Power Tools Gift Ideas

24 ideas from the power tools area of The Woodshop. Nothing is sold here — pick anything up and it opens a pre-filled search at the retailer.

Find out one thing first: which battery they use. Cordless tools tie a person to one battery system, and a tool from another system means a second charger. If they own no cordless tools, the cordless drill/driver is the first one to give. The random-orbit sander saves hours of hand sanding. The jigsaw cuts curves. An oscillating multi-tool reaches awkward cuts in tight spots, and a rotary tool kit handles small detail work. A bench vise needs no battery at all, just a sturdy bench to mount on.
