I mistakenly bought very professional tools from Ryobi, they won't work for my beginner-level projects. What do I need in the first place?

For beginner projects, choose versatile and functional tools. The Ryobi One+ Drill/Driver is a staple for drilling and driving screws. Choose a basic 18V Ryobi One+ model to share batteries with future tools.

Adding a Ryobi One+ Circular Saw lets you cut lumber precisely for furniture or shelving. A Ryobi One+ Sander with a random orbit smooths surfaces well for painting or finishing.

In addition to power tools, tape measures, utility knives, and levels are essential for accurate measurements, material cutting, and straight installations. A basic screwdriver set complements the drill/driver for tight spaces or odd jobs.

With Ryobi One+'s battery interchangeability, you can expand your toolkit without buying multiple batteries. Starting with a Ryobi One+ Starter Kit, which includes a drill/driver, secondary tool, battery, and charger, is affordable.

Research the tools needed for your project to customize your toolkit. This basic toolkit lets you tackle a variety of beginner-friendly DIY projects and allows for Ryobi ecosystem expansion.
