Shoes, bed, pillows, tires, power tools, office chair (if you're an office worker)

The mantra is always be willing to imvest in anything you are putting between yourself and the ground.

Power tools are a good addition tho

anything you are putting between yourself and the ground.

This, of course, includes safety gear. Sometimes keeping you off the ground is actually more favourable.

power tools

Listen my cheapo Milwaukee drill has lasted me like 8 years of abuse. You don't want to know where it's been.

[โ€“] bitchkat 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Milwaukee isn't a cheap brand though.

[โ€“] PP_BOY_ 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah haha. Maybe the most expensive brand you can buy off the shelf here. Only thing more expensive is Hilti or Festool

[โ€“] bitchkat 1 points 8 months ago

I see Tommy using Festool all the time on This Old House but have never seen it in the stores I go to.

Black and decker drill has lasted me over 10 years now. Bought it at menards.
