There comes a time in life where a basic tool set should be part of anyone’s inventory. Be it, you just moved out of your parent’s house, became a first time homeowner and have to hang up a picture or you were summoned to a friend’s place to help assemble a night table. You will notice that under those circumstances tools would come in handy.
In case you are thinking of giving someone a basic tool set for their birthday, welcome gift, promotional gift or whatever other reason, a standard size hammer and a descent screwdriver set should be considered a perfect base for a standard tool set. Opt for a screwdriver set that can tackle all the different types of screws like the slotted screw, the Phillips (the cross), the hex and the Robertsons (the square).
Now that the basics have been determined you can fill up the tool box with a few more items. A measuring tape comes in handy more often than one thinks. Protective gear like work gloves, goggles, safety glasses or a mask points out to the novice tool man that safety is an important aspect when working with tools. Also include a lock so tools are unreachable to children. A flashlight, heavy duty extension cord, level, utility knife, scissors, cleaning supplies, pliers, saw or wrench are all bits and pieces that can go into that magic box, now or later as another donation. Building up the content of a tool chest is fun. As the user’s experiences expand and the home improvement projects get more elaborate and intricate, your presents can become the same. Wait until the electric tools sneak in! On thing is for certain: once a toolbox finds its way into a home, you can start mapping out what gift you will be buying next – maybe even a miniature tool belt for junior!
