Just realized the local 'tool library' in my town actually works

I was skeptical about borrowing a power washer from a community shed, thinking it would be broken or a hassle, but the one in Springfield is organized and the tools are maintained. After using it to clean my deck last weekend, I saved about $150 versus a rental. Has anyone else had a good or bad experience with a community tool share program?

Read a news piece last year about one in Portland that got a big grant to expand. Sounded like it was really taking off there.

@angela_allen53 Yeah, right until it rains for 300 days straight. Then we'll see how "taking off" it is.
