What to bring
Bring all the personal tools you may want to use. We suggest a hammer, tool belt or nail pouch, measuring tape, utility knife, pencil, and work gloves for starters. The affiliate has all the power tools needed. If you have a personal hard hat and safety glasses that you use, bring them. Please mark your tools for identification.
Bring old clothes to work in and sturdy shoes. The weather can always change so bring layers. Be sure to have sunscreen, a hat, and water bottle. You may want to bring lawn chairs to take to the site for lunch time and breaks.
