“10 of the best tips for mens tools”

Now if you are a woman and you love to work with tools this is for you too.:)

1. If you ever have trouble with your tools rusting using several mothballs in a toolbox will actually absorb moisture and prevent the tools from rusting.
2. You can also use a pail of dry, clean sand as a storage place for some of your smaller tools.  This technique will slow down the rusting process.
3. If you keep a piece of charcoal in your toolbox you will absorb the moisture and prevent rusting as well.
4. When dealing with oil and transferring from one bottle to another, if you have a cone shaped paper cup, you can improvise a funnel by cutting the tip off of your paper cup. Pretty sweet!
5. If the handle of your hammer is loose, you can tighten it up by soaking it in engine oil for a few hours.  What happens is the oil swells the wood, making it “like new” again.
6. When you are using a yardstick for marking or cutting, if you coat the bottom side of the yardstick with soap, the soap will keep the stick in place.
7. To get a better grip on your favorite screw driver(is there such a thing:)), force a piece of garden hose over the handle of the screwdriver.  You will also have fewer blisters guaranteed
8. When you are beginning to saw, to avoid plywood from splitting, put a strip of cellophane tape at the exact point where you plan to start sawing.  This also works great if you are cutting counter tops.
9. If you are not so good at drawing an accurate line on wood, the best solution for that is to use a knife rather than a pencil
10. Last but not least, if you are going to drill through metal or hard wood, first place a small piece of masking tape on the spot and then start drilling.  The result of this action:it will keep your drill from slipping.
