These Firm Grip gloves can really come in handy. See what I did there? Gotta make a few Dad Jokes for Father’s Day right?? Anyway, there are so many uses for these gloves and they also come in a variety of sizes. They’re durable and also have touchscreen capability so Dad won’t have to take his gloves off before he takes your call.
3. Dewalt Stapler
This stapler takes a variety of staple sizes as well as 18 gauge brad nails up to ⅝ inch. Dad’s love a tool that can do more than one thing.

This tool bag is made of strong synthetic fabric, has a metal frame to hold its structure, and has plenty of pockets to keep everything organized so Dad will know exactly where he put his screwdriver.
5. Dewalt Medium and Large Clamp Set
You can never have enough clamps! This set of trigger clamps has 2 medium clamps and 2 large clamps and they all have removable jaw pads so the workpiece will stay protected. Dad will be so happy next time he needs a few extra to hold his project together.

1. Milwaukee 7 Amp Corded Angle Grinder
This angle grinder is great for quick material removal and also has a multi-port exhaust to help prevent burn up. Just don’t let Dad forget his eye protection!

Good lighting is so important, this one has a hook and also has a pivoting head so you can get it to shine at exactly the right angle.
3. DeWalt Bluetooth Speaker
Perfect for Dad to rock out on a worksite and the bluetooth connects up to 100 feet away. So he won’t have to worry about losing connection and crackling sound when he moves around.

2. Milwaukee 18V Sander
Every DIY Dad needs a good sander. This orbital sander has a 5 inch pad and variable speeds so he can adjust to each part of his project. It also has a dust canister and filter to avoid a huge dusty mess.
3. Kreg Pocket Hole Jig Master System
This joinery master system will allow Dad to work with a bench top or portable base and he’ll be able to consistently repeat hole spacing for accurate placement every time. This is something I use in almost all of my projects.
4. Folding Portable Workbench
There are endless uses for an additional surface, especially one that is portable. Dad can set this up wherever he needs, it’s lightweight for easy transport but still sturdy enough to provide good stability, the metal legs can support up to 1,000 pounds!
5. Ryobi 18V Cordless Compound Miter Saw
You will certainly be the MVP of Father’s Day with this small but powerful miter saw. You’ll get up to 900 cuts on one charge, and there are so many uses for a portable miter saw; projects in the backyard, a room in the house that’s not close to the shop, the list goes on. Save Dad the extra trips to his workshop and help him bring his saw to his workspace.
It’s not too late!
So if you’re like me and counting on some fast shipping or an easy trip to the store for a quick win I hope you found something on this list that will show the dad’s in your life how much you appreciate them. You might even be inspired to get out there and make something together.
