For hand tools, I like to give them a quick wipe-down after each use. A little WD-40 on the moving parts can help prevent rust and keep them working smoothly. For power tools, I make sure to follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule. This usually involves cleaning, lubricating, and replacing worn parts. 🤩✨👌
