Product Description
A tool-by-tool guide to choosing and using 150 essentials.

Tools is the ultimate easy-to-follow blueprint for getting equipped - and getting started. This friendly, uncomplicated beginner's reference covers all the essentials, organised into eight kits - for home, car and beyond.

Whether you have a job in mind and don't know where to start or simply want to feel more knowledgeable at the hardware store, this guide is packed with sound advice on what you need to build up your kit - and how to identify the right tool for the right job.

Without the ability to make intelligent use of tools, you are just another primate. There is an enormous diversity of tools that humans have developed over the ages yet each has evolved to its current form for one reason - the desire to use the best tool for the job.
