Hammer: 16oz Steel OR 10 oz titanium
Do you need a steel or titanium hammer? That's easy. How often do you use a hammer? Once or twice a month or 3-5 times weekly?
If you rarely use a hammer, then go for a good quality steel hammer (16 oz); save the bucks. But if you find yourself hammering on a regular basis, spring for the titanium, which costs about 4 times as much.
A 10 oz titanium hammer has the same driving power as a 16 oz steel hammer! Less weight= less fatigue.
A titanium is proven to deliver less vibration, less recoil and less shock to the arm. Your body will thank you later for using a titanium hammer now.

What are Gorilla Gloves?
One day my mechanic buddy Chuck from Jersey told me I had to get some "Gorilla Gloves". We used to be partners in an auto repair shop, so I trust his judgement.
I immediately ordered a pair. Love them! Highly recommend!
So what are they, exactly?
Well, they look like this, and they're:
- Kinda like latex gloves, but they breathe and have a textured gripping surface.
- Kinda like work gloves, but are so thin and supple you can pick up a dime.
So they are a great alternative to heavy work gloves for a job requiring good dexterity but you want some protection from dirt, grease, minor cuts and scrapes.
I keep a pair of these in my back pocket and use them almost daily.
Try Gorilla Gloves, you'll love them too...

Reciprocating saw (Sawzall-type)- corded
Gotta have a Sawzall!
Although we also recommend a cordless recipro saw on our Ryobi Tool page, we think every serious workshop should have a full-powered electric Sawzall.
You can't beat the versatility and power of a corded reciprocating saw when faced with a tough cutting job!
Watch a sawzall in action in the video below.
Note: We actually have an older model (Makita JR3000VT); the saw featured below is the newer, equivalent model.
