While buying certain products and furniture, or paying professionals for repairs, is certainly the easiest way, nothing is as satisfying as DIY. Doing small repairs or creating something new, or even more complex tasks, gives you a huge sense of satisfaction. In addition, the idea of being able to save money on certain household tasks is not insignificant. In order to be able to work properly, however, in addition to manual skills and practice, it is essential to have the right Working Tools. No one would even dream of working on table legs or lamp wires without the right tools; there are too many risks of getting hurt (and the results can be very unpleasant to see).

So let’s see how ProduceShop helps us realise our dream of becoming true DIY wizards; tools and worktops, shelves and tools for every need and activity. And some final advice on how to get around in this wonderful world of DIY (Do It Yourself!).

Bricolage and do-it-yourself with the right tools

Spaces first

Like any self-respecting hobby or leisure activity, DIY also requires a suitable space. If playing an instrument or drawing requires little space, working on specific materials with appropriate tools certainly requires adequate space. Moreover, the choice of the right place also depends on the type of work we want to do.

For example, if we decide to work with wood and metal for small creations, repairs or artistic work, the perfect place will be the garage or a small workshop; certainly having a suitable space, such as a separate room or a wooden shed, would be the most comfortable solution. But since not everyone has space to reuse, a corner of the garage will be more than fine. For do-it-yourself at home, which usually includes small creative jobs and gadgets, your own living room or a corner of your study is sufficient; since we deal with non-hazardous materials and specific tools, we certainly do not need large spaces.

Finally, there is the do-it-yourself garden; of course (and very trivially) you need at least a garden. Specific gardening tools can then be stored in a shed or garage, and the type of work is very different from classic DIY, but undoubtedly very satisfying.
Whichever activity you choose, never forget two constants however: cleanliness and safety.
Equip yourself with various useful safety equipment, such as gloves, goggles and helmets. Once the work is finished, vacuum up the residue and wipe it off with a wet cloth.

In addition to space, think about where to store your work tools

Choosing the right tools and worktops requires a few small steps. Let’s take a brief look at the most useful tips.

  1. Tool sets and cases

    When choosing tool sets, tool cases and trolleys you should essentially consider three variables:

    • The use you will make of the tools, which means what kind of activity you will be doing; too many tools for too little work is wasteful and takes up space. On the other hand, for complex jobs you should always have the right tools available.
    • The materials of the tools and case; while steel and plastic are obviously a must for tools, the case or trolley can be made of either plastic or aluminium.
    • The practicality of your set; make sure that, once closed, it is easy to store and stow. Choose one with multiple shelves and compartments if you have a lot of tools; consider wheels and extendable handles.
  2. Shelves

    Make sure of the quality of the materials; sometimes we are talking about structures that have to support discrete weights, and finding yourself with all your equipment on the floor would be unpleasant to say the least. The number of shelves should be chosen according to the equipment to be stored and the space in which it will be placed.

  3. Workbenches

    Here, too, there are several features to consider. You can choose a bench made entirely of wood, like a carpenter’s bench, or one made of metal, or one made up of the two materials, for structure and shelves; be sure that it is divided into the spaces necessary for working, hanging frequently used tools, and storing other ones.

    The measurements depend on the space in which you are going to put it; while some people choose a folding shelf, many opt for a fixed workstation; relying on clamps, clips and heavy equipment will certainly be safer. However always take your measurements with caution, including consideration of dead spots and space to move around. The design, in the end, depends only on you and your taste; working in an environment that is also beautiful to look at will certainly have its advantages.

Having said that, a little advice on budget and brand; if choosing work tools and accessories for the space requires a certain investment, be sure that this will be diluted over time. As well as saving money on repairs and small jobs, you won’t find yourself changing tools after a short time. Therefore, relying on a quality supplier such as ProduceShop, and an established brand such as Stark Pro, could be the best choice.

DIY Bonus!

In today’s bonus, we read together the advice of Cesar V., our design and DIY consultant.
Topic: reusing pallets.

“There are several solutions that a wooden pallet can offer in the home. If you are familiar with DIY, you can create small masterpieces. Reusing a wooden pallet is a great way to recycle; design and sustainability become an interesting and fascinating combination.
For example, screw 4 pallets together on the floor and give them a coat of brightener, and you have a wonderful base for a futon. With two pallets in front vertically, cut two more in half; join two halves vertically at the sides and the other two horizontally on top, and you have a fantastic counter for a country-style home bar. Pay attention to the corners, you can play with interesting spaces and geometries. Re-open your Mac XL toolbox now, arm yourself with patience and creativity, and by disassembling the pallet you can reassemble a beautiful hanging lamp with a vintage but very chic design. “

You’ve got it all: selection tips, best-of list, creativity bonus. Now all you have to do is choose the best Work Tools from the ProduceShop range and let the DIY wizard that lives inside each of you out
