Barnone this is the best vid. I'm a service tech and gave me some great ideas on what to put in my tool bag. I hope if it's not to much if you can created another vid on a tool pouch. There are times I don't want to carry a heavy tool bag while walking a couple of blocks to my site. Keep up the great work much appreciated. I'm subscribing that's for sure.
Scott- It's mind blowing the amount of tools you have been able to neatly store in those bags.. Absolutely inspiring and love your expert thoughts on all the tools! Thanks!!!!!!!
Excellent video, thank you very much. I am a disabled DIYer. I use a a Fluke T+ Pro, instead of a non contract voltage tester. It displays voltage (24 volts minimum) but much more reliable than tick testers. Packed full of very useful information. Thank you again.
I would have said i do a little bit of everything but obviously I was wrong, i dont do much low voltage. LOL . But I have to say this is a GREAT bag tour. imho the best on youtube. Your experience shines through.
Makita sells a 3/8 impact socket set that’s pretty good. Around $20 for metric and $20 for standard and they are decently compact. Another great video.
Scott, thanks for taking the time! 👍🏻 Great to look at your setup! If you love the Pica pencil, maybe checkout the Hultafors pencil. Has a shape to it, so it doesn’t roll and fall, has replaced the pics for me…
I'm NOT a tradie and this was fascinating. I'm putting together a tool bag for home and the best value bag I found is the Rugged Xtremes Workmate - a PVC monster - very well made. Now I need to fill it up.
Thhe main reason I don't buy the tool check is that you have to buy 2 just to cover SAE and metric. I have the same set you do so far it has served me well. For the price point $20
Good review , lots of good ideas ! I’m also a Leatherman shears fan ! I use them a lot in Schools , ( some staff freak if they see a knife ) . In high value resi , you need to keep your cleaner than most Doctors !
@@scottstoolthoughts3190 Clean work clothes , and a change of work clothes is also very useful . It’s possible to be in a stamping plant in the Am , and a fancy office , or house in the afternoon ! Trust me I feel for you guys , many years ago , I was an Opps. Manager , and got to field a lot of complaints( some , quite justified ) . Gave me a Viceral hate for the “ Backpocket Electrician” types !
Agree with the ratchet screwdrivers… does my head in they are back to front! Wiha have a nice smaller hammer, I was the same, didn’t have space in my veco pro tech bag and used a small asda (same as Walmart), then found the wiha.
Great video and toolset. Suggestion: I use a small butane lighter instead of a glue gun. It takes up a lot less space. I just melt the tip of a glue stick and apply it to an emitter like chapstick. Also, I use black gluesticks!
Hey Scott. you should see if there is a multi punch tool for the keystones you use. It will change everything. i almost never use my punch tool anymore. We use a local company's generic brand keystones and they have a multi punch tool for them. Put the keystone in and squeeze, it punches all 8 wires and cuts them off.
Love those European style wire strippers@20:00. I like how you can pull out instead of the strain on the wrist. I cant find any thing like them online . I will continue to try and find them. Thank you for sharing this.
Great loadout Scott, would like to try out the Velocity bags, as budget allows of course. A few of those tools I’m gonna have to pick up as well, really cool stuff! Any idea what your main bag weighs fully loaded?
@@scottstoolthoughts3190 that’s about what my MCT weighs give or take. I really like the velocity’s middle storage space for my M12 driver and bit sets. A little pricier than veto but very well thought out. I’ve been trying to pare down what I carry but I’m a tool junkie that’s not getting any younger🤷♂️
That’s the problem, they let plumbers and people behind a desk design tool bags. I really wish a company would listen to electrical people about bag design. Never tried one of these but I’ve tried Klein, Milwaukee, veto, CLC never have I found the perfect electrician bag
7:58 Granted, I am a bit of an 'old timer,' or 'boomer' if you prefer - but I remember when these were called tie wraps 8:12 and these were called drills 9:10 . Drill bits were specifically for metal. But, of course, the tool was called a power drill.
I'm trying to find that ty-rap tote but Amazon doesn't carry the 11 inch one and all other sellers online are between $75 and 12k dollars. Does 75 dollars sound about right for a little canvas bag with clip on it?
Ordered straight from their website. If you want one shipped here, You have to email them and request a shipping quote. The way the world is right now, I think it is pretty expensive for shipping costs. www.velocity-progear.com/
You have to email them directly for a shipping quote to your location. For whatever reason, they removed the U.S. shipping option from their website. My guess is, that with the global supply chain issues, it became too prohibitively expensive.
You have to go to their website and request a shipping quote for the bag you want. Back when I first started buying their bags, you were able to select the United States as a shipping option. For whatever reason that has changed. Just an FYI, it is a bit spendy for shipping to the states now. It may have to do with global supply chain issues.
Thanks for the tip on this tool. I found one on Amazon. I also do some Low Voltage work and emitters falling off equipment happens a lot. I usually use the Fastcap double sided tape. It's pretty sticky. This may be another good solution.
I noticed you didn’t mention the Epson label makers. The px700 and px900 are far superior to the Brady level maker. More options for labels, lifetime warranty, so you do t have to worry and it does everything the Brady does and then some. I’ve owned both. The Epson is waaay waaay better. I use the self laminating labels exclusively.
Stay or go...it makes no difference to me.....not a good start to a video....I guess you're doing these videos for yourself.....You are very "snappish" lol
Soldering wires lends itself to be cut and not re-soldered when the equipment is serviced. lmao Installer vs those who have to service the installer's shit.

I like you drill
I appreciated the video. Saw a few tools that I hadn't seen in other peoples load out videos. Added a couple of those to my Christmas wish list.
Thanks for sharing and being informative about the tools 🛠 you use as a beginner I am learning along the way . Your tool bag is awesome 👏🏾

Thank You, My Friend
Some serious knowledge right here!
Thank you for taking the time to show us your great bit of kit!
My Pleasure, Sir
Awesome bag! I’ve been trying to get my hands on one for a bit now! Thanks for the video!

I love the variety in your tool bag man! When you pulled out the neji-saurus I was impressed.
😆 Thank You Sir!
Man I sure do live that m12 surge drill. Best drill I've ever used, don't think I could buy another brand drill again
Scott, thanks for taking the time! 👍🏻 Great to look at your setup!
If you love the Pica pencil, maybe checkout the Hultafors pencil. Has a shape to it, so it doesn’t roll and fall, has replaced the pics for me…
Man, that collapsible trash can is genius! 🤩
Glad you liked it! I’ll give the Hultafors a look.
Good video man. Showing support

Filling it up is the fun part!
Oh my, I need to take notes. So many things to add to my shopping list

That Velocity bag company are killing it! I still owe you a tour of your recent gift. I'm gonna have to look into them.
Right On!

Craftsman 1/4 set from Lowe's or Ace is pretty good. Biggest SAE is 9/16's. Comes with metric too and bits.
Yeah…..I don’t dig the modern Craftsman stuff. It’s part of Stanley/Black & Decker, and the quality is just average.

Great loadout Scott, would like to try out the Velocity bags, as budget allows of course. A few of those tools I’m gonna have to pick up as well, really cool stuff! Any idea what your main bag weighs fully loaded?
About 40 lbs. I shaved off 25 lbs by moving out of the Rogue 6.0, and moving into this one.

I love veto for their quality but the bag is either to big or to small
Great video, Scott. Do you still use your Maxpedition TC-5 belt pouch?
No Sir. Although it is small, I found wearing it every day to be cumbersome.
what veto bag does this compare too and why did you go with this uk company made bag?

What kind of drill did you say that was? It looked a little different then the normal m12 fuel.
He fit the whole van in there
Great video! What’s the approx weight of the velocity loaded out like this?
Thanks again for sharing with us!
About 50-ish lbs.
You have spent some money on your tools as all professionals should.
Nice drill
That intro was a bit aggressive lol
Any websites where I can purchase with shipping USA?

Velocity is currently not selling to US market. How did you get yours
They ARE selling to the US market. You have to email them for a shipping quote.

that trash can idea is a massive gold nugget idea. galaxy brain idea that you don't realize you need until you see someone else have it

Email to them
What was the brand on that cordless glue gun? It looked really compact.
Surebonder. I believe they are no longer produced, though.
Does the one you have also need a corded base?
