KIDENEI Leather Tool Kit Review: Right for Our Shop?
We’ve tested plenty of starter leather kits, and the KIDENEI 66 Pcs Leather Working Kit walks a confident line between “hobby-ready” and “shop-curious.” Right out of the toolbox, the essentials are there: stamping tools for quick texture, a cutting setup that feels nimble for small straps and patches, and a solid little hammer that invites practice without demanding perfection. We especially like having snaps and waxed thread in the same kit—less scavenger-hunting, more making. The ruler and needles round out the basics, while the punching and stitching tools help us move from rough prototypes to cleaner seams. It’s not a replacement for our premium favorites, but it’s a capable all-in-one that earns bench space.
BLACK+DECKER 20V Drill/Driver Kit Review: Our Shop?
We’ve tested plenty of starter tool sets, but the beyond by BLACK+DECKER Home Tool Kit with 20V MAX Drill/Driver, 83-Piece (BDPK70284C1AEV) feels like it was built for real-life fixes, not just a pretty box. The drill/driver is the headline: light in the hand, quick to grab, and capable enough for everything from tightening cabinet hinges to sinking screws into stud-grade lumber. What surprised us most was the “everything’s here” factor—bits, fasteners, and hand tools that make small projects feel doable without a second trip to the hardware store. It’s not a pro contractor loadout, but for our shelves, switches, and weekend builds, it earns its spot.
