Spring will be here soon, we have all been sitting home for a year,, not spending money.
Most of us guys have a complement of needed tools,
but,
our ladies seldom have all the tools they would like,,
Yea, they are also getting "cabin fever", some tools, just for them, might be the thing to get them moving outside of the TV room,,,

So, maybe we need some ideas as to what are the "BEST TOOLS" for our spouses,,

Generally, a lighter tool makes sense for those with less upper body strength.
A 12 volt cordless drill might be a better choice than an 18 volt, 6.0 AH do everything drill driver.

A cordless battery chainsaw, instead of a 20 pull to start 2 cycle, 6.0 cubic inch arm buster saw,,, :eek:

Lets get ready for the weather to turn nice,,,

What are your ideas? What tools will make your home more pleasant to live in? :D

I got my wife a Ryobi cordless hedge trimmer last year, after she refused to leave mine alone. She has become highly skilled with that tool and it's incredible just how effective a good hedge trimmer in the hands of an expert can be. With a backpack of extra batteries and leather gloves, she has cleared over 1.5 miles of walking trails meandering through our property. Both ground brush and small overhead branchs she hedges out and opens a path. Then i usually follow her trail with a cordless Makita chainsaw, trimming trees along the path to head height and removing anything too big for the hedge trimmer. We use those trails for evening walks with our dog.

SWMBO has a 36v chainsaw and an easystart Stihl line cutter, she also likes the Honda buffalo hand mower, has her own 12v drill/impact driver kit, she has a habit of parking them upright on top of a stepladder and has broken one, my Milwaukee 18v fuel tools are out of bounds.

My "Her" has a Craftsman cordless screwdriver set that she purchased several years ago on her own.

And she has a small toolbox with hand tools that she keeps in the tack room in horse barn.

Knowing Sharn Jean like I do, my choice would be between a Lincoln and a Cadillac.

I did not realize there is a difference between my tools and her tools.
