20 PC CARPENTERS TOOL KIT FOR KID

Tool kit for kids - Lowes 20 pc tool kit

(Note:  these are not tools we sell.  These are less expensive tools I bought for the grandkids.   For really top quality tools look here.) 

Item#:314795

Model#:539661

$9.98

Ages 7 – 12

1. Harder than heck to open.  Plastic hard to cut.  Reach though the hat hole from the back and pull the back off.
2. Little gloves.
3. Little tool belt.  Not sure it would fit 12 year olds.
4. Flimsy, plastic T square and ruler.  Marks are not inked so very hard to read.  Not accurate.  Ruler has extra plastic on both ends.  Worse than useless.
5. Little hammer where the head is pinned in place.  Do not like this at all.
6. Flimsy tape measure with really rough recoil.
7. 3 oblong pencils and sharpener to sharpen oblong pencils.  Sharpener is pretty clever.
8. 1 stubby, reversible screwdriver with Phillips and straight ends.
9. 2 little plastic clamps. Pretty weak.  Swivel ends keeping flopping into the jaws and interfering with closing.
10. Hard hat.
11. Halloween costume quality or less.
12. Not much adjustment.  It will be uncomfortable to wear.
13. Rainbow suspenders are pretty cool.
14. 2 flimsy carabineer clamps with springs that are too strong.
