Must have tools

I acquire tools as I make things. The last coop I made I ended up selling. The sale covered the cost of materials and a portable radial arm saw. Totally worth it.

A few minutes ago I went outside to put up a bit of chicken wire on the coop. After about five staples I stopped. No longer is a manual staple gun useful. In a pinch and at the right angle I can use it but for $50 I can get a battery powered one that also is a light duty nail gun. SOLD!

So I'm putting off the chicken wire until my new gun gets here.

Capture

A little Tim the Toom Man grunt escaped my lips as I hit the cart button.

Oh I so get that. Now you need to find all the things that can use a good stappling

Outside of buying a good starter kit, buy it as you need it is the best plan for acquiring tools.
