Sorry for your loss. There’s actually not that much friction between my wife and me regarding tools. She has her own set of tools for making things out of pallet wood, though she doesn’t like to run the table saw, so I do that. If she uses any of my tools, I just make sure I get them back later.

Oh good grief. Have men EVER had tools go lost?

Come on, man.

Well, you make a good point. My wifeโ€™s name is Natalie. Sheโ€™s my love of 42 years and counting. I had no problem with her using my tools, but Estwing hand tools are highly regarded, very high quality, expensive, internationally recognized, and their only plant is where we live. So I was a little upset that she treated it so carelessly.

“CRAFTSMAN tools are backed by some of the strongest warranties in the market today. If you have a product that requires repair or replacement under warranty, simply return the product to the original place of purchase for repair or replacement, depending on the warranty coverage outlined below. Or create an account to register your product and view its warranty coverage.”

Well many people can’t return them to their original place of purchase as they no longer exist. the question of if someplace like Lowes will honor a warranty on those tools not purchased from them seems to be ambiguous at best. Maybe yes and maybe no.

Just a hunch but if the bag had been a little more stylish, perhaps with a monogram, it might not have โ€œslipped.โ€

Even better: Have Louis Vuitton manufacture the bag.

That is a funny story!

Fortunately, my husband is handy with tools, heโ€™s just not organized so he misplaces them often.

I solved my dilemma by making my own tool area, with my own set of tools (including power tools and batteries). I wrote โ€œMomโ€ on all my tools so that way I know where my tools are and who is using them ๐Ÿ˜‚.

It sounds like overkill, but I use tools everyday on the farm and it really helps to be able find a tool and use it right away!

PS, before making my own tool space, I tried helping my husband keep track by setting up a nice pegboard with all the tools and bins organized and labeled. It lasted about a month ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I don’t let my wife anywhere near my tools. They are all in it’s place so that I can find what I need when I need it.

Other side of the coin: She won’t allow me anywhere near the laundry room.

Not a bad trade.
