I think some of the auto parts stores will let you use equipment for free...though I don't know if you are required to buy something from them, or if they lend out something as small as a socket set.

"Nature has constituted utility to man the standard and test of virtue. Men living in different countries, under different circumstances, different habits and regimens, may have different utilities; the same act, therefore, may be useful and consequently virtuous in one country which is injurious and vicious in another differently circumstanced" - Thomas Jefferson, moral relativist
