If you have not used the tool library yet, I strongly recommend it — they have all sorts of things that you only need infrequently, and rentals are pretty inexpensive

The tool library has items such as power and hand tools (think drills, jigsaws, sanders), garden and yard supplies (lawn mowers, wheelbarrows, pressure washers, etc), “dealy-bobs” like sewing machines, juicers, and bike repair stands, and also offers repair guides, tool demos, and tool manuals for members.
