Comment on A job's a job
severalkittens@ani.social 15 hours agoI’ve done the tool “borrow” quite a bit with Amazon because fuck em. If I need a specific tool for a job on my car or something that I’ll only use once. The Amazon returns also never check condition so it’s a bit easier

I have heard that some libraries actually rent out power tools. And other types of tools.
I would guess that’s more common in mid sized to larger cities. But it’s also not advertised very well so you have to ask your local library and check.
Ive heard some libraries rent out all sorts of things like Gardening tools. Even musical instruments. Sewing machines. Dvd players. Cassette players. VHS players. Tvs ?
I should check it my local one has a power washer cause I have one job I need one for and I could just buy one and return it a week later.
Or. Pay $30 a day to rent from a hardware store.
Or if the library has one, that would make things a lot easier.
