Staff Writer

Alivia covers pneumatic tools, safety equipment, and shop setup for Craftsman Toolkit, with a particular focus on the gear that first-time buyers tend to either underbuy or overspend on. Before joining the team she ran a small custom furniture studio in Portland, where she learned the hard way which compressors actually keep up with a brad nailer all day and which respirators are worth the extra forty dollars. Her favorite reviews are the boring-but-critical ones — hearing protection, work gloves, dust collection — that nobody else wants to write but everyone in a shop ends up wearing every day.
