Auto part stores often will lend both weird and specialized tools, and relatively basic ones, too.
Usually the way it works is you "buy" the tool and then "return" it.

It’s a lending program, for free. With a deposit for full value so it becomes a purchase if you don’t return it in time. Same structure but the phrasing matters.
Cool idea.
You'd be a silly goose to rent it and then never return it, however, as the rental tools have been used to heck and back.
