After watching your first video I decided to put a order in with Luke to replace my Occidental nylon belt. I went with the R1HD-Mini for my right, the LT2 for my left, the wide belt pad, suspender mounts, and the standard belt. So far I am loving the layout and I am very happy with my purchase, Cheers.
I am 23 years old, been framing houses a couple years now and i just bought one of these set ups back in march, and i love it so much, easily the best tool i ever purchased and i know it will last me atleast 10 years probably 20 .. i love it soo much infact i am going to by another set up of bags so i can have a small set up with that small right hand diagonal hammer/ tape pouch and a L1 Mini on the left. thank you Luke if your seeing this
Wicked video. Your original video was one of the deciding factors for me to purchase my original set up for Akribis. Since then I have purchased more bags. I have a full framing set up and a trim set it. Beautifully done!
@@RemarkableWoodworks yes they are aha I want more. I am actually as weird as it sounds hoping that one day they make a limited edition type wallet ahaha have to support Canadian made!
This belt is 100% more my style, I don't usually do the suspender style. Might have to look into getting a lighter duty one made. Also some of those J-cuts in this video chefs kiss
I didn’t wear toolbelts, but now that I have this massive construction project that I’m currently working on, you may have convinced me to get a tool belt
Awesome video Mark! These akribis belts are legit!! Your first video helped with my decision to try them. I couldn't be happier. I had plant to order a set of suspenders and a couple of accessories at the beginning of this month, to finish off my setup... I ended up with a full blown second setup with a bunch of accessories 😂🤣 Should arrive by Tuesday... feel like a kid waiting for Christmas
Hey thanks Mark for your video they are awesome. Your first vid got me to buy my first Akribis tool belt and DAMN !!!! i love it AKRIBIS is the best . Keep on the good work and cheers from Quebec .
Hi thank you for the info on your tool belt. I was wondering if the company call you to make sure the make the perfect disposition for your belt. thanks
Hi, Mark, I love your video, and thank you so much for sharing! I just have one question about the weight, so what do you think about the weight to compare to the other brands? Thx
Im not a carpenter, not even in the construction industry but i’ve been watching Akribis products for a year now, complete eye porn. Love the videos buddy 🤘🏻
Try to order my tool belt, early this month and was told that they are not shipping to New Zealand or Australia, because of Covid-19 ...which Zuks because I had the day off from work hoping that my order will get through!!!
@@RemarkableWoodworks Yeah ...I ordered a 'Occidental Leather 5089 LG Seven Bag Framer' which Zuks big time ...then ordered a ' Occidental Leather 8385 LG Black Belt Rough Framer Set' and now I'm selling the both off them to find something like these bag !!! No I lost my job because we have been lock-down of about 10weeks now !!!
@Jono I have my old 'Taurus' for sale only has about 10mths use, haven't put it on Trademe yet! I think these tool belts look okay, but I'm turning 65yrs on the 8th Nov 2021... me thinks I need something before I carp it! ...had 1 day off just before 'Labour Weekend' and the boss called the police, had the house surround by cops (thought that I might of hurt myself, by having the day off!) ...I thought that was a 'Over The Top' (O.T.T.) ... then I had the week off and went to work and picked up my tools and left !!!
This is wild. I'm transitioning from the shop as a cabinet specialist into custom log homes. I love the level of customization for tool belts is on par with how I customized my work cart
If I did more framing I would definitely consider getting one of those belts but I’ll stick to my cheap belt, no sense on buying a good belt of it’s just gonna hang on the wall of my shop lol the belts look awesome tho
Did you add handles too? If so is that for hanging the bags up when your not using the suspenders? Putting together an order for when the shop opens today, thanks for the video!
Hows the weight. I do highrise formwork and rough framing on the side and my occidentals get heavy in the rain and snow. Tried going with nylon bags but I always prefered leather.
I believe you'll notice the weight difference once the bags are wet. The leather akribis uses is treated waterproof leather like you'll find in waterproof work boots. I just saw a video where he soaked different leathers. The weight on his leather barely changed when soaked, compared to untreated leather which doubled in weight. Akribis also has the HR (high rise) series of bags. They have built in D-rings on the bag corners.
Really dig your videos Mark!!! As for the toolbelt, the Lmini, do you find opening the top large bag (The one with the loops inside) big enough to carry and access lets say 3" screws? Cheers!
I'ts been 2 years but i need to see you squat down in that belt, i don't want to have to be taking my belt off wehn working in low spaces where I have to crawl or squat
God no! It was cringe, 🙄 I hate it when men demean and emasculate themselves. There's enough feminists out there doing that besides giving them a hand. I say grow some balls and be a man. It's your money, you went out there and busted your ass working in all weather's to earn it. If you want to spend it on a custom made tool belt so be it. Does she run her shoe and handbag purchases past you? A tool belt will make you money unlike all that useless crap that women buy. Men are producers, women are consumers. The man is always the prize, men need to start acting like the prize.
@@RemarkableWoodworks I have the O.L finisher rig. I like it apart from the leather hammer loop and the lack of a slot for a mini speed square. The leather hammer loop should be inclined to the rear, 👍🔨🇮🇪
Thx so much Mark! Such a well done video, I’m honoured to be so well represented🙏👊
Thanks for all that you do my man!
Just ordered a set for myself. Too bad I start a remote job in 2 weeks and won't get to use them for the first month of the job lol

Can you fit snip in the r1hd mini?

I know its been a while but how heavy is the setup and do you use suspender?
For a self professed old guy, that setup honestly looks very heavy to me. However, I do appreciate how much customization you can achieve.

@@tylerhicks1793 What trim setup did you go for?
@@TheToolnut I have 2. I have a set up for when I frame and one for trim
The trim ones are a couple of the mini bags that I put onto my buckaroo belt
This belt is 100% more my style, I don't usually do the suspender style. Might have to look into getting a lighter duty one made. Also some of those J-cuts in this video chefs kiss
Hahahaha thanks homie
I didn’t wear toolbelts, but now that I have this massive construction project that I’m currently working on, you may have convinced me to get a tool belt
If your in the Toronto area, you’re more than welcome to try mine out before you buy
@@RemarkableWoodworks wish I was! This probably would be perfect for a current project I’m working on, when I have to be on ladders or on a rooftop!
Quality video and quality items! Please upload more videos of your projects and keep up the good work :)
Means A Lot Tom, thank you! I’m definitely going to work on putting out more videos!
Great video and beautiful belt!!!! I love that the different bits are exposed so I know where to steal them from 🤪
Hahaha I believe they are called the Brolaw Bit holder
Awesome video Mark!

Love Arribas great video awesome info
Thanks Mark! You sold me on the Akribis Belt, I ordered it! Where did you order your hats from? Dope
The intro is so accurate
hahah we've all been there
hey I'm interested in buying suspenders but am on the smaller size do you think they would fit me at 5'9 140 pounds
Im 5’ 6 and have the same set up. Suspenders fit just fine.
How long was the shipping? Ill be ordering some when the shop reopens
This is wild. I'm transitioning from the shop as a cabinet specialist into custom log homes. I love the level of customization for tool belts is on par with how I customized my work cart
That is THE BEST INTRO EVER IN THE WORLD.!!!!!!!!!! EVER EVER EVERRRRR
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
hahahah thanks buddy!
How heavy is it ? Compared to nylon tool belt ? I’m thinking about getting one..
Great and informative video. Thanks I will be ordering my bags soon.
thanks for the feedback John!
@@RemarkableWoodworks I Love them!!! Money well spent.
I like it that it’s made in Canada and not on a container ship crossing the Pacific.
Amen buddy
Здравствуйте. Очень хорошая вещь и помощник в строительстве. Жаль что в России то кого не купить. Удачи вам в строительстве.
Do they make bags oriented for left hand dominant?
“ She’ll hear you “ 😂😂
If I did more framing I would definitely consider getting one of those belts but I’ll stick to my cheap belt, no sense on buying a good belt of it’s just gonna hang on the wall of my shop lol the belts look awesome tho
Oh for sure you have to do what makes sense
Would this set up be good for framing and building thts a real nice set up
I think it’s great for framing. I do more decks than framing but it hasn’t let me down yet
Whts tht set up called and how can I get it
Glad I found your channel, you will get big. Stay fun!
Nice tool bag
What size belt pad did you go with?
Hey bud, what tape measure is that
Do you find that your fasteners fall out of the side bags when you bend over or put the bag down?
@Remarkable woodworks
Great Bealt Tool Poutch 😉👍🏽🔨🪚✏️📐
thanks buddy!
hello I wanted to ask you how long it takes to send the tool bags
Did you add handles too? If so is that for hanging the bags up when your not using the suspenders? Putting together an order for when the shop opens today, thanks for the video!
ah shit! sorry I missed this Jordan! did you end up getting the handles on your bags?
@@RemarkableWoodworks Hey no problem! I didn't end up getting the handles, I just hang my bags up by the suspenders. Great tool belt!
Hows the weight. I do highrise formwork and rough framing on the side and my occidentals get heavy in the rain and snow. Tried going with nylon bags but I always prefered leather.
The weight is probably going to be the same as you OL. But I find the belt pad and suspenders to help A LOT.
@@RemarkableWoodworks ok thanks for the info

@@leoncrandall2552 oh nice. Gonna take a look into the HR bags
Get a diamondback they are water resistant, lightweight, durable, made in America. The hammer holster is also worth getting diamondback
Really dig your videos Mark!!! As for the toolbelt, the Lmini, do you find opening the top large bag (The one with the loops inside) big enough to carry and access lets say 3" screws? Cheers!
I’m sure you could but it would be annoying trying to get them out. Strip nails for sure but I wouldn’t recommend loose screws
@@RemarkableWoodworks Thx for the input Mark!!!
how much does that setup weigh?
Im a sheetrock hanger,does tool.pouches does work fore?
I want a pouch for my power drill. They have that?
I'ts been 2 years but i need to see you squat down in that belt, i don't want to have to be taking my belt off wehn working in low spaces where I have to crawl or squat
What’s ur hammer ??
How much you spend on this rig roughly?
How much is an average framer rig?
Leather pouches! 👍🏻
My god how much does all that weigh?
My back would really hurt
That intro was golden! 😂

How much was it?
First video I have seen from this channel, that intro was hilarious
Well I’m glad someone other than myself found it enjoyable! Thanks for watching! Really appreciate it.
Still looks bulky to me, but that's individual. Looks damn fine though!
Appreciate it man. They are 2” smaller than the other set up
I wish I could talk to Luke I hav a good idea for a different type of belt
Just reach out to him on IG
Only thing you’re missing are loops to hook on your air compressor and hose! Microwave hook on the back would be great too!
hey dad
Hey son
Too bad they close their website 😢 guess I'll have to order from someone else
Please send me one of those belts...
Occidental finisher is this not better than this custom made belt because the waiting and order way is not what inlike
I’m not a fan of the hammer holders of the OL belts
@@RemarkableWoodworks I have the O.L finisher rig. I like it apart from the leather hammer loop and the lack of a slot for a mini speed square. The leather hammer loop should be inclined to the rear, 👍🔨🇮🇪
Bro idc who tf you are.. But you ain't carrying no fkn stud finder in your belt lmao
