Are you a DIY enthusiast, do you enjoy building things and when something breaks in the house you run straight to fix it or are you now taking your first timid steps in this project? Whether you are already, or want to become another Bob the Builder you need to be equipped with all the tools you will need to complete any easy or difficult project. Let's see in detail what exactly you will need and where to start.

1. The essentials... that should not be missing from any home

Starting to build your own "toolbox", you need those tools that are intended for several of the everyday tasks that may arise in a home, are simply in use and you can easily and economically find them.

• Screwdriver: Necessary tool for screwing and unscrewing screws in various tasks, such as assembling furniture, "opening" a device, etc.
• Hammer: Ideal for easy placement (guide) of nails and other accessories, but also for breaking objects, such as cutting wood, demolishing walls, etc.
• Pliers: It is a tool that can be useful in tasks involving cables or wires (gripping, bending, and cutting) and it is not possible to hold them with bare hands or it is a precision job that is not easy to do by hand.
• Adjustable wrench: Here there are many different types of wrenches that help in the easy placement or removal of various sizes of bolts and nuts.
• Measuring tape: One of the must-have gadgets that every home should have, for precise measurements. You will need it for the simplest use, such as measuring a distance to see if your new furniture fits, but also for more demanding tasks, such as tile placement.
• Socket and Spanner Set: It is a set that is really worth getting, as it contains many components of different sizes. It is a useful set for tightening bolts, securing or removing accessories in pipes, or repairing/installing devices.

2. Technical Sprays

It may have never crossed your mind, but technical sprays are a chapter that you are not familiar with until you need them. And when that moment comes, if you don't have it, you will regret not knowing about it. Is it a vicious circle or a headache? You won't need to find out if you have purchased the appropriate technical sprays for every use.

Indicatively, the following types are more likely to be needed:

• Anticorrosive: As the name suggests, it is your ally against rust and is suitable for use on the hinges of a creaking door that needs renewal, on cabinets, or anywhere else rust may appear.
• Silicone: This type of spray will be very useful if you no longer want rubber and plastic objects to stick and show deformation due to moisture.
• Leaks: The perfect spray to permanently seal any kind of crack in walls, tiles, and small objects such as vases and other decorations.
• Waterproofing: It is the ideal spray if you want to protect your constructions or other objects from water and other stubborn stains.

You can also get spray lubricant for reducing friction and wear, protecting the moving parts of an object or a machine, cleaning spray for removing dirt and tough stains, or a cooling spray for immediate cooling of surfaces and mechanical parts to solve problems, such as on a circuit board.

3. Electric tools that will solve your hands

In the process of enriching your collection of tools and as you become familiar with constructions and everyday tasks that may arise, you will realize that you probably need something more. And what is that? Tools that will make the process easier, less time-consuming, and without much effort and fatigue. 

The reason for this is the electric tools, such as an electric screwdriver, which will be useful for assembling furniture, for example, during a move or a glue gun, with which you can repair broken objects. Additionally, with a hot air gun, you can transform old objects into a "blank canvas" to create from scratch, while with an electric sander, you can polish or smooth surfaces.

4. Essential Accessories

Of course, along with the tools you will need those accessories and parts that are essential for their proper and easy use.

Specifically, to increase the usage time of electric tools that do not operate with electricity, you can purchase an extra battery and charger, while accessories such as cleaning brushes and stands will be useful for a wider use of the tools, as well as for maintenance and storage.

5. Don't forget...the lighting

If you prefer to create constructions and new objects at night or if something unexpected happens and needs to be fixed during the night, you will need the appropriate lighting to do your work properly. A flashlight is definitely a must-have for your collection, but if you want something more, you can get a projector or a workshop flashlight.

6. Chapter...storage

And once you have decided which are the necessary tools and accessories for your needs, all you have to do is find the appropriate tool storage to store them and have them all organized together. Depending on the usage and your needs, you can choose a bag for smaller tools that you want to easily carry with you or a toolbox for larger and heavier tools.

If your hands don't hold much and you want to have the essentials, you can get a toolkit with tools. This way you will have what you need, all in one place, while being able to easily and quickly transport them from home to the countryside, or anywhere else.

Toothpastes

As important as choosing the right toothbrush is, so is choosing the ideal toothpaste.
