650 Watt Megaphone with Safety Siren
Perfect for speaking at a rally, large gathering, or annoying your neighbors without leaving your own yard, this powerful megaphone and safety siren will definitely make sure you get your point across. Make yourself audible up to a half-mile from your location, and let everybody know you picked up your megaphone at Harbor Freight. A handheld microphone helps prevent the howl of feedback, while the shoulder strap keeps things portable. If you think a half-mile is a little more range than you need, consider the smaller version, also available at Harbor Freight. A megaphone can have more practical applications. Some parents like to include a megaphone with their family safety kit, so that they can make sure their children hear any orders and can find them in the confusion or literal smoke of an emergency.

Sure, you could clean out your garage, but why bother when you can simply bring your garage along in your trunk? This portable garage is actually a pop-up canopy tent designed to be large enough to cover the average car or compact truck. Although "portable garage" is probably overselling it, if you've ever worked on a car when exposed to wind, rain or snow, then you'll know that this canopy is actually a fantastic portable shelter that can prevent a needed repair from being a miserable experience. It's definitely worth checking out if you work on your car outdoors. Photo: Courtesy of Harbor FreightElectric Meat Grinder
Okay, we admit it: not many people think "kitchen" or "gourmet" when they think of Harbor Freight. But it's time to turn that assumption around, because your local Harbor Freight (and harborfreight.com) carries an array of culinary devices that can help take your cooking up to the next level. This powerful electric meat grinder will help you prepare the meat for burgers, sausage, meatloaf and more. It also comes with three stuffing tube attachments for sausage-making, and those homemade sausages are sure to make you a grilling hero at your next barbecue.

A compass or divider is occasionally useful on a job site, but they're far more frequently used on the drafting table. At twelve inches, this one is so large that even the most dedicated draftsman will only break it out from time to time. It's a surprising item to find at Harbor Freight, but it's good to know it's there if you need it! If you're curious to see how to use a compass on a job site, check out this guide on scribing.

Is it surprising to find a tool at Harbor Freight? No, but this angle finder made the list because so few DIYers know that this device even exists. Sure, squares have pitch finders built onto them, but the vast majority of people with a square on their tool belt don't know how to make use of them. With its magnetic base, this angle finder attaches directly to metal squares, and can be screwed in place if your square isn't metal. Once in place, it immediately (and constantly) displays the angle that it's held at, from 0° to 90°. It also includes a conversion chart for determining pitch. And if you'd rather do it the old school way, here's how! Photo: Courtesy of Harbor FreightCarabiner Multi-Tool Knife
Falling into the "amazingly useful" category, this is a carabiner that transforms into a utility knife and multi-tool. It's kind of like the Optimus Prime of carabiners. Along with a safety lock and one-touch blade release, this useful tool also has a built-in flat head and Philips head, instantly earning it a spot in the pantheon of most useful pocket multi-tools.

Sure, you can pick up a saw at Harbor Freight. But do you want a saw…. Or do you want a saw mill?

Able to handle logs or flat stock up to 20 inches across, this massive machine comes equipped with a powerful 301cc engine, so you can work fast and efficiently. Of course, picking up a saw mill means that you'll likely need to learn about working with rough-sawn lumber, but what DIYer can pass up a chance to pick up a few more skills?
