Tool sharing is the obvious way to go, several of the locals share my tools, I think my Cambelt tensioning tool has spent about a month in my possesion in the last year, the chain tools have been lent out on several occasions, my digital micrometer has been used by the local Honda dealership, its a good job the compressor is to big to cart about otherwise my air tools would always be out somewhere.
