Who Runs Tool and Torque?
Kyle Homan started Tool and Torque because most power tool content online falls into one of two traps: it’s either recycled manufacturer copy, or it’s written by someone who has never held the tool.
Kyle is a hands-on content creator with direct testing experience across drills, saws, sanders, impact drivers, and more. Every article on this site – whether it’s a review, a buying guide, or a step-by-step tutorial – is written from time actually spent with the tools being covered.
The site exists for one reason: to give you a straight answer on whether a tool is worth your money and whether it can handle your job.
What You’ll Find on Tool and Torque?
Tool and Torque publishes three types of content:
Tool Reviews – Single-tool breakdowns covering real-world performance, build quality, battery life, and value. Reviews include what works, what doesn’t, and who the tool is actually built for.
Buying Guides – Category-level comparisons that help you find the right tool for your specific use case and budget. No padding. No filler. Just the options that matter and why.
How-To Guides – Step-by-step tutorials for common power tool tasks. Written for people who want to get the job done correctly, not just get it done fast.
How Tool and Torque Makes Money?
Tool and Torque is transparent about how the site is funded.
This site participates in the Amazon Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program that pays a small commission when you purchase through links on this site – at no extra cost to you. The site also displays ads through Google AdSense.
These arrangements do not influence which tools get recommended or how they are reviewed. If a tool underperforms in testing, that finding goes in the article regardless of where it’s sold or who makes it.
Affiliate links are used only for tools that are genuinely recommended based on testing. You will never see a tool pushed here just because it pays a higher commission.
The Standard Every Article is Held To
Every piece of content on Tool and Torque is measured against three questions:
- Does it answer the reader’s actual question directly?
- Is every claim backed by firsthand experience or a named source?
- Would Kyle buy or recommend this tool to a friend?
If the answer to any of those is no, the article doesn’t go up.
