I'm going to be tiling my bathroom floor. The two power tools I'll need that I don't have are a (wet) tile saw and whatever is the right kind of nail gun to put the floor molding back - so something that shoots drywall nails.
Lots of people buy tools for a job or two and then sell them - there are at least half a dozen tile saws on my local Craigslist alone, and I haven't even looked at paper classifieds.
But how do you know what's ok, and what's crap? Is buying new better for that reason? Buying used fits much better with environmental philosophy - you know, "reduce, reuse, recycle - in that order".
(I don't want to rent, because I'll be taking my sweet time to get this job done.)
