All the necessary set of tools you. Necessary tools for construction work. Electric tools in the house

So, let's say that you have finally finished making repairs and now the task is to leave at home only those hand-held power tools for homework that can be useful in Everyday life. In general, you can generally do without power tools if everything has already been done on a turnkey basis. But still, let's go through the most popular electric building units and try to understand whether they will be useful to us for performing typical “man in the house” tasks.

screwdriver

As practice and feedback from users of building communities and forums show, it will be almost impossible to live without a screwdriver. And this is not surprising - after all, you always need to screw something up somewhere, redo it, or move it to another place. Often, an ordinary screwdriver will also cope with these tasks, but we are used to saving our own time, and it’s not in vain that progress is stepping forward: it’s time to get used to comfort.

What is important to know when choosing

  • Choose the right bits for all the slots found in your home;
  • For the home, a corded screwdriver is also quite suitable, but if you don’t want to run around with carriers, unravel the wires, it’s better to use a cordless one;

Impact drill or hammer drill

The walls in our apartments are most often made of bricks or blocks, and the ceilings are made of concrete floors, so it is important to have a percussion instrument. Well, its use is quite understandable: to hang a picture, a shelf or a mirror, and also to outweigh what was done during the repair fuss, contrary to the rules of the interior. There are also three-mode rotary hammers: drilling, impact drilling, slotting. Universal tools that replace several others are popular among home craftsmen.

What is important to know when choosing

  • Pick the right drills, remember that for concrete you need victorious ones. The most popular sizes of drills: 4, 5, 6, 8, 10mm, we recommend purchasing them in a set, where they are packed in a convenient case. So the drills will not be lost and will be convenient to use;
  • Take care of your neighbors. Remember that a neighbor with a puncher is the embodiment of hell on Earth, do not make enemies for yourself. Operate the hammer during reasonable hours and not daily;
  • It may be worth getting a mixing attachment in case you are thinking of a small local refurbishment of the repair.

Screwdriver

It will help to assemble / disassemble a computer, change or repair an outlet with a switch. Again, it is replaced by a set of screwdrivers, but here it’s convenient for anyone.

What is important to know when choosing

  • Choose the right bits. You may need small bits for spot work;

electric grinder

For those who like to “correctly” sharpen a knife and those who do not want to mess with a whetstone, an electric grinder will do just fine to save time.

What is important to know when choosing

  • Protect yourself and environment from sparks arising in the process of working with this tool;

grinder

If the floors are wooden, then this tool may fit and even be quite popular. But in general, its necessity seems doubtful. In a country house, if there are stairs, a wooden floor in a bath can become an indispensable assistant.

construction vacuum cleaner

If you are often going to make or remodel something in a house or apartment, a construction vacuum cleaner can help with one of the most hated tasks of a builder - cleaning up after work. An ordinary vacuum cleaner will not cope with a large amount of construction debris and quickly become clogged, but a construction vacuum cleaner will suck up all the waste from your production with pleasure.

chain saw

In a country house with a bath, it will help with the quick preparation of firewood. Also with its help it is possible to work on a site with thick trees.

reciprocating saw

In an apartment, it is unlikely that you will be able to find a use for this tool, but in a suburban garden plot suitable for trimming branches and local installation work with wood, pipes.

Angle grinder (Bulgarian)

Considering how versatile this tool is, which can cut, grind and replace a wall chaser, perhaps a 125 mm angle grinder. will definitely come in handy on the farm.

Multifunctional tool (renovator)

Until now, disputes about this tool have not subsided: someone considers it indispensable in view of its versatility, someone insists on its unprofessionalism and inefficiency. However, we recommend that you at least take a closer look at such tools, because for rare non-global works, the renovator can be very useful, while not taking up much space. And given the possibility of expanding its functionality by purchasing additional nozzles and a fairly affordable price, buying this universal tool becomes more and more alluring. The Bosch Gop and Black & Decker Multievo models are popular, primarily due to the rich set of features out of the box.

Multievo promises to replace 10 tools:

  • drill;
  • jigsaw;
  • grinder;
  • mini-disc saw for wood, chipboard, MDF and laminate;
  • oscillating tool (cuts into wood and drywall);
  • milling cutter;
  • screwdriver (included are nozzle bits);
  • trimer garden;
  • perforator;
  • pump with pressure gauge;

Just do not try to make repairs completely exclusively with this tool, because the hammer attachment will never give the functionality, power and efficiency that a classic electric hammer with one function (and sometimes several speed modes) has.
But for small tweaks it will do. And considering that all this will fit in one case and will not get lost around the apartment or country house- very tempting.

  • do not buy bad and cheap power tools for the home. Give preference to value for money. An expensive brand is not always good, and among unknown manufacturers you can find quite high-quality devices;
  • Don't forget about quality. A tool without consumables will lie idle;
  • Purchase protective equipment and boxes or cases for easy storage.

Homeowners often face renovation problems. It can be finishing cosmetic work and serious general redevelopment with the replacement of the floor and other structures. And sometimes there is a need to repair or replace the outlet, hang a new shelf, put together the purchased furniture. There is a lot of housework, and therefore, in order to be able to do it, you should have tools, without which it is impossible to cope with repairs and other important matters.

A real man should be the owner of a whole arsenal, consisting of a hammer, a hacksaw, a screwdriver and other special equipment.

The most necessary tools

Every home should always have:
1. A hammer is an essential item in repair work. Except locksmith's hammer not bad to have an ordinary wooden one.
2. It is advisable to purchase ordinary screwdrivers in a set so that the necessary nozzles are always at hand.
3. Pliers and pliers in the house are also essential tools. Pliers with handles made of insulating material will help you safely repair, for example, an electrical outlet.

4. Roulette is a fairly versatile device. Without it, one cannot find out the parameters of structures or the distance from one point of the room to another when planning the purchase of furniture. It will be difficult to cope with such calculations with an ordinary school ruler.
5. A set of various wrenches can replace a pair - three adjustable wrenches.
6. A hacksaw is not often used, but its presence is mandatory. A hacksaw is also worth having in the house.
7. Let the ax be small in the apartment, but in a private house or in the country it is obligatory to have one that can chop wood.
8. The building level will help to complete many works without distortions.

Electric tools in the house

Availability home master electrical tools greatly simplifies the implementation of many works. In addition, power tools allow you to do things not only faster, but also better.

Using a drill, it will be easy to make a hole in any surface, even in a wall using special nozzles.

A screwdriver will help reduce the time to assemble furniture or repair something without effort.

The perforator is used for serious work during overhaul in the apartment and for making holes in concrete, stone or brick with victorious tips.

The grinder will replace the hacksaw and will reduce the work time quite significantly. Special removable discs can cut tiles, metal and many other materials.

The presence of a real home master of all the listed tools and appliances will contribute to quick repair and carrying out various ongoing work in the home. The presence of all sorts of other tools in the house is usually accompanied by one or another male hobby.

Everything fewer men know how to want to hold a hammer or a drill in their hands. "Why? I'd rather make money and hire a professional." But a woman appreciates when her husband does the housework himself, with his own hands. A man is not when he is drunk and in a vest. A man is the one behind whom is like behind a stone wall.

If you are going to do repairs, then read other relevant articles.

Our portal has already talked about what opportunities open up for a home master who decides to make furniture on his own. In the article you can read about basic principles and the "tricks" used by professional carpenters and the right master cabinetmakers.

In continuation of the topic we have begun, in this article we talk about what tools a novice carpenter needs, and which of the popular sets should be purchased “for growth”.

  • Where to start choosing a tool for making furniture;
  • Is it possible to do quality furniture without special tool;
  • What is the minimum set of good hand tools needed for a beginner carpenter. Our rating;
  • How to choose power tools for the workshop;
  • What power tools do professional cabinet makers use. The best tool from a professional point of view;
  • How to approach the arrangement of a furniture workshop;
  • What is the difference between jointer and planer.

How to approach the choice of carpentry tools

A firm decision was made to self-manufacturing furniture. However, one desire is not enough - you need an appropriate tool. This is where the main "pitfall" lies.

Many novice craftsmen believe that it is impossible to make high-quality furniture without a large assortment of expensive and professional tools. The result of this popular approach is well known. A beginner either does not dare to start working, believing that “without this device I will not succeed”, or falls into the other extreme - “runs” around the shops, buying the best tool, not even understanding whether he needs one or the other, and how to use it.

However, at the initial stage, it is quite possible to get by with a minimum set of reliable amateur-level tools. The main thing is to give yourself the opportunity to consciously approach the choice, guided by the principle: buy tools for the carpentry workshop as needed.

A good example of this approach is a bed made by the spouse of a member of our portal with the nickname Regina Peter.

Regina Peter FORUMHOUSE User

My husband and I moved to the countryside for permanent residence. We needed a double bed. The husband decided to make it by all means himself, although before that he didn’t even hold a small hammer in his hands, and didn’t make anything at all. My husband told me his vision, and I drew a bed in a special program. As a result, we settled on this option.

The boards and balusters that went to the legs of the bed were bought from a nearby store. building materials. The work began to boil, and this is what the novice master ended up with.

The most interesting thing is that this correct bed was made with a minimal set of hand tools, and all the details were cut out with a reliable garden saw “taken away” from my wife!

Regina Peter

You could buy a ready-made bed in a store, but the pleasure of work, and most importantly, the end result, cannot be compared with anything. The husband, as they say, got a taste, continued to carpentry and after the bed made an insulated front door and then the table.

Conclusion: you need to start making furniture with the manufacture of simple products that require the most elementary reliable tools: stools, simple beds, simple tables, shelves, etc. And only after the passage of time, with the growth of skill, you can think about acquiring an expensive and professional tool. This is the only way to ensure that the purchase will be in demand, and will not be a waste of money.

In "furniture carpentry" the main thing is to "feel" the tree, learn how to use the tool, understand whether you like this business. Only in this case you will create products that will become your pride.

You should also figure out in advance what kind of furniture you will make, cabinet - cabinets, or whole kitchen sets etc., or soft - sofas, armchairs. Or the soul lies more in solid furniture of the author's work, with an abundance of complex figured and carved elements. Each direction requires its own, specific tool, but you need to start with the formation of a basic and universal set.

The most popular tools for the home carpenter.

Wood carpentry tool

To simplify your task, all the necessary tools can be divided into three large groups:

  1. Hand tool;
  2. Tooling and expendable materials;
  3. Power tool.

Let's take a closer look at each of these groups.

Hand tools include:

  • Hand saw for wood and metal;
  • Hand planers and jointers;
  • Manual jigsaw;
  • A set of chisels for wood;
  • Iron nail hammer;
  • Mallet with a rubber or wooden striker;
  • Furniture stapler;
  • Pliers;
  • Shoe knife;
  • Awl;
  • adjustable wrench;
  • A set of screwdrivers with a straight or Phillips edge;
  • wire cutters.

Equipment and consumables:

  • Vice for a workbench;
  • Clamps. They act as a "third hand", allowing you to fix the details during processing or gluing;
  • Pencil and marker;
  • Forstner drill. They are used for drilling non-through holes with a flat bottom (for internal hinges) in wood and board materials: chipboard, MDF, etc. Due to their design, such drills do not tear wood fibers, leaving behind a smooth surface;
  • Ring crowns for wood. Used for cutting through round hole large diameter(20-130 mm) in wood, chipboard sheets etc;
  • Drills for metal with a diameter of 2 to 10 mm, in increments of 0.5 to 1 mm;
  • Drills with a hard-alloy tip. Used for drilling concrete to hang shelves, etc.;
  • Screwdriver bit set;
  • A set of drills for wood, with a diameter of 2 to 12 mm.

  • Roulette length from 3 to 5 meters;
  • Metal ruler from 50 to 100 cm long;
  • Metal square with a side of 30 cm;
  • Level 50-60 cm long.

Adding to this set just impact drill and a screwdriver, a person "with hands" can do a lot. In addition to the manufacture of furniture, these tools can be used for any repairs in the house or in the country.

Also, do not forget about the need for a workbench, because. it is impossible to work normally "on the knee" and get a quality product.

Sitnikoff FORUMHOUSE user,
Moscow.

A furniture workshop is unthinkable without a workbench. I made my first workbench from a 100x50 mm board. The boards were "junk" - left over from waste at a construction site. Therefore, the workbench turned out to be not the most successful, but it still serves me as an assembly table.

Choosing a power tool for a carpentry workshop

If there are usually no problems with choosing a hand tool, then when it comes to choosing a power tool, a lot of questions arise. Therefore, it is important to make a basic list of the essentials.

To the so-called. basic power tools, without which it is impossible or difficult to make furniture, include:

  • Electric drill;
  • Electric screwdriver;
  • Electric jigsaw;
  • Belt grinder.

This set is enough to start making, albeit not the most complex, but high-quality products. In the future, as the skill grows and the complexity of the work, the list best tools will be replenished.

When choosing a power tool for a novice master, the main thing is not to go to extremes, buying only the cheapest models or chasing expensive ones. professional products one manufacturer High Quality. It is worth adhering to the golden mean "price / quality" and choosing a tool not for its cost, but one that will be convenient for you to use.

Novice carpenters often have a question: do you need such power tools in the workshop as milling machine, jointer, thickness gauge, circular electric saws and at what stage they need to be purchased and what to be guided by when buying, except for the price.

Archimed FORUMHOUSE User

I thought about equipping my workshop. I need to process boards for wall cladding, and in the future I plan to make furniture. With good hand tool everything is clear, but there are a lot of questions about the use of electric, and you need to “get into the budget”. I need expert advice on what to buy, what I need in the future. So far my rating is:

  • drill;
  • screwdriver;
  • grinder;
  • jigsaw;
  • electric planer;
  • circular saw;
  • manual frezer;
  • thicknesser machine.

Topic created archimed, provoked a wide response. Many professional craftsmen offered their options for completing the workshop.

Sitnikoff FORUMHOUSE User

When I first got into carpentry, I had to make simple workbench, and I only had: a bow saw, a drill, an old planer, a few chisels, Forstner drills and a shoe knife. Everything. But I made a workbench. Now, after 10 years of carpentry, my rating of the best tools is as follows:

  • Milling table with milling cutter;
  • Manual frezer;
  • Belt and eccentric grinder;
  • Miter saw;
  • Table circular saw;
  • Several electric planes;
  • Electric jigsaw, electric drills and screwdrivers;
  • Dust removal system;
  • Grinder;
  • Compressor for a carpentry workshop with a spray gun;
  • Planer machine.

This is not the whole list of power tools. Plus, I had to pick up a lot of hand tools.

Moreover, Sitnikoff does not plan to stop there and is thinking of acquiring:

  • jointer;
  • band saw;
  • drilling machine;
  • wood lathe;
  • Install a chip removal and air ventilation system.

Summarizing

Answering the question asked Archimed-m, we can say that a possible set of tools for a furniture maker is directly proportional to his budget, the planned volume and complexity of work, and, importantly, the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe workshop. After all, the entire tool will have to be placed somewhere - so that it is convenient to use, and access to it is safe, not limited or difficult.

You can make furniture, working in a limited area, in an apartment, on a balcony, in a corridor. But any master sooner or later comes to the need to build his own workshop. Moreover, a well-planned workshop, with communications connected, well insulated, in which you can work all year round, regardless of weather and daylight hours.

To have a guide to the future and understand what you need to equip a furniture workshop "for growth", you can use the following list. It:

  • Stationary circular saw and milling machine;
  • Miter saw;
  • Circular plunge-cut saw with guide rail;
  • Band-saw;
  • Thicknessing machine;
  • Stationary jointer.

On the last two machines, attention should be focused, because. sometimes novice carpenters get confused about their purpose.

With a jointer, the knife shaft is located in the table, i.e. below, so this machine sets a flat plane - the "base". The jointer, unlike the planer, does not make the workpiece of the same thickness.

At the thickness gauge, the knife is located on top, so this machine makes a plane parallel to the “base”. If you run a workpiece with a “screw” or “hump” into the thickness gauge, then at the output we will get a planed curved workpiece.

Therefore, first we set the workpiece to a plane (we make a “base”), removing the “screw” or “saber” with a jointer, then we plan the workpiece to a given thickness with a thickness gauge.

Conclusion: to acquire expensive, complex, professional tool it is necessary not "in reserve", but only by moving to a new stage of his development as a master. In other words, you buy this or that tool only when you realize that your carpentry workshop is already a small workshop and you cannot make any furniture parts without it.

When working with power tools and machines, safety precautions must be observed. Namely: put on goggles and thick clothes, fasten your sleeves, put your hair under your headgear for reliability. In the carpentry workshop, in a conspicuous place, there must be a first aid kit.

And what should be the workplace of a cabinet maker.

Works on suburban area there is always plenty, but without the appropriate tool, it will not be easy to complete it. A wide range of equipment and accessories is available for sale. various works. What to take and what not to spend money on? It is no secret that many expensive installations are not really needed or have much cheaper counterparts. The answer to the question of what tools for home and garden can be useful to you, you will find below.

List of summer resident's works

To find out what tools the average summer resident needs, you need to understand what exactly he plans to do on the site. All works are divided into two groups:

  1. Regular ones like watering, weeding beds, mowing lawns and so on.
  2. Irregular - arrangement of beds and irrigation systems, slides, arches, construction country houses, other.

Considering the fact that a dacha is a garden, a vegetable garden and a house itself, the list of works is impressive. The main categories of tools that may be required for their implementation are:

  • electrical installation;
  • plumbing;
  • construction;
  • horticultural;
  • carpentry;
  • metalwork.

The hand tool needed by the summer resident: we make up the minimum set

Of course, you can buy a ready-made garden tool kit, but it is difficult to guarantee that it will have everything you need. Therefore, let's look at all the accessories that are needed to perform basic work on the site and in the house:


We named the most the right tools for giving manual type. Do you want to buy something extra? You can do this, but the basis must be required.

Electric tool - the main friend and assistant of the summer resident

What electric tools are needed in the country? Here, too, you can make a separate list. It will include:

  1. Impact drill, thanks to which you can drill holes of any diameter without extra effort. Brick, concrete, wood, metal - the base can be anything. For the same purpose, an electric hammer drill is used.
  2. corner Grinder(or grinder) with cutting discs for different materials that will expand its functionality.
  3. Electric screwdriver - it is much easier to work with it than with a similar manual installation.
  4. An electric planer with a nozzle is indispensable in woodworking.
  5. Electric jigsaw - allows you to make cuts, cuts, cuts in a bar, cut flat lumber
  6. Chain mini electric saw.
  7. If you plan to do metal work often, buy welding machine, but keep in mind that it gives a very large load on the network.
  8. Electrical .

An electric tool is more expensive than a manual one, but it also has a much higher performance.

Amateur or professional class: what to choose

What tools a man needs to give, we figured out. The question arises as follows: what class of equipment is better - amateur or professional. It is clear that the professional tool is more powerful and productive, but it also costs much more. Is the cost of buying it justified?

The amateur tool is more versatile and less productive. When choosing a drill, consider whether you need to drill the maximum number of holes per hour or whether such expenses for the purchase of professional equipment are simply not practical. As for the brand, the devices of world famous brands are more expensive than less popular ones. The domestic tool does an excellent job with the tasks and has more low cost, therefore, with a limited budget, it makes sense to pay attention to Russian-made products.
