Frequency of use directly impacts tool ROI…
How much does the tool cost?
The answer to this question may not have as much to do with the price you pay for the tool as it does with how quickly you can get the tool to pay for itself and become a profitable company asset for the remainder of its lifespan. Notice I do not say “whether” you can

Being a full time union carpenter as well as owning a deck building company on the side, completion time is always at the fore front of my mind when taking on projects. my rode hard and put away clean used airless paint sprayer, deck staining as been dramatically and very good side income. But my favorite tool is my senco stand-up collated screw gun to screw deck boards down, no more sore back and knees and cuts the time to about 1/3.
Thanks for sharing that, Justin. Its great to hear when others have a thoughtful approach to tools as resources. Cheers!
