<P> Harry Turner (Blake Clark)--Owner of "Harry's Hardware", where Tim spent a great deal of his time (and money) and in which Al eventually became part owner . He is married--not - so - happily--to Delores (Shirley Prestia), and the couple bad - mouths one another behind their respective backs on every occasion (But Dolores rarely follows this rule). Also has four sons, one Dennis (David DeLuise), with whom he has a somewhat rocky relationship . In one episode Harry told Tim that he had gotten a vasectomy . In another episode it is mentioned he served in the United States Marine Corps in the Vietnam War . </P> <P> Benny Baroni (Jimmy Labriola)--One of Tim's buddies who hangs out at the hardware store . Benny is a bit of a slacker and notoriously known as a freeloader--his trademark being drinking coffee and eating donuts . Benny has not had a job in years, mainly because he doesn't like to work . He makes money by gambling and betting on horse races . On one episode ("A House Divided", Season 4.18) While the "Tool Time" crew is fixing up Benny's aunt's house, the structure is blown up due to Benny's negligence and is not Tim's fault; furthermore when Tim and his family are moving furniture back into the twice repaired Benny's aunt house, Benny, rather than helping out, lies back on a lawn chair to watch the others do the work . He is also known for being inconsiderate of others; at one point, he even ate at a soup kitchen regularly to avoid paying for meals . One episode ("The Look", Season 5.07) Tim was selling season Pistons tickets (Tim had 2 tickets for each game and each pair cost $100) and Benny not able or willing to buy any of the tickets kept offering to go to the games with the people who were buying them, even people he didn't even know, so he could go to the games without paying for a ticket . Ironically in a rare instance of performing earnest work, Benny once appeared on an episode of Tool Time for "Tim and Al's Fantasy Kitchen", where he was shown cutting meat inside a walk - in freezer . </P> <Ul> <Li> Karen (Betsy Randle)--feminist friend of Jill who is very obnoxious towards Tim, often helping Jill mock and discourage Tim .

Emmet Walsh)--Jill's father, died in his sleep from a heart attack in Season 6 . He had a long career in the Army and his favorite movie was Patton .
