From the job to the tool family

This area is organized by job. Hand tools cover turning, cutting and gripping; power tools and air equipment handle drilling, sawing and grinding; attachments and parts keep them cutting; and hardware, paint, welding and soldering supplies cover the finishing and joining. Begin with what you will do most, buy for that, and add specialist tools only when a project needs them. Mixed sets are worth buying only if you will use most of the pieces.

For most households the first decisions are hand tools and a drill. A basic set of hand tools, with sockets, wrenches, pliers and screwdrivers, covers most repairs, and a cordless drill-driver handles the rest. See hand tools for the home and garage and power tools and air equipment for the two main routes, and add storage once the collection outgrows a drawer.

Battery platform, drive size and wheel ratings

Cordless tools are sold on battery platforms. Higher voltage generally means more power, and amp-hours, such as 2, 4 or 5 Ah, set runtime, but batteries and chargers are normally interchangeable only within one maker's system, so choose the platform before the tool. Corded tools suit long jobs at a bench. Air tools need a compressor that delivers enough air at the pressure the tool requires, so compare the tool's airflow need with the compressor's rating.

Small numbers prevent big mistakes. Drive sizes of 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 inch must match between socket and ratchet. Cutting wheels and grinding discs have a diameter, an arbor hole and a maximum speed in rpm, and the speed rating must exceed your tool's. Household batteries and casters turn up here too: match battery size and chemistry to the device, and caster stem or plate fitting and load rating to the item.

Questions about Hand Tools, Power Tools and Hardware

Which battery platform should I choose for cordless tools?
Choose the system whose tools you expect to need over time, because batteries and chargers fit within one system. Compare the voltage and amp-hour options, whether bare-tool versions are offered if you already own batteries, and whether the range covers the specialist tools you may want later.
What does the rpm rating on a cutting wheel mean?
It is the maximum speed the wheel can safely spin. Your grinder or saw must not exceed it at its no-load speed, or the wheel can shatter. Match the wheel diameter and arbor hole to the tool, and keep the guard that came with it in place.
Do I need a compressor for air tools?
Yes. Air tools run on compressed air, so check the tool's required airflow, in cubic feet per minute at a stated pressure, against the compressor's output, and use hoses and fittings of the right size. A compressor that cannot keep up makes tools run slowly or stall.
