You don't say where your apartment is but in most places you can hire tools, just like the UK.

Either take a drill with you or buy one. You will need it again and again :?

I bought a spanish 350-watt drill in AlCampo for ~20euro, along with the Black-and-Decker drillbit set. Add a spirit level, and you have all you need for most DIY jobs.

Don't buy a black-and-Decker drill, which though a familiar brand, is vastly overpriced in Tenerife.

Ha! I can beet that. I bought a Spanish unbranded corded 500 watt drill and bit set from Carifore (Tenerife) last year for €8 (£5). Its done me proud over the year and is still in perfect working order!

if you got your own place you will always need tools for something,there is only one safe way to make sure the pics are not going to fall down and that is not with any glue,drills are cheap enough,i have used ours loads of times and i thought when i bought it i would not really have much use of it,women like pics,shelf,pots everwhere :lol:
