thebuffettour asked:

I am a Cub Scout Den Leader and I wanted to have the boys build a birdhouse. My thought was to set up 4 stations including a table saw, hand drill, hammer and a nail gun. All the safety devices would be set and a parent would be at every station to help the boys use the tools.
Really it was going to be that the boys make one cut (on one piece) on the table saw. Drill a hole for the perch and then hammer in the perch. They would then use the nail gun to put the house together. I have done this several times with my own son but one parent is bawking at the idea thinking the kids are too young.
What do you think?

Heidiva asked:


I want to be “handy” around the house–I live in the country, by the way, in the rural mountains, and I have to do a lot of thing around here myself. What is the definitive list of tools that I should get to start my collection? Preferably, I would have a short list and a long list.

What I think I should have/want is the following:
drill
skill saw
sander
Dremmel
draw knife
nail gun
staple gun
hammers

Any brand suggestions/warnings?

Thanks!
