  • Can you recommend any good, comprehensive books that cover the basics of DIY home maintenance projects?

    I'm looking for an easy-to-use guide that will help me troubleshoot and fix basic carpentry, electrical and plumbing repairs and issues around the house. There must be lots of people that don't consider themselves handymen (or women), that have trouble solving problems like leaky faucets, patching holes in the wall, or replacing broken floor tiles.

    Which books have you found really useful?

I’ve had this book on my wishlist for a while. Now that I’m a homeowner, I’m getting it!

Cool tools really work.

A cool tool can be any book, gadget, software, video, map, hardware, material, or website that is tried and true. All reviews on this site are written by readers who have actually used the tool and others like it. Items can be either old or new as long as they are wonderful. We post things we like and ignore the rest. Suggestions for tools much better than what is recommended here are always wanted.

Tell us what you love.
