Arrow Women Who Love Tools
Women don't typically love (live?) to use tools like some of the guys I run with, but it's a rare treat when you find one that will enjoy using them and productively use them to accomplish various tasks.

Discuss "Women Who Love Tools here.
Read the article.

Not my wife. She loves that I LOVE tools. Although to be fair, she does have a small toolkit under the sink that she uses for screwdrivers and the hammer every now and then. But let's put it this way - if I am running into Home Depot for something, she'd rather stay in the car or walk next door to the Kohls...

My wife likes Home Depot or Lowes when we're shopping for accessories, picking out tile, etc. If I'm just in the middle of a project - no interest whatsoever. She did recently enjoy using the cordless drill, however as it saved her tons of time installing closet shelving.

My wife knows how to use a lot of different tools but leaves it up to me most of the time to do the fixing. I am convinced that she plays dumb so she does not have to fix things sometimes!

I would consider my wife to be a tool girl! She is actually pretty handy around the house. I wonder if she has learned since sometimes I am not very motivated about working at my own house after working all the time at other peoples houses building and fixing things....

It doesn't look like THIS does it?

My wife loves fixing things. Unlike most women she loves her screwdriver much more than her cellphone. (Can I get in trouble for saying that?)
