Markdown Mom’s Toolbox
June 25th, 2006 by markdownmom
Everyone knows that if you live in an apartment or house, you will need certain tools occasionally either for improvements, decorating, or repair. Besides the hammer, screwdrivers (both flathead and phillips), and wrench, MDM has found other tools that are invaluable to have on hand. This category will explore the various tools MDM has in her toolbox, and the best sources and prices to purchase them.
The first tool, MDM recommends is the Rubber Mallet which is similar to a hammer, but oh so much more. Rubber Mallets are useful when you need the pounding force of a hammer, but do not want the hard striking head which can put dents into wood and metal, split wood on a delicate repair on antique furniture, or assembling a diy framing or other craft projects. MDM found this Rubber Hammer at Target™ in its’ Red Spot bins for $1.00! This is a great price for this handy tool.
