It's also often cheaper to treat many durable items as disposable. i.e. buy a power washer each-ish time you need it compared to hiring somebody.

- ty6853 1y agoThat's exactly what I did when I built my house. $6k in labor for some part of the project vs $300 tools from harbor freight, who gives a fuck if the tool only lasts a few hours, I don't have time to sell it nor place to store it.
- HeyLaughingBoy 1y agoIt's mainly this, and the comfort level with tools. My riding mower is 19 years old. It's approaching Ship of Theseus levels at this point, but since the Kawasaki motor shows no signs of giving up the ghost, I'm hard pressed to spend the $2k+ it would take to replace it. If it costs me $75 each year in replacement parts, I could have it for another 10 years.
