Long weekends tend to be the time for DIY projects, and luckily, you don't have to wait for Labor Day to seek out excellent deals on the tools you might need. Milwaukee tools are a solid choice—they’re known for having long-lasting batteries and being durable. Home Depot has some worthwhile deals on Milwaukee tools right now; they can help you build your DIY tool set while keeping your budget under control.

Milwaukee cordless electric stapler

You can use a cordless electric stapler for anything from upholstery to making trellises for your garden. An electric stapler can save your hands if you have a lot of stapling to do because it doesn’t require as much grip strength to operate.

The Milwaukee 12-volt cordless electric stapler is now $119, 65% off its regular price. It comes with two 2-amp-hour batteries and a charger. This is a good tool for beginner DIY upholstery projects or for securing weather stripping or attaching underlayment for carpeting.

An oscillating multitool can be used for cutting a variety of materials including wood, metal, PVC, plaster, and drywall. With an attachment, you can also convert it to a sander for finishing projects. The Milwaukee 12-volt oscillating multitool is on sale for $189, 58% off its typical price. It comes with two 12-volt, 2-amp-hour batteries, a charger, a sanding attachment, a multimaterial blade, and five sanding pads.

This smaller version of an oscillating multitool can be used for cutting drywall to make a repair or for other home maintenance chores. I like to use the smaller oscillating multitool for getting paint marks off of cabinet hardware and for making flush-cuts on dowel joints for furniture.

Milwaukee cutoff tool

A cutoff tool can be used for DIY projects like trimming off a rusted-out bolt or trimming PVC drain parts to fit for a DIY plumbing project. Make sure to wear a face shield when you’re operating a cutoff tool to avoid injury in the event that the cutting disc shatters or the material you’re cutting splinters. The Milwaukee 12-volt cutoff tool is on sale for $189, 57% off its usual price. It comes with two 2-amp-hour batteries and a charger.

This is a good tool for small projects where you need to cut metal, PVC, or tile. Because of its smaller size, it can be a little easier to use this tool in tight spaces like under a sink. A cut-off tool can be deceptively powerful and because of its small size, slipping and cutting nearby objects is a hazard.

Milwaukee cordless electric ratchet

An electric ratchet can give you torque without needing space to turn your wrench. It can be handy working on cars or doing your own maintenance on appliances, like taking the cover off of a vent in an awkward spot. The Milwaukee 12-volt cordless electric ⅜-inch ratchet is now $189, 59% off its regular price. It comes with two 2-amp-hour batteries and a charger.

The trigger on this tool will change the amount of force you’re applying depending on how hard you squeeze it; it can get up to about 35 foot-pounds of torque. Because it can be hard to judge how hard an electric ratchet is turning a nut, if your hardware is rusted or if you’re working with more delicate materials like porcelain, you should use a hand wrench at the beginning and end to avoid causing damage.
