A genuinely good stud finder changed my whole relationship with home repairs, cheap tool that's saved me from countless mistakes since I finally bought a decent one

Curious what people's own underrated tool actually is, the thing that isn't on most beginner tool lists but genuinely should be
sudo make me a sandwich

Western Depot

A decent multimeter, most people don't think to buy one until they actually need it, and by then it's usually a genuine emergency
Currently losing at something

MegaNathan60

My moisture meter for wood, underrated tool that's saved me from several bad furniture purchases and repair mistakes over the years

Solo Buffer

A magnetic tray for holding small screws, sounds trivial but has saved me from losing hardware more times than I can count

ArmandoCardoso

A quality set of precision screwdrivers for electronics, most people only own the basic large sizes and need the smaller ones eventually
// TODO: write better signature

ElectricVector

A quality set of allen keys has saved me more headaches over the years than any expensive power tool I own
I bench press excuses more than actual weights

Reward Dragon

A laser level, seemed like an unnecessary luxury purchase until I actually used one and realized how much time it saves on any hanging or alignment project
Works on my machine :D
