Now there is 'The quantity of tools!' This  really depends on a personal understanding and courage to tackle a particular job that presents itself, it may require a  specialist tool and will eventually allow one to amass a large collection of tools, (to your live-in partner's/wife's dismay and ear bending). The logic here is, if you are capable of doing  the job to a reasonable standard,  it saves money long term by not having to employ others to do the jobs, saving money for those luxury items.....like the restaurant or flowers for your loved one. (Yes right! Or those new set of chromed wheels and exhaust, oh! And now being single again, just a thought, Where are those girls that like cars that you see in the pictures or on TV?).....

Then there is 'security'!  As you are aware, tools are expensive, you only have to look at the prices of the Imperial offset ring spanners over the past few years, they have become like rocking horse droppings, the price has risen from an average of around £20 for a decent set of 12 and now they can cost £175 for a set, rediculous! However, that is the way it is, so security is important. Family or if in the trade colleagues, can be the worst, when it comes to borrowing and walking off with tools, it is convenient and cheap for them to do this and sadly without remorse. The sign above 'Tool Rules',  (pause here and have a look above, I can wait as it is important) is the key to keeping you tools safe and suggests what to do to keep them, saving you cost in the future. Without security, The loss can paint a hard and in some cases a painful lesson.

Within this section, I look at the 'economy buy', for those with a low income if any, without sacrificing the serviceability or quality of work.  My personal observation or comments, are basic common sense although not p.c., (as you have probably guessed) does accompany most of the work and items purchased or discussed, and is usually associated with maintaining currently, my new project:     'The Mazda RX8 Evolve', a great car in my book, reviews are good, but there can still be problems or traits to keep them from being serviceable and on the road to Vosa Standards or even beyond their standards. I try to address this where and when possible by DIY.  Welcome! You are considered along for the ride..... or you can just look at the pictures, I did choose them carefully to emphasise the sleekness and streamlines of the design.
