hey dude, i just recently started my apprenticeship 4 months ago and these videos have helped me so much. i am now fairly comfortable with everything. thanks alot

Good video. I fully support the craftright screwdrivers.. a whole set for $9 that are actually half decent. Used them in all sorts of scenarios, construction and industrial - they do the job like any other.

[damiendaly]

Nice video mate speaking as a Bunnings Toolshop guy I do get asked about what a future sparky needs first up and I advise them to get pretty much what you just posted

Would love to see more vids. these are very helpful for someone going into electrical work like myself.

Lots of expensive power tools in your collection, but no $70 pair of moulded earplugs. They are worth it if you work in construction sites where there is always a saw operating nearby. Much more compact than earmuffs as well and you clip them onto the back of your shirt collars for easy access.

Conduit cutters. If our first years did not have one in their tool bag, they’d be toast

[jordiwalsh]

If your looking to buy tools that can last as long as they can what do reckon of kits like the wiha electrcians kit and the wera/knipex kits?

[neveroddnoreven]

I'm surprised you didn't mention electrical tape. It's quite versatile.

[Trentass]

Those screwies a 10 x better than aldis ones. Daily drive those bad boys see how they go for $9

[Sando]

Atleast if they don’t like sparky work then it’s not a huge amount of money lost.

[ericrioux]

I didn’t have to watch the video, that all is junk. If you’re an apprentice just order an apprentice kit from Klein, plenty of kits for under $200.
If anyone watches this for the love of all things holy, don’t buy these tools and then try and do electrical work professionally
