choice here. Hubby has several Dewalt items and they have lasted and still work really well. He's got a few of the higher end Black & Decker (used to be called Firestorm) and he's also happy with that set up.
Buy the best you can afford, what fits comfortably in your hand. You can go a long way with a cordless drill set up, and a circular saw or a miter/chop saw.
