I am too fussy.....so what I do is if someone wants to use my tiller for example...(last year neighbor) I tilled the soil for him..glad to do it..but I am not loaning anything anymore.
Where I work, most everyone has their own tools, but I have many specialty tools you don't find every day that they need to borrow. I keep several pages of a legal pad with each person's name on it, and write down the tool they borrow. If they borrow the same tool twice, the third time they have to buy one of their own.
