Practical Ideas For Fathers Day

Practical Ideas For Fathers Day

By:




Im all for original thought, but sometimes theres just no point. Like Luke and Vader, Harry and Voldemort, Bella and Edward, dads, tools and Fathers Day are connected by some unknown force and its best to just go with the flow.

1. Power Tools
The daddy of tools. Life rarely provides the opportunity to sink 100 nails into wood at high speed, so when it comes up, your old man deserves to be armed and ready.

2. Screwdriver Set
From ergonomic, cushion grip handles to sets that come complete with their own luxury carry-case and 100 pieces or more, the perfect screwdriver set has more trimmings than a Fathers Day dinner. It costs more too.

3. BBQ Grilling Set
Let your old dad carry the mantle in style by suiting and booting him with one of the numerous sets available. Hes going to hog the BBQ anyway so he might as well look as though he means business.

4. Tape Measure
If you were thinking that you couldnt beef up a bog standard tape measure, youd be wrong. Dads have managed it. Some measures dont even use tape but come with lasers and do all the measuring digitally. Now he can get the size wrong to three decimal places.

5. Chisel
Lord knows who exactly is doing all this chiselling, but for some bizarre reason dads still like to keep one handy, and they come in all sorts of colours and sizes too.

6. Swiss Army Knife
Your old man probably had a Swiss Army Knife at Boy Scouts in a time before kids began waving them at each other outside Lidl. An oldie but a goldie.

7. Lawn Tools
Its not certain at what age dads become obsessed by lawn quality but hell appreciate your quiet acceptance and a brand new strimmer or a high tech mower all the same.

8. Sledgehammer
Why simply throw something away or take it to the tip when you can smash it to smithereens barbarian-style first? Its the dad way.

9. Spirit Level
If your dads DIY skills are top notch then this is a great Fathers Day gift. On the other hand, if your dad is more of a DIY disaster, all this will do is show him in no uncertain terms that the mirror he just spent the last hour hanging is in fact wonky. Tough call.

10. Toolbox
A mans toolbox is like the One Ring; it contains the source of all his power and the ability to bring destruction raining down upon your home. Hes probably also memorised its contents, so whatever you do dont touch it.
