Lauren’s Shelves…

…and blinds, and mirrors, and curtain rods. I have been hanging things for my friend Lauren for five years. The reasons are because I love my drill, she gives me wine and food, and I am the only person she trusts not to destroy her wall. She a particular gal and likes a shelf to be level.
Everytime I hang things for various friends I always forget to bring one essential tool. Traveling in NYC is too tough with a full toolbox, so I just put a few items in a bag. I’m using this post to store a list for future reference.

  1. tape measure
  2. drill w/ spare battery
  3. awl
  4. bits
  5. screwdriving bits
  6. screwdriver
  7. box of matching screws and sleeves
  8. hammer
  9. level
  10. box cutter
  11. vice grips
  12. pencil and pen (the inside of a pen is good for marking screw spots through small holes)
  13. stud finder
  14. condoms
