Great stuff, just subscribed to your channel! Thanks
I like how you put the 'Skil' foam in it's place😂
First time watching. Great channel. Will binge it now !!
WOW I had no idea there where so many tool brands. Bloody amazing. Subed
Did u see anything to stop tool theft from vans there at the show??
This is the type of show we need in the UK! I love the diverse mix of national vs independent manufacturing.
In the States, we only have these shows for tradesmen. I think they would be very popular if they opened them up to the public.
Tough Built might be my new favourite brand, the prices are so affordable for the average tradesman and the quality is unreal! Love it!
I’ve always skimmed past them before when I’ve seen them in B&Q, perhaps they’re worth further consideration. 2/3 years ago I found a Homebase own brand flathead driver, probably about 10mm. I used it for something ( chisel, podger or the like ) at the time to protect my expensive Klein driver. Afterwards I found a vertical slot on the outside of my tool bag and mindlessly put it in.
I’m a self confessed tool snob, but damn, that driver is by far my most used tool………………. 😂😂😂
Cool tool finds.
2:25 I have this spanner but it is made by crescent tools and you can get a socket adapter for 1/4 " screwdriver bits and 1/4" & 3/8 socket adapter. Did try and upload a Picture( but the app doesn't support it ) and the guy at work gave me the different adapters from another make, oh maybe that was Sata tools
Autoloader looks brilliant, can’t believe that was invented years ago and no big company hasn’t bought into it. Mark seems a very decent bloke tbf
I bought an autoloader from Festool in 2009 and it still works fine. There is a text on the handle "MADE IN CANADA - U.S. AND FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING." I have one for Torx bits and one for Hex bits, very handy. Next time I'd like to go to the Eissenwarenmesser, didn't know it existed ...
yes, it's been out a while. I've had one like 15 years or so. Everyone loves to "borrow" it and I have to go find it. Bought a second one to hide so I didn't have to waste time finding the first one all the time! hehe... but it is handy, you don't lose the bits, and you can pull them out to swap a different one into the rotation. 8^)
Trade shows in Germany are always amazing. Loved the Sata socket set with the through ratchet design. Just brilliant
Love the idea of the lads from Hammerstroke giving tradesmen a way to realise the ideas they have probably had for years
thanks! We love it too!
Respect for the way your were so friendly and polite even after seeing so many different salesman and not getting snippy or rude despite I suspect getting quite tired.
It'1s great fun watching someone who really enjoys tools. Not old tools but new and exciting innovative tools. Keep the videos coming and well done.
Man you make tools cool! So good seeing people happy, friendly and giving things away.. made me smile
I love how the guy selling the 600 euro trowel didn't flinch when you said it was expensive and he just said "Yes" lol
😂 wasn;t much I could say to that really
I can just imagine Dave the bricklayer rocking up on site with his custom engraved £540 Towel, soon lost for ever in the site skip whilst he takes his morning dump in the portaloo
Well it’s handmade Japanese, they can ask for however much they want. Doubt they’ll sell many.
Oh for the days of a canvas bass .... how did we build and lose an empire without all this stuff ?
That is another level of 'tool you hand down for generations'
The folding ruler is very popular in the nordic countries, in Norway we use it almost exclusively except for longer measurements above 2 meters.
Yeah, he really wanted to promote his tape measure 😂
The OX foldable ruler design, was originally made of wood and brass and was the British joiners standard ruler before the tape measure and was a very versatile measuring rule.
I really like the Tough Built line so far. They seem to keep coming up with new ways to make tools more functional at a reasonable price point. Love the Shadow Foam too!!
I would have to say that BMI level/tape measure is the most innovative tool IMHO
I got one of these 4 years ago at the Sandown park show. It doesn't get used very often but useful putting up shelves, mirrors and pictures if I don't have a long level to hand.
Love the Skil screwdriver and the and the Sata kit.
Watching these videos is basically a gateway drug for buying more tools. Just ordered the SATA spanner. I have used shadow foam on loads of my tools. Hopefully they do kits for Peli cases in the near future.
The thing I really liked about the BMI booth is while theyre trying some new stuff.. trying to innovate.. theyre also doing traditional things which I think is cool. And while not every idea is a good idea you still learn something.
I agree, i like the mix of innovation and tradition, you get the best tools that way!
I know the tools are quirky and awesome in their own right but you're just as awesome for going to other countries to find these tools. 😊
That little foam chat at 12:48 was really interesting. I was never sure of the differences between your product and everything else, but your explanation was very insightful.
Hi James, I am very glad to hear you say that! I don;t usually bring it up in the videos often because I know not everyone is as interested in foam as I am but I am glad it has resonated with you mate!
Same
Yeahhhh, kaizen is wayyy better than picknpluck, the former lasts forever when taken care of. Picknpluck rots in the sun and just falls apart.
Great video, great content ,love the tools@@ShadowFoam
@@ShadowFoam brother I'm from India im not able to get hands on any of the tools bro maybe you start to sell them here too if we wanna import the shipping cost is more than the actual product cost..
That SATA passthrough looks nice, can't find it on Amazon UK at the moment but will keep an eye out for it in the future
Think the video idea of sustainable tools is a great one. Love seeing how certain tools that have been around for years can advance with the modern era.
Another video idea - A tour through your own personal tool kit. Watching you videos has made me realise there are loads of weird and wonderful tools out there so it would be interesting to see which you genuinely admire and are your go to when on a job.
Thanks so much for a look into the show. I'm always interested in how the smaller innovations get into our hands!
Great information given on your product and on different tools that can be purchased.
I also have an addiction with storage boxes, bags, foam, glad I’m not the only one!☝🏻
That’s a fantastic show with a whole load of innovative tools
Thanks for the great video. Love your enthusiasm for innovation. The autoloader 6-in-1 looks awesome.
Hi, Thank you for a brilliant video, what a great enthusiasm you have for tools! As a keen diyer I love to see new and useful additions to the toolbox. That Cologne tool fair looks awesome. I'm definitely looking into Sata products now, and the Skill driver is great. Best wishes and thanks again
I'm not even a tradesman but there's something about quirky tools that I love... subscribed!
I have to say going around that exhibition I would have been there for ages. I love ingenious tools. Starting to fall for the toughbuilt bits. Thanks for the great videos and content 👏🏻
My 8 year old and I are now obsessed with these trade show videos. Just some great stuff coming out.
just discovered your site and I'm blown away with what you are showing us.
Just want to say I love your channel, great to see someone as excited by tools as myself, especially a fan of your German tool fair and your trip to USA videos.
Its great to be able to see all this gear and get some honest thoughts. I didn't know some of this stuff was compatible with other makes, so as long as you don't mind a colour change. Thanks for sharing
Tough Built is defiantly favourite, the innovation for the scarper knife and the storage system looks quality.
Always thinking about real world situations and needs. Love that. Great job.
I believe Crescent has the wrench with pass through sockets as well
I am so addicted to these videos. Thanks for introducing me to Toughbuilt!
Really appreciate your honest and down to earth approach in these videos and first impressions. Keep up the good work!
I’m also heading to my first tool fair in Exeter later this month and I’m keen to know if there are any particularly interesting or quirky tools to keep an eye out for. Any suggestions?
Wow. Great to see all the different tools. Going to get me that Sata set. Looks great!
Love the blade sharpener. Having all the differing angles self contained is awesome!
I wonder if it has a chart inside or inside the lid/flap that indicates what things might have what angles.. or do you just line the edge up with each and find a match? Nice to have choices to get the proper angle!
SATA Tools are a secret gem of the tool world. I do precision machining of arms and tools of the trade for some American agencies and use SATA quite often for assembly. Solid tools.
This is the first episode I’ve seen of your show. I like it. A new subscriber and looking forwards to future content.
It’s great to see trade people’s ideas for innovative solutions like the cork warmer.
Would love to see more from the small guy.
Dean from New Zealand
as someone just starting out getting a arsenal of tools together i really enjoyed seeing all these tools!
It's always fun noticing metric tape measures when viewing this from the other side of the pond.
Wow what an amazing show ! Would love to have gone around that. Before i retired was lucky enough to go around the nec shows but still love tools and building projects. The skil screwdriver looked pretty good
Keep the vids coming cheers
Bought my first Toughbuilt tool earlier this week, it won’t be the last as the quality and innovation is exceptional. 💎
That show looked like heaven we need more like this in the uk and on this scale
Hi, i'm a french viewer of your channel and just loved your tour at this german tool fair !! I think the Sata wrench would be my prefered tool from this stunning list. Keep on making us discover some new and great tools.
Love the look of those magnum tape measures and pipe grips. Also the DeWalt speaker and speaker/earbuds. Think i will be going to cologne next time myself!
Never realised how much I’d enjoy watching someone go around a tool show
Great seeing innovative products, I quite liked the autoloader!
Loved most of the top 10. But if I had a choice the Lego pliers to give to my grandson would be great. He loves getting out to the shed and helping grandad. I hope he keeps his enjoyment of working with his hands as he grows up.
I love the adjustable wrench with the sockets that fit into the ratchet at the end, what a cracking idea. Just started getting a few Ryobi items inspired by your shadow board, just need a few more bits and then can get a board made up. Thanks for all the content, great channel and look forward to what’s next.
Foldable measures are the best! Simple and longlasting.
Love toughbuilds products! So jealous of the trip! Number 2. Autoloader looks a great addition to the toolbox! 🤞
That Knipex ferrule crimper is super handy it will get into areas a regular one wont and it has a huge range of crimp sizes , got to love German engineering.
Great video but I'm also impressed at just how informative the comments section is! Great job creating a such a cool community and hope we can catch up again at Makers Central!
Thanks for the enthusiastic way you present the innovative finds. The white zollstock rulers are like gold dust.
I use the Toughbuilt tool bag connection system and love them. I like being able to switch what tool bag I have on my belt at any time. Their saw horses are really great as well.
Hi, I have to say that the margin marker is my favourite tool. It maybe a simple thing, but it is amazing how many people notice the exacting margins I have around my door frames,and this will make my life easier having this, amongst all the other freebies.
That shadow foam is the BOMB! No more pick a part foam!
Fantastic session, great insight to who’s leading tool innovation, keep up the great work!
Love clever innovations. Thanks!
The autoloader screwdriver was an awesome tool. Would be amazing to have something like this at work
The Sata ratchet system is my favourite tool there in your display, You need to get a line of those over here for sure! I will buy a set for sure.
Number 3, Sata, love the multi-tool, a socket that fits any nut and it's fits nuts on a threaded bar. Great looking and practical tool.
Love the show. Awesome tools! Love the Autoloader 6-in-1 Multibit Screwdriver in particular.
I really like the Sata Universal Driver! So compact for covering so many sizes!
I love the idea of the SATA pass through wrench, its simply amazing.
I agree, that's why I bought the Crescent branded set about 5 years ago (they're called X6).
Awesome show!! Loving the BMI folding speed square. The traditional ones are such an awkward shape to keep in my bag. Keep up the great work.
Love the screwdriver quick swap idea, looked much easier than anything I have had in the past.
Its fantastic to see what other countries have to offer. Language barrier does not seem to be a problem in this sector of the market.
That Sata ratchet is pretty nifty. A great tour and rundown, lots of fun stuff!
Thanks Chris! 👌
I would be interested in both seeing more booths in the show next year and would buy the tools if you brought a couple over.
Keep it up, another great vid 👍
Love your upbeat persona. Great interactions.
I really liked the compact measuring tape and the Sata wrench. Very nice video.
Thankyou for the down to earth way of your presentations. The honest reviews. You I can trust, with your advise, and amazing foam. The tool that took my heart was definitely the Canadian built instant screwdriver bit swap unit. That would definitely find a way into my toolbox, along with the Skil electric screwdriver. Keep up the excellent work.
I was selling the Autoloader probably 12 maybe 15 years ago, they were supplied by Festool when I was a Festool reseller here in the UK. A great product, they are so good that my daughter and my wife each have their own one in their tool kits. Remember the ladies in your life need a tool kit!
Trade shows like the one in Germany are hard work, yes they can be enjoyable. The hardest show I ever did, working the booth and also going around the halls was the AAW Show in Atlanta Georgia in 2010, which was a four-day show. With the big shows you need at least two days to go around and then a third day to revisit the important booths if you need to tie down business.
For me, the SATA wrench with socket set made a lot of sense but my daughter would go for the Lego set.😊
I really like the BMI Pico tape, the fact you could use it as a ruler is pretty cool.
The Auto loader and the Sata set are my favourites, both clever space saving designs!
Honestly really cool to understand that a lot of these stack able tool chests are all made from the same company but branded different, but love the look at the pro-click, need to check these out!
Love the post mate, I normally won’t watch an hour long video but you proved me wrong. Absolutely loved it and didn’t want it to end. Thanks for all your passion. Ps Them Sata sockets look Unbelievable for the price, i can’t comprehend how they can actually make a profit on them for less than £30 …….Keep it up Fella.👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️
BMI: Although I don’t live in the UK, check the other great BMI measuring tapes:
BMImeter 2M
BMImeter 3M
BMI 405 Viso 3M (With top view window for inside measuring)
BMI Pico
I have them all (Viso in Festool dressing..😉) They are all great, my favourite is the BMImeter in both 2M and 3M 👌
Absolutely love your video, all the tools you reviewed and the tools display wall behind.
Tools are pretty addictive especially innovative ones. I loved the pro click system, the l boxx system anf the full OX triple stack setup.
Did I say I’m in love with the display wall behind you 😍
GREAT AND WONDERFUL TOOLS THANKS FOR KEEPING ME UP TO SPEED AND NOT HAVING TO GO THERE SYDNEY A LONG WAY AWAY
Really liking the look of tough built recently, tempted by the scraper blade to start my collection. Thanks for show casing these tools.
Love shadow foam, the smaller and longer tape measure is an ace idea. Love to win a give-away kit
Lots of fun stuff. The Ox triple stack looks useful, but I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on the spring-loaded auto grips.
Great video! Love the Lego pliers.
I’ve always thought tapes could be smaller, good to see someone has eventually sorted it.
Loving what toughbuilt are putting out, fresh ideas are always brilliant. Loving the content keep it up!
Would really like to see more of the innovation from SATA tools, there’s nothing out there like their pass thru socket & wrench we saw on you trip to the tool show. Really appreciate your enthusiasm for the unusual and lesser know brands.
Also, that dude “wooden rulers are a museum piece” they’re cool and I WANT one of the Hultafors ones! L-Box stuff looking great as well!
Yeah he was full of it.
Next year you could have a shadow foam road trip and get supports in show reviews, Being a successful company adding unique useful tools sounds a match in heaven 😀 😊
It’s definitely something I want to do more of! 👍
I really appricietaa all these tools, these videos, show some new stuff in the field, so i can find out what i might get for my workshop !
Really glad this video came up randomly on my feed, super enjoyable expo!
Love quirky tools especially ones that help me as a sparky out
I love the high visual tape measure is amazing. We need these in America.
I love your shadow foam stuff.
I’d love to be able to make a tool wall for our community workshop with it.
You gotta love a tool show👍👍👍Germany makes great tools with great steel.
Hammerstroke seems so cool with the whole tradesman ideas to market idea.
Those SATA and BMI are amazing. If i didn't come across your channel i wouldn't know they existed. Cheers
