Here's what I do in those situations- do what everyone wants you to. Then, if you stuff comes back ruined, take it over to your inlaws, show him what your brother-out-law did to your stuff, and blame them.
Make them feel so guilty they either buy you new stuff or never ask you to do anything again. You end up as being the correct, level headed one, you still get to have sex, and you don't have to do anymore favors.
People like that won't feel guilty. Instead, they'll blame it on something else -- you for "not keeping the equipment in shape," the weather, job site obstacles, etc. Trust me -- enablers like the OP's in-laws never run out of excuses.
