Borrow Instead of Buying.
Whether you're a veteran DIYer or thinking about getting started on your very first project, the St. John's Tool Library is here to help. We are a non-profit tool lending service for people who want to create, make, build, and grow. Your membership gives you access to a broad inventory of equipment - from lawn mowers to power drills, from stud finders to table saws, from gardening shovels to soldering irons - we've got you covered.
The St John’s Tool Library is a not-for-profit community resource.
Hours of Operation:
Tuesdays - 3:00pm - 8:30pm
Saturdays - 9:30am-4:00pm
During open hours call us at: 709-754-8665
