You say that they borrow stuff and it comes back broken? Just keep the broken parts. Especially the ones you can reinstall after you get done using the machine yourself. Whenever someone comes around to "borrow" your machinery, then alas and alac, why just look, this thing is broken, gee I'm sorry but maybe I'll get it fixed by next month--- If you keep EVERYTHING in a perpetual state of disrepair and you keep your fuel tanks BONE DRY, perhaps they'll decide you are too "unreliable" and won't come back! Of course, the repairs to your machinery should be EXTREMELY EASY to "Repair" so that YOU are not inconvenienced too much. Also, make sure that your fuel barrel(if you have one) remains "empty" so that you are unable to top up any fuel tanks as well. It doesn't have to be REALLY empty, just "officially empty"! Another possibility is for any of your equipment having rubber tires, to have a lot of flats. This can be accomplished by merely deflating them and you can have the pleasure of claiming "vandalism"! Naturally, with bad tires they can't really move the machinery too far. If necessary, you can get a few spare wheels, with really old tires on them and install a few prominant nails yourself---. Just be sure you hide the good wheels! See how easy it is to become a VERY unreliable source of machinery for your neighbors?
