Must Have Tools

[aj]

"Gotta have a level"

The first time an electrician has ever said those words.

[jamesfair]

Those craftsman made in Germany those are branded Knipex cobra water pump pliers. Knipex made branded tools for craftsman and Mac that I know of and probably others as well.

I have those same kliens and have been using them for over 10 years. They never let me down. I've cut wires and small bolts with them. Installed some exit signs today and the bolts they gave me to mount the plastic mount to the metal bracket were almost 4 inches long. Took my Kliens and cut them down to 1 inch and worked like a charm. They will also cut chain link fence like nothing.

The Knipex and Klein are really top quality. We have Knipex here I haven't seen Klein here for a while maybe 6 or 7 years.

Nice docushort! Love the Milwaukee razor. I like the Klien tick with the flashlight and my linesmans also have to be Klien, but with a crimp knob and those grey Klien finishers greatfilly took 3 tools off my hip. Hallelujah!!!

Volt claws are a must have, got all my coworkers *hooked* on using 'em, handy as hell.

You should do a video for electrician apprentice starter tools for the potential sparky

[christopherworks]

Depending on the work you do. Nice starter kit. But for me.
Insulated screw drivers flat, Phillips, square tip(aka roberts tip)
Electricians hammer.
Large gage stripper.
Cable cutters.
Level large and small Knipex
Knife
Pencil

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. (Joel 2:12-13)
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13)

[keegannoel]

Idk how people get by with so little tools. I have 2 cloth bags, a bucket buddy, and my tool belt and I still find new shit I need every day

[Mindless.creation]

I’m not even a electrician or going to school to become one, but I do enjoy these types of videos 👌🏼

[dustinpomeroy]

I own Doyle, Knipex and Southwire diagonals and of the 3 the Knipex require considerably more force to cut than the other 2, I will take the Doyle's all day long over the Knipex.The Southwires are just unreal at how little effort it takes to cut wire.

“…takes care of my stripping needs.”


Giggidy.

[mrindependent]

Most importantly the toughbuilt pouch that clips on and off
Much easier to put belt on with no weight

[mitchhifi]

After 17 years Wire strippers are allowed but don't you ever let an apprentice use those for the love of God

[nickolascunningham]

Those craftsman pliers are just knipex cobras with a craftsman word stuck on there, exactly the same as knipex

[mattberg]

Knipex are night and day better than modern day Klein

[darkinertia]
