I was painting my whole house wrong for years and didn't know it

I was cutting in a ceiling line in my bedroom last week (you know, with a brush) and my arm was killing me after ten minutes. My friend saw me and just said, 'why don't you use a small roller for that?' I had no idea you could get a mini roller for trim work. I bought a 4-inch one for six bucks and it changed the game. Has anyone else got a simple tool tip that saved them a ton of pain?

Found out about stubby screwdrivers for tight spots last year. Total lifesaver for basic home stuff.

Seriously, a six dollar roller is that life-changing?

You ever try using a regular screwdriver in a tight corner and just give up halfway through? Those stubby ones save so much time and frustration. I picked up a set for like ten bucks and it made fixing my door hinges way easier. Small tools can really make a difference.
