 | Porter-Cable 325MAG 15 Amp 7-1/4-Inch Circular Saw with Blade Right and Brake
This is an awesome saw. It pretty much runs itself, but wear your earplugs with this one. I'm glad I paid a little extra for the brake.

 | DEWALT DW304PK Heavy-Duty 10 Amp Reciprocating Saw
Buy new: $93.93 / Used from: $74.99 I got this saw for 60 bucks. For a cheap "sawzall" it has a lot of capability. I like the 4-position blade clamp a lot.
|
 | Porter-Cable C2001-WK 7.5 Amp draw 1-1/2 Horsepower 6 Gallon Oil-Free Pancake Compressor with 13 Piece Accessory Kit
This compressor has an amazing amount of air output for the price. It can easily sustain multiple finish nailers or a framing nailer.
|
 | DEWALT D51275K 1-1/4-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch 15-Gauge Angled Finish Nailer Kit
Buy new: $210.73 / Used from: $125.00 I bought the refurbished version of this nailer for 50 bucks. Freaking awesome...15 gauge finish nails might seem a little overboard, but it's sweeeet.
|
 | Storehorse 10008 31-Inch Tall Sawhorse with Top Protector, Pair
Nice that you can put a 2x in here and go through it with the "skil" saw. Pretty strong for some plastic.
|
 | Black & Decker JS200 Variable Speed Jigsaw with Sightline
Buy new: $43.61 Not a bad cheap saw. I should probably get a quality jig saw but this little guy keeps doing good enough for me.
|
 | Skil 2336-01 3.6-Volt Mini-Drill/Driver
This thing actually puts out a reasonable amount of torque. I use it mostly when I'm doing electrical work (so much screw turning!) and when I'm removing sheet rock screws that missed.
|
 | DEWALT DW257 Heavy-Duty 6.2 Amp Deck/Drywall Screwdriver
Buy new: $99.99 / Used from: $59.00 Got a refurbished one dirt cheap. Makes doing drywall a snap. Don't use a regular cordless drill.
|
 | Factory-Reconditioned RotoZip RZ02-1100-RT RZ2 5 Amp 30,000 RPM Spiral Saw
Buy new: $69.00 Great for cutting out excellent holes in drywall. Definitely beats a keyhole saw.
|
 | Empire e70.48 48-Inch Professional Aluminum Box Level
Buy new: $49.97 I don't have this level, but if the Craftsman levels weren't cheaper for the same guaranteed accuracy, I'd get one of these. Plus, they're pretty.
|
 | Klein Tools 1412 Dual Non-Metal Cable Stripper and 12 to 14 Gauge Solid Wire Cutter
Buy new: $18.99 Pretty much my favorite NM cable stripper.
|
 | Makita 9911 5.6 Amp 3-Inch by 18-Inch Variable Speed Belt Sander with Cloth Dust Bag
Buy new: $137.67 My nice, cheap belt sander.
|
 | Empire Level 2990 Heavy Duty Magnum Rafter Square 7-1/2-Inch Length
Buy new: $9.08 Can't live without this baby.
|
 | Swanson 12-Inch Combo Square (Cast Zinc Body, Stainless Steel Blade and Brass Bolt)
Buy new: $11.52 Pretty nice for a cheap combo square.
|
 | Swanson Framing Wizard (5 layout tools In-One)
Buy new: $17.32 This is sort of a bizarre tool but it works very well.
|
 | Black & Decker MS550GB Mouse 5 Amp Detail Sander /Polisher with 41 Piece Accessory Pack
A piece of crap. I bought it for something specific and it sort of worked, so I can't complain too much.
|
 | Stanley 33-890L 25-Foot FatMax Xtreme Tape Rule with Blade Armor
Buy new: $24.90 This thing is awesome.
|
 | Stanley 55-116 8-inch Nail Puller - Chisel Scraper
Buy new: $9.80 Can't live without one of these.
