“Had a husky one but then there was this Milwaukee one and uhh well gotta get it”lmao 😂 I have the exact same philosophy, my wife hates me haha 🤣. I just don’t understand why she doesn’t appreciate the 100 different tool pouches I’ve accumulated. It’s not like I leave them laying around the house everywhere.... 🙄🤥
Get a back pack. For a thousand reasons hands free tool carrying if you’ve ever had to get to a roof, open a door or get cleaned up and get out. You can throw it on your back and still have 2 hands for more stuff. Also when it falls over it doesn’t end up as a yard sale of tools everywhere
Those "whompers" you got, we call Those rabbit ears in South Texas. Everytime I watch a video like this it's crazy hearing the different names for things..also the knipex demo knife you got there is pronounced kah-knee-pex but most people say ni-pex..German brand they make some pretty bad ass pliers that I'd recommend. Knipex cobras..worth it
Not sure on the type of stuff you're working on other there in the US, but should try out the Knipex pliers wrench they are even more bad ass than the cobras. Smooth jaws so they don't chew up the glands we use over here in the UK. They are far from cheap though..
Some advice from a man that’s been doing this for years. Ditch most of that stuff to a bag you leave in the truck. Majority of the time you won’t need all of that when you’re on the job site, and it’s just gonna hurt your back in the end. Also major tip BUY AN ENGRAVER. People will rip that tape right off, and walk right off the site with all your shit if you aren’t careful.
The way I keep my tools clean is I'll put a coat of oil on them, really thin. And I put those sillica packs you get in random boxes in with my tools, have yet so see rust on them. Of course if they get mud or water on them I keep a cloth to wipe em off as well
Nah the problem is working in a freezer, as soon as you walk out your tools get covered in condensation and it takes a long time to dry out because it's so cold
I like a brass wire bruch and scotch brite pads, and steel wool at times. Brass brushed are more rust protective. I also used the black Rust Converter spray paint on occasion, and it lasts a long time on my steel trailer. I used to do sprinkler work and fought rust on pliers and wrenches. The black paint helped identify my tools and kept them rust free , easily identifiable, and less theft. I also like my stainless steel wire strippers. Fluid film is kind of waxy, messy, smelly, and collects dust.
lmao, just transferred into this bag from a wheeled bag, trying to reduce how much garbage I can fit in the bag. While watching this I now know that I'm missing my level and know where I left it. Glad to see well used tools and think we have same problem, multiple redundant tools. Why do we need 4 pairs of tongue & groove pliers? Thought I'd try to reduce weigh by switching to a stripper/cutter/crimper combo. Strippers behind joint is a pain and don't trust the little cutter/crimpers to do the job with one hand. I wipe my tools down once in a while and just rag them down with WD40 which is usually when a pair of pliers start to locking up.
Knipex, pricey but they the some of the best quality tools for strippers, wire cutters. Their linesman pliers is amazing, wiha and wera German brands are also great. Best oils and grease in my opinion are from the bike (bicycle) world get a small fine needle dropper try applying thin film oil on tool heads be careful of using on insulated tools check manufacturers recommendations hot water and liquid wash on handles plastic and rubber you can also use 99 percent isopropyl alcohol but again read manufacturers recommendations. slightly thicker grease on joints a great product you could use is muc-off bike chain lube for these leverage joints. The high quality lube is expensive but smell very nice and is thinner than heavier grease and is very good in keeping two surfaces from mating and locking up. The tool will also feel smooth to use. Take care of the tools and they will take care of you. Too many times I see many sparkys with really beat up tools if something snaps on the job replacing that is fine but replacing tools due to neglect is throwing money away. Often you keep a tool long enough and if it’s well cared for it will perform even better than when you first broke it in.
Evapo Rust works excellent safe for plastics, rubber and wood. A little expensive but look into it. Just soak overnight and comes out brand new unless there is pittting
Gunzilla eats rust and conditions the metal. It's pricey, but you don't need a lot to begin with. Just rub it on and you're basically done. Surface rust isn't a problem, you'll just have to clean larger rust patches with a wire brush or something.
My dad said to let them sit in diesel! To clean the rust out, and also for maintenance. Try it and let me know. I am fixing to try it soon enough. I have been needing to clean mine. :)
Put your tools in vinegar to get rust of, rinse it off with water after a day, and immediately dry and I personally use super lube and cover all exposed metal, makes them look brand new again
For cleaning tools I use WD-40 with a metal brush(toothbrush size head). Spray it generously let it seat for 3-5 mins then scrub with brush wipe and repeat. It helps with rust and lubrications I am happy with the result. Every 4-5 months I do this.
Yeah, probably because of the voltage difference. Although in the USA because it is 110V that means you would need a greater current when compared to 230V in the UK to be able to run the same appliance. This is also the same story when you compare the frequency of the USA which is 60Hz and for the UK is 50Hz so technically speaking being an electrician in the USA is significantly more dangerous the being one in the UK as the frequency alternates directions more times in a second meaning there is a greater risk of the electricity crossing through your heart if you were to be electrocuted. You would think that because of this the USA would have insulated tools like the UK because of the greater risk but just goes to show the difference in regulations between the USA and the UK.
Political greed got evolved in the selection of our voltage in the "new world". Smaller the voltage the more copper you'll need to sell. I like the higher voltage personally. Its more efficient.
@@therandomking1265 hz is relative to equipment you are running and operating. What affects electrical shock is voltage , amperage and the resistance of the path to ground. Think of voltage as the size of boxer and amperage is how much lead is stuffed in his gloves. The higher the voltage the more its going to hurt but the more amps you take the more posable damage. The difference of 10 hz a second is irrelevant.
2:49 " I had a Husky bag before this and I kinda found it fit the tools better". I couldn't agree more! Love the Packout, but disappointed in the tool bags. I would like to have seen a row of compartments for small tools on the large tool side, and more on the outside. I think all of us trades (I’m a plumber) use a large variety of small tools (pliers, screwdrivers, etc). I have a 20" Husky bag that has 34 slots/compartments with a spacious interior as well, which beats the pants off any Milwaukee Packout tote. Unless Milwaukee ups their game, I will chop the Packout connectors off of something else, and hot glue gun them to the bottom of my Husky bag. I bought my first Milwaukee power tools in the '80s, and am a huge fan, but these Packout tool bag layouts get 2 huge thumbs down from me. Sorry Milwaukee :(
Cheyne Best I only use knipex .. so in my tool bag I have 2 linesman pliers 3 various long noses (straight angled and snub nose) 3 various sizes of pipe grips , 2 side cutters , small bolt cutter and wire cutter which are all knipex .. the screw drivers I use are wiha
Yeah, I mainly have klein with the exception of knipex water pump pliers. I recommend the dewalt reamer with a hex drive and is rated for your impact... saves the wrist and time.
Isolating the power supply is common safe work practices, but there is always a chance of an isolator and circuit breaker failing and making the circuit live. Or you could even get a nasty induced voltage if you have a circuit running along side a much larger cable on a cable tray.
Those are shears. You use them for low voltage lines such as less the 50 volt to thermostats and data lines. He says he works in industrial and he mentioned working in freezers so he'd use them there. I do low voltage data line work and use mine for cutting ethernet cords and even coax if it's rg59
Lmhicks101 just extra weight use your side cutters or linesmen players. All the extra little bits of tools and stuff adds up fast. Are you An Electrican Lmhicks?
I'm an electrition, too. Here in Europe we have very different tools for doing our work. Man, you have too much tools and most of them look very crappy. Throw the hole stuff away and buy some Knipex and Wera tools
He’s cleaned it up many electricians do the same when doing tool bag review. Yes it will be dusty and full of left over stuff. You can tell he is a work look at the state of his tools lots of black mark grease and showing signs of wear and tear. In fact he’s asking even how to clean his tools. Once a week clean the tools they will last forever.
I will never understand comments like this. Do you literally get your self esteem from dirty tools? So bizarre. Some of the dumbest motherfuckers I’ve ever worked with had the nastiest dirtiest tools ever. So dirty tools definitely does NOT equate to knowledge or skill.

All Great minds think alike 🤣!!
Mine says u just have to have all brand name don't ya like a child well mom yea I do lol sorry not sorry but I take pride in my work and tools I say
Buy a 30 dollar engraver and get rid of the orange tape. There’s no question when it comes to who’s tool it is with engraved initials. Thumbs up!
Good idea, but the tape color he is using makes it easy to identify his tools from a far😂
That's what I did with my 1st set too
Use steel wool to clean rust and light coat of 3 in 1 oil.

To clean tools and to keep them clean i use a rag, some scotch-brite and ballistol oil, all you need.

I'm gonna watch this again for the 5th time because reasons
I'm working with non-rusting tools mostly. :) I'm using WD-40 and similar stuff to clean and oil the joints. Wet rag for cleaning the handles. :)

Nah the problem is working in a freezer, as soon as you walk out your tools get covered in condensation and it takes a long time to dry out because it's so cold
Soak in white vinegar overnight, wash with soap and water, and dry throughly. I’d use some 3-in-1 oil afterwards. Thanks for the video man.

You can use vinegar and put some salt over the rust. leave them in there for a day or two.
Sweet bag...I'm new to the trade and my buddy had me dumping sand and wd40 on my linemen players. Still not sure he wasn't messing with me
No I used wd40 to break mine in too they’re so loose now and feel great
Valve grinding compound is a good trick for breaking in sticky pliers
"Linezman" and when you said needle nose got me lmao. As an electrician from Texas I got a kick out of watching this. Have a good one!
I use a steel wire brush then a light coat of 3 in 1 oil. You can use one on a drill if you have several to do just wear gloves because of kick back.

Put the metal parts in ketchup and let them sit there for a few hours and then just wipe them off. Maybe spray them with some lube spray afterwards
That's a great tool bag. But there's no pockets in other side. So I returned it. When full of tools it will cause bag to lopside.
Make a backup crate that you could leave in your vehicle so you dont need to carry around three-four of the same tool
0:53 flathead is the name of the screw head NOT the driver head....... SLOTTED is the name you are looking for.
little handbag?? wow here i thought was a milwaukeee packet tote 15 our 20 in lol cool
3 in 1 oil is amazing to clean and protect your tools
Evapo rust, or wd 40 and scotch brite pad…. Or both!
Wire brush WD-40 and some light sanding also clean them weekly
Nice set of tools . Fine bras brush and wd40 would solve the problem . Just need to bi patient ...
Wire brush and some Wd-40 or you can also use a scotch-brite pad
Go straight to olive oil just put some olive oil on them and just sit there and work it in like keep opening and closing the tool it will work
Fluid film will keep the rust away. Good stuff. Lubes it like wd40 aswell
Most the apprentices I've had wouldn't be able to lift that bag let alone carry it ,lol.
I use some worn emery cloth and WD40 to remove big rust
For cleaning tools I use WD-40 with a metal brush(toothbrush size head). Spray it generously let it seat for 3-5 mins then scrub with brush wipe and repeat. It helps with rust and lubrications I am happy with the result. Every 4-5 months I do this.

Open totes = all tools " borrowed" hopefully to be returned
Electrician from Ireland here weird to see how different our tools look to you Americans
I would like to see that... is it the interchange of Klein and channel lock to Knipex and whatever else?
I live in Canada , my tool box is literally identical to this however I also have a Klein pipe reamer

Thank you for sharing
Would have Ben nice if you would have posted a link to this model!
Wire wheel is what I use then some oil
Why all the foreign milwaukee stuff??
WD-40, a wire brush, and a rag should clean your tools up a bit and keep them working smooth
I didn't know the sasquatch from Tenacious D was an electrician!!!!
NICE!
Where I can buy same as your clamp for gloves? Thx
With all that ideal stuff I bet you work for Faith lol
What model is it?
