How rental ‘libraries of things’ have become the new way to save money

I should start my own rental thing. I tend to buy what I need for DIY projects and I'm on the build up of tools phase. I can pretty much build my own house if I wanted, or fix anything in my car. So I got a number of toys just catching dust most of the time. But toys are fun.
"Honey there's no way I'm letting you pay $200 for that bookshelf I could build myself, once I buy $150 in materials and $700 in tools"
People who own tools tend to build more then one thing.
That's true, but there's plenty of people like myself who buy heaps of tools with the intention of building all the things but just never get around to it.
