This tool box has a slightly deeper top section that can fit a cordless drill and other bigger tools. The additional three sliding drawers can make room to accommodate screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, nails and screws, or whatever you’re looking to store. This is a very well made toolbox that is larger than it looks and can hold a ton of tools. I was surprised by how much it could hold and still be portable, though heavy, when full. The drawers slide really well and don’t sag at all when filled up with hammers, wrenches and more. It has a heavy duty handle on the top that makes the toolbox portable for the jobs at hand.

If the man in your life is interested in photography like mine is, a LightScoop Deluxe should definitely be on your shopping list! The Lightscoop is a smart low-tech device that creates soft, flattering light by redirecting your camera’s built-in flash to a ceiling or wall. It attaches right onto your regular flash and gets rid of your red eye, blurry movements, hot spots, and other problems typically associated with your harsh built in flash. I recently got to try out the Lightscoop Deluxe and it has earned a permanent spot in my camera bag. The Lightscoop Deluxe and other models can be found here. It retails for $36.95.
