Good morning from the Great State of Texas. Good idea on the ball peen hammer and nail puller. You just solved my issue of carry two hammers. I will go and buy me a nail puller and get rid of my claw hammer. Thanks again have a good day and be safe
Awesome stuff, I love a good long load-out video. It’s fun to see how the new go bag has come together. I do like your pouch set-ups too, and this is like the “big pouch” to do it all!
It’s become a pretty good set. It’s working out well, and the best part is there’s plenty of room to throw one of my other pouches right in there with parts and anything else I need and roll. That big dewalt bag has a ton of room in it. Thanks bud!
There are so many channels that do these tool show-and-tells. And all of them feel like a bunch of guys spending obscene amounts of money on the latest and greatest tool even though they have 15 versions of the same tool already. Its like women having to have this season's shoe and not last season's. To top that off, the tools in these guys' bags inevitably look virtually unused as though they just like to collect tools but don't do much work with them. HOWEVER, this channel is not like that. I love seeing tools that have clearly been used. And I love seeing old one-of-a-kind estate sale tools. It truly is Real World tools. Most of us have a collection of tools we have inherited, bought for one job, found in a flea market, picked up along the way, or saved up for to get the top of the line. I so prefer this content to the guys with all of "this seasons offerings" from the new Wera line with velcro for miles, every red stocking stuffer that Milf**kee has flooded the box store end-caps with, or every Knipex plier ever made in every size with the red and blue comfort grips... Don't get me wrong, I love shiny new tools, but sometimes these tool videos are dizzying with the sheer amount of consumption and tool envy. *takes breath* anyway...cheers!
Gotta get ya a Veto tech bag. Got mine stocked for what I do an just about that bag alone keeps the roof over my family’s head a fed an everything else for what I do. Minus like an impact or battery ratchet or battery pvc cutter that gets used here an there. Otherwise that bag has a spot for my electrical meter an a manometer an every hand tool. After I picked up that bag I was hooked. I’ve had soft bags like that. The hard open top tool box/bags. Had tool rolls with pouches for everything. Nothing worked like this bag had. All my sockets hang on the outside clipped on by the Wera lil quarter turn socket holder strips to keep are freed on the inside. Everything just works seamless going in an out of that one more than anything else. Time is money. So to have clear smooth accessibility to whatever tools needed is just as important to me than anything else
You have virtually the same set-up I have ... The SC260 meter as well , only mine leans a little more to the electrical side ... As for sockets you may already have is the Klein 7-in-1 flip socket impact set you can toss in there ... Ain't tools fun 😂 Great vid as usual ...
I have tried the Klein flip sockets, and they are great, but I like the regular magnetic nut driver bits better. They just feel better to use for me. It would save some space though. The fieldpiece is an awesome meter. Super versatile and user friendly. Thanks bud!
Great stuff and great set up. You would really like it even more with a solid bag. I’ve used the dewalt, Milwaukee, etc. bags. And don’t get me wrong, they work. But after you use something like a veto tech or veto mc, you’ll appreciate the set of tools even more. Switching to them is one of the best moves I made, hands down.
I have a veto mc and an mb2. I use them for my hvac kits. I do love them, but they piss me off sometimes too. I like that big dewalt bag because I can just throw stuff like parts and other tool pouches and things like that in there. The vetos are so perfectly laid out where everything has a place, but you can’t just throw stuff in there, which often times is what I like to do 😂 maybe I’m just too unorganized for a veto.
Perhaps you could try swapping that Milwaukee pliers for knipex plier-wrench. I have a small one in my edc toolbag. For such small pliers they open very wide and knipex has lots of sizes so you can pick the right size for your needs.
I do have a pliers wrench the same 7 in size as the cobras I have in there, and it would cover more sizes for sure, but I just don’t like the pliers wrenches. I like an adjustable wrench way better. The 7inch plier wrench is useful though. I really hated the bigger sizes, so I sold them and held on to the small ones.
Loving the new vid on my Friday afternoon drive home. It's a great video when you can't wait to get home to play w ur tools I too don't know how I went so long w/o my snap on 47acf. Great commenting and I share lots of your opinions. I'm gunna take ur word for it and not get those new style channies from channelock- I thought they looked to cheap and hearing your first impressions helped Also I reccomend u try the bigger brother of that short blade flathead with reg size handle. Think it's the 5/16 x 6 . That thing is BEAST. Gave her a beating at work and for 6$ the value is unheard of Keep the vids coming!
The more I see that SnapOn the more I think of work. We use a screw gun with a socket attached to turn splined hardware, about half go one way and half the other way. I know I'd never in a million years talk them into spending the money on one of them but dang it'd be sweet to have for that job.
Yea as much as I want to love the channel lock speed grips, I think they might suck. If you are talking about the Wilde screwdriver, it is already in the cart on HJE 😂 those screwdrivers are awesome. Thanks for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed it on your drive home 👊
It is an absolutely amazing screw gun. The price is crazy for sure, but it might actually be worth it. It’s making me want more 14.4 like maybe the impact driver with the rocker switch next
I have a Vaughn hammer that I bought recently from Harry J Epstein. It is awesome. I love Vaughn pry bars and nail pullers too. I’ve had a couple of them for years.
Thanks! Depends on the gloves. I like the firm grip deer skin gloves for shoveling or post hole digging, Milwaukee dipped gloves for moving heavy stuff or just general purpose, and I buy the husky work gloves for just beater gloves that I will get a year out of. Probably the firm grips are my favorite.
Yea it’s really hard not to do that. I like this bag tote bag because there’s room to just throw stuff in. I might get a nicer Carhartt one like that. I’ve got a smaller one for my carpenter tools that I really like.
No that is just a Snap On thing. They do have some different stuff on Amazon that holds bits and has magnets for the Milwaukee and dewalt stuff, but nothing like that boot for the Snap on. That thing is a game changer.
I bought it from Amazon a couple years ago, but it is not available anymore. Every time I look it up it says no longer available. I’ve checked a few times because people always ask where I got it when I show it in a video. It’s a great little pouch. I wish they still sold it. Thanks bud!
Does the Fluke 101 have a backlit screen? That would be useful. I see a lot of +&- reviews on Amazon. I have several multimeters, but none have the continuity checker with a tone. Something I find myself needing. Those leads are super expensive!
It has no back light. That’s the only thing I wish it had. Still a great little meter for quick stuff though. The leads are worth it dude. Once you get those you will never go back.
Great video brother. But I have to disagree on Klein making the best electrical tools. Yes, they make some great items but not all in my opinion are top notch. I have had and have some tools from Klein that don’t perform as well as another manufacturers same tool. And vice versa applies. Certain Klein tools have a spot in each of my bags and a host of others make up the difference. I have found some wire strippers that blow Klein’s out of the water in my little opinion. I’m comparing same style btw.
Thanks man! I agree that not all Klein tools are good. I just like Klein for my main electrical stuff. Who makes your favorite wire strippers? I’m curious since the Kleins are my favorite and you say they blow them out of the water! I might need to check them out
I have lots of regular Wera screwdrivers that I have talked about in many videos, but I don’t have the one you are talking about. I do have a ratcheting wera that is ok. Wera makes great bits though. I’ve thought about buying a set of those with the extendable one you got. I’ve been leaning more towards pb Swiss though.
You're missing three important things (1) a stubby screwdriver. Saved me many times. (2) inspection mirror. (3) magnetic reacher Also, I can't remember if you had one but a voltage tester and a GFCI receptacle tester. I use them everyday. I would also recommend one insulated screw driver. I use the Klein two and one. They are good for when you need to take plates off. If you slip a regular flat head inside there on accident, there could be problems.
Those are three great suggestions. I probably will put a stubby and a magnet in there now that you point that out. I’m afraid a mirror would break in this bag, but those are great to have. I could definitely use a plug tester in there too to go with the little multi meter.
@@realworldtoolreviews the mirror is not likely to break. I have one in my bucket and I'm constantly tossing my drill in other tools inside it and the mirror is fine. It's just one of those tools you really should have. I use mine all the time.
It is from an Amazon brand called protorq. That particular long bit set that comes with that roll has been discontinued though I’m afraid. I haven’t been able to find it anymore. It’s a great roll I wish they still had it.
I like your setup. It seems like it will work well for you. Those battery boots look handy, I know a tech who has something similar, and he uses the magnet to hold the screws he removes from compressor unit covers. I would have to watch myself were I to have something like that, I could see myself leaving that stuck somewhere that would take me hours to find, like stuck to the ductwork in an attic or something similar. I carry my m12 screwdriver in a little holster six gun style. Making it feel pretty obvious when I don't have it on me. I'm wondering why, if you like the fatter handled Kleins, why don't you have their Journeyman series with their "comfort grips"? I, too, carry a small ball peen, Estwing steel handle though, my nice wood handled hammers stay at home, ever since someone borrowed a hammer I inherited from my grandfather and broke it through abuse. Those leather pouches that you have, do you wear them while working, or are you just using them for storage?
Thanks bud. It’s working well so far. I have one pair of Klein needle nose multi pliers that have the journeyman handles, and I like them ok, but I just like the plastic dip handles better. They are more comfortable. The journeyman ones are really hard and they take up a lot more room in a tool bag. That’s another reason. The new pouch that I put the pliers in is more for organization, but the other pouch that has my little every day setup gets clipped on my pocket all the time. A lot of times I’ll just grab that and go if it’s something small. Those pouches are awesome for the money in my opinion.
@Real World Tool Reviews I've had bad luck with the Journeymans handles, I bought a set, and some chemical I was working with attacked them, now I have bare metal handles, which I will say is not all that bad, as I grew up with bare handled tools.
Yes I do. They appear in many of my past videos. I have lots of the 100 plus ones and the good ole black and yellow ones. I’m a big USA Stanley screwdriver fan.
Good morning from the Great State of Texas. Good idea on the ball peen hammer and nail puller. You just solved my issue of carry two hammers. I will go and buy me a nail puller and get rid of my claw hammer. Thanks again have a good day and be safe
You remind me of a guy I work with, he has bags for everything! Bags for screwdrivers, Allen wrench bag, hammer bag!
😂 yea I definitely take tool bag organization to the extreme. I just can’t stop!
The longer you went, the bigger my Amazon shopping cart (no regrets). Great way to start a weekend: enjoying a Real World Tool Reviews video.
Lol this channel tends to have that effect on people. Thanks for watching bud!
I was thinking he needs an amazon link to the list of what he has 😊
I like that you are passionate about your tools. Same here, keep at it man, I enjoy seeing your upgrades
Thanks man! I’m glad you like the content 👊

If you love those 47ACF pliers, wait till you put your hands on the full size Needle Nose variant. The LN47ACF. The shorter version is the LN46ACF.
The twist guards are definitely worth it. Have them on my meter with a back up pair that just floats around on hand
Great setup. Love the look of that fluke meter, and even better with the mod you've done.
Thanks bud. The little fluke is awesome dude.
Kobalt has lineman pliers with built in wire strippers and since I started using them I really don't use any other.
Those glow in the dark pliers are AWESOME!! I would die for a pair of glow in the dark knipex twingrips in 150mm. A dream that'll never be!
Yea they are pretty sweet. The twin grips are a great pair of pliers. No glow handles, but I do like the textured red grips they use.
Plasti-dip has glow in the dark coating.

I love the dewalt bags. I have tons of them. And yea I have a major problem lol
Thank you, bro - Style & Craft! That pouch is exactly what I've been looking for!🫡
Glad you found it! 👊
Just wondering if you use a multi tool like a leatherman?
Check out the Vaughn hammers. Excellent price and quality and made in USA
I have a Vaughn hammer that I bought recently from Harry J Epstein. It is awesome. I love Vaughn pry bars and nail pullers too. I’ve had a couple of them for years.
@@realworldtoolreviews heck yea! I didn't know they had pry bars. I got some mayhew pry bars but you can't have enough pry bars truthfully
I use D&L all the time to.
D&L is awesome. I love it because I can get appliance parts and hvac stuff in the same place. Good prices too.
Awesome go bag set up! What is your favorite work gloves?

Still trying to get the right bag for my needs I like open tote but I keep getting to crammed in all the ones I have
