I had a few different careers in my life. To name a few... as an Jaguar automotive tech, building homes, concrete work, tile installer, handyman and now an electrician. I invested alot of money in different tools thru the years between $20k-$30k worth.
I'm not friends with none of my neighbors but it seems like the only time they want to talk to me is when they need something. It gets kind of bad in the summer when I'm working in the garage on projects. When I have my garage door open it seems like it is an invite for everyone to walk in to bother me and to see what I have inside. I don't mind helping out friends or borrowing out small tools. I just getting tired of loaning out some of my expensive tools like my $1200 mk diamond tile saw or my $800 miter saw. Then they keep the tools for a long time. Sometimes after a month I have to knock on there door and ask for the tools back.
So I decided to get a home depot tool rental price list and rent my tools out for half the price what Home Depot rents them for. Last night another neighbor knocked on my door and wanted to borrow my air compressor and nail guns. I told him about the daily rental fees and he got pissed because he thought it was unfair since he borrowed the same tools from me a year ago for free.
