Many different designs for each type of project are also included. For example, there are hundreds of designs th-cam.com/users/postUgkxb2mhCug-GkCWrq69Ce2I0nM0D4QpxAqu for outdoor buildings, from small sheds all the way up to a complete stable. Choose whatever type of shed or storage house is right for you. Pick from fancy ones or more utilitarian designs.
One thing I learned from the old guy at EC and have incorperated into my belts is to always have your tape and marking items on opposite sides. That way you can pull out both at one, each in the ready hand and ready to mark! Every since that video I swear it has sped up my productivity to the point the Italians I work with have picked up on it and are currently doing it now without even asking me. The fluidity of it alone is not thought about but easily spotted and once someone sees how fast you measure and mark and are onto the next layout or cut.... they are envious lol
Ok so Jono and Jaime are rigged for doing framing, trim, and general carpentry. They were doing trim the previous day on one job and framing a deck the next. We do almost everything OURSELVES on our jobs from pouring footers, to tiling showers , to building custom cabinets. Basically our usual toolbelt set up is a combination of a framer and trim belt set up so that we can tackle ANY task. Hope this is helpful and fun for you guys!!
That's the way to be man. I built my own house, dig the hole, poored the foundation, framed, sheeted, all metal siding, u know the rest. I did hire a guy to hang sheetrock because I couldn't handle 12' rock by myself.
FYI, I was 25 when I done that.
I mean.. the wee little flat bars and the kreg bit kinda gave it away :)
I applaud the dude who found a legitimate use for the pencil hole in the Oxy chisel sheath.
I did the same thing with mine when I got it.
Best tool belt tip I've ever heard is to keep all of your small driver/drill bits in a Altoids tin to keep them organized. I use it every day
Yep that’s really a good one.. thanks
Or Buy a cheap yoga foam block on Amazon and cut it with a heated sharp knife to be in the shape of one of your small pouches. Then pre drill 3/16 holes neatly wherever you want your bits. Always organized and they never fall out.
@h2s I'm a new construction plumber. I agree on the pill bottle. I carry an Advil bottle to hold my cutter wheels. I'm the only guy on the crew not losing his wheels.
Just get the little dewalt bit case with snap lock and has a clip. Although I just keep mine in my little pouch of my occidentals
Nice practical setups in my honest opinion. Great video. I'm starting to dig those small units on your strong side where a bag would normally go. You carry what you need there. With a traditional tool pouch you tend to overload it because you have the extra room. Stuff you won't use all week.
And we all know that ounces equal pounds.
I appreciate your videos man- easy to learn from and fun to watch
Love these videos! Been binge watching and learning a lot from you guys. Went through the build from start to finish of the mountain getaway "tweener". I am just in awe of those mountain views and the one in this vid here. Wow! Enough to make me want to move to west NC from the PNW; which is another gorgeous area.
I really like Jono setup I had my bags set up about like Jaimes then after falling and breaking my back because of my tape measure being right at the center of my lower spine I had to almost completely stop wearing bags just became the cut man 99% of the time.
Another great video men.
Just found your channel recently. Love your videos. From NC also but I’m not lucky enough to be building in the mountains. Beautiful view!
Nevermind wrapping my hammer, chiseling is the way to go!
May even get crazy and lay out a pattern to engrave with the rotary tool!
Too tired at end of day carrying all that. 30' fat Max tape, hammer,, speed square, pencil, sharpie, utility knife, scribe, multi bit screw driver. AND a nice conveniently located table for about 30 things I like close by but don't carry. 61 y o.
Great videos guys, the right crew makes it fun.
Wow! Thanks for the tool count on that :-) you’re exactly right about the crew makes the difference… We are super blessed to have a bunch of great guys and I actually look forward to going to work.
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers
Forgot chisel 3/4" and nail sets, big and little ride in the bag. Over here we call it the misery bag but you don't make any money unless you're wearing it.
Thanks for the tip on the chisel guard. Ear and protection very important, keep up the great work !
That is quite a prestigious project you guys are doing there. Excellent tool belt set ups. Nice to see brothers working together like that. That part of the video I liked the most.
So much fun watching and learning. New subscriber.
Thanks for sharing this. And may I add, where you all build homes have some breath-taking scenery. PEACE!!
I have a tool bag where I keep everything I might put in my occidental bags that day for whatever I’m doing and outfit it in the beginning of the day. Two different Tajima boxes (permanent or temp thin line) finish or framing estwing hammer, different size punches, a host of tools/wrenches/pliers and of course my trusted makita impact (although I handled the Milwaukee 12v and will probably get one soon due to weight and shape.)
Glad to see the Toughbuilt suspenders $10 at Menards. I bought it to hold up my Diamondback Denali framer normally $500 paid $300 new on eBay. I also like the Milwaukee line box $8 at Depot. Along with the Swanson always sharp pencils.
A $500/$300 dollar what. And will it automatically park itself?
I have been using the same caulk lings for years. Mine are set up with black, flo green for old dark wood and orange. IMO they are the best on the market.
My takeaway was the idea to have multiple bit holders ready loaded. Losing & fitting fiddly bits is a pain (esp as I use Torx). Brill.
beautiful view pal thanks for share it keep your content greetings from Chile
Until now, no one has ever ever explained how important a well equipped tool is a 'must have' until now, fantastic video guy's 👏👏👏👏
Pretty much everything I carried... I had square stops too... I usually only wore suspenders in the winter, my coveralls didn't hold up the belt if I raised my arms... Sometimes a canteen, if I was going to be in the rafters all day.
Canteen...I like your style!
🤜🤛
I keep a stud 4 sure magnetic stud finder in my pocket with my small drill bits and driver tips takes up very little room and brings every bit out in one go otherwise that elusive torx bit that you need is the last one you poke out!
“Arms were not long enough”
I lol’d. 😂😂😂
Great video! Really nicely done
hi from 2021! look how much your channel has grown! always fun to rewatch
I enjoyed the tool belt tour, now let’s explore your lunch boxes.🍗🥨🍇🍎🥤
A few squares of folded tish tickets in the bottom of the leather Chisel pocket I've found works well to stop any cutting. 🇦🇺
Was expecting to see Jaime's fingers not being there and was surprised... this was before the accident.
Jono was half a bubble off...jk....I kid 😆. Good stuff. I have a pretty similar set-up. The thing is with most nail bags we carry so many different tools we have to improvise and modify so that everything has its place.
Tajima makes really great tape measures too !
nice video , I don't keep the pouch too heavy , all you need is a torpedo level , a measure tape and a square and knife and pencil , everything like pliers and hammers and wrenches else goes in the tool box . The tool belt is meant more for holding nails and screws than for holding tools , its more of a nail and screw holder , its not meant to hold a lot of tools
Nice belt and setup. When I was a builder in the Seabees from 70-74 I could have used that.
Thanks! Appreciate that.
That's good you still have the fancy hammer 😉
Damn those are some full heavy looking setups
Skull Candy Method Wireless headphones are a MUST. I can’t leave the house without it.
We have tried every brand of these thing and destroyed them all... skull candy has been one of the best!
Nobody carries a bag of M&M's in their tool apron? Lol... Most important thing is to have a snack in your apron.
ball boy jones I keep a big bag by the saw haha
I have a pocket dedicated to those Reece's bite size peanut butter and chocolate eggs. Gets mushy in the summer but then I just drink it lol
Same I have M&Ms in my tool belt and sometimes a bag of chips or a drink. 🤣
@@treehouseco4242 It's the only way to work lol
Off Road2000 yep
Just looking back at this video at 4:08 and hearing Jaime speak of sharp stuff just gets to me😞
I was thinking the same thing, love the channel and feel for the guy. Glad he has a positive attitude towards life and isnt letting it stop him from building stuff.
Jeeze dude
Hearing 6:44 again though made me laugh!
If you roll on a rubber handle, that will help with grip. I was able to find an old bicycle inner tube and roll on. I know it’s only a 14 and 16 oz hammer, it’s amazing the difference it makes. I also have carpel tunnel and other nerve damage, my grip isn’t what it used to be.
Very cool idea.. thanks
I wrapped my Stiletto’s wood handle with cloth grip tape. Picked up at contractor’s tool store. Retail stores have it in first aid aisles too.
Loren Rickey how does the cloth grip hold up in rain and snow?
@@donmartin7728 tape has been on for over a year. I haven't exposed it to heavy rain amd no snow. Mostly clear weather only. When I bought the tape it was advertised on the package for hammers, bats and tennis rackets. I really like how it works. Check sporting goods stores for friction tape for bats, hockey and sports tape.
Loren Rickey I’ll check it out. Unfortunately my equipment is exposed to all forms of inclement weather. I spend a little extra time cleaning and caring for it all.
Hey jaime... husky makes a drill hook attachment for your tool belt
Holy heavy loads...I would hate framing with all that
Can you fit a leather man st300 in the occidental oxy sheild?
Good job...I watched it 3x
Them suspenders need a Trim, i had to literly like my man Stitch some stuff so they can be more reachable xD,
good stuff,
Hammer time!!
Great video, Jamie and I basically have the same setup other than I have a Estwing rip claw and Oxy Light bag. I'd like to work with you guys for a day or 2!
Logan Woldridge you must be a REAL TOOL GUY too🤘. Thanks
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers I have lots of tool that I inherited from my Grandpa and father, Dad was a carpenter. I'm a jack of all trades and master of none, carpentry is my most favorite work. Thankful I can do it for a living and be self employed. 💪🏼
@Perkins Builder Brothers , love the channel. I also live in western NC and well I'm a kinda bargain hunter and I wear a Husky dual bag with harness. Swing a Estwing 22oz, 35' Milwaukee tape, 10 Estwing catpaw, klien dikes, Milwaukee torpedo level Milwaukee chalk line which I must say is the best chalk line I've ever used, and of course my little DeWalt bit box with all my bits and a Milwaukee speed square it has scribes up to 6" love it, also 1.25 ace hardware chissel.. then on top of that a handful of 8 inch pole barns. That's a real nail.
It’s funny how everyone has their own set up and ways they deal with things, I’ve got an impact holster on my right back, an extra hoop left back, and two large pouches on the sides with a bunch of pockets, hammer has to be lower right, tape lower front left and my phone has it’s own pocket right on my right hip, as boss mans right hand man that’s almost my busiest tool some days lol
I always wear my nail bag and fill it up....it makes look like I'm doing something.
Lmao
“”Our trucks are way down on yonder side of mountain””, we must ruck sack all tool generator and air compressors on our backs up and down hill 6 miles a day.
Next frame truck parked at front door of house lol.
Ok... point taken. My truck was where I was pointing.
Just giving ya a hard time lol. Liked the vid
What type of air chuck is that? Seems compact and easy to have in the tool belt.
Good video, I carry everything that y'all carry. Plus a inch and a half layout square. How about nails?
excellent
Jaime’s chalk line looks like a grenade.😂
Man I keep way more tools on mine and I was looking for this video to see what else I can add because I always feel like I’m missing something
Where can I get the magnetic bit holder to clip to your suspenders like that? Do you have a link?
My belt changes drastically for what I’m doing sometimes I’m set up to mend fence or repair horse stalls or work on the house I can’t believe how much belts have gone up in price
Check out the Irwin double sided 3 inch bit.
Nice video
Just caught Jones setup what belt is he running.. ps thx guys I have been doing alot of jobs on my own and needed a belt setup to help me stop losing my speed square etc .. thx for sharing .. but I gotta know what belt does John have it looks like an occidental but ..
What a beautiful location
What brand of tool pouch does Jono have on his left side where her keeps his catspaw and drill bit extension? I really like the small hand tool loops inside the bigger pouch and could use those. I can never seem to find anything like a combination between an electricians & carpenters tool pouch. Where did he get that from?
I’m pretty sure it’s also Occidental (Oxy) Leather. I am in route to work so I will ask him and get back to you if that’s not right. Thanks
Good content, very helpful. Bit off topic but does anyone know the location of this site ? ( stunning view shown at beginning and end of video)
where do you put fasteners.....nails, screws etc ?
Someone needs to tell Jamie his hard hat liner is in backwards. The wide side of the brim goes to the back.
It's more important to be cool
@@randyrussell6246 lmfao!!! Truth..
Back in the 70s when my dad was a framer, I asked what he had in his tool belt....he said he had a cheap hammer, a glue stick, pack of cigs, an Old Style, and a dog turd for marking lines, said it worked better than a crayon
I'd give your comment a like if my dog didn't leave a steaming pile on the carpet this morning. Ugh.
@@danielszemborski nice....I remember my dad being late for work back in the 70s and stepping in dog shit in the front yard and smearing it half a mile down the block
Your dad sounds like a tough sob, what was the glue stick for?
@@MustardMade he used to sniff it
That may be a bit commando. Just because they now have super huge gigantic tool bages you don't have to carry every thing all the time. And a tool box is the best place to keep some of those tools. I even heard about a new thing, a tool box that has wheels and a handle. You can put more things in or on it than anyone could possably carry and take it right to where you are working.
I love how you americans take simple things seriously, here in Brazil I'm about the only person I know that uses one. Time is MONEY! Can't fool around with things like that.
What's a good set of suspenders to attach to a belt?
Can you guys also do a job site tool bag and toolbox organization video?
Looks like thunderheads blowing up when you gave the shot of where you guys were
Nice setups, like Jamie's hard hat.
Noticed the Toughbuilt suspenders. Did you have the entire Toughbuilt system? And if so, what are your thoughts?
Nice , how long did it take to get that custom home to the point its at in this video?
Was wondering what type of setup compressor, generator, couplings do you run on your projects? It looks like you do mostly custom homes, so I'm guessing your running a generator all day, would you recommend using battery operated framing Nailers, or use the compressor type of nailers?
Depends on how many batteries you have, if you have a big crew I would heavily suggest air nail guns, that frees up your batteries for other tools, sawzalls and drills ect. However if it's just you and maybe one other guy the battery operated nail guns may be your best option,
Buen video muchachos
Donde podre comprar un cinturon asi...soy de chile👍👍👍
Its weird seeing Jamie in a old clip with his original fingers haha. So used to his bionic super vingers now.
What is the kind of hard hat does Jaime have!
The leather belts get crispy,
The cloth ones loose their eyelets and fur up...8 years ago I swore I’d buy ONE that lasts forever...
I nailed it: at pawn shop found one of those old Klein lineman’s harness
Took a grinder to the 2 big rings up front....coolest belt ever
One problem =
I’m getting wider and down to one of the last holes! 🙄
But Finally a belt that you can not kill !
“Plus the metal Klein tag on the back is a great fashion statement 😎
You're supposed to condition your leather belts... then they last forever
@@pinchpeak5203 Klein belts still going strong as the day I cut it away from their annoying metal rings…
No conditioning required
Plus it still looks way more cool than all the predictable China made crap out there.
It’s truly a forever belt.
Outro was 10/10 😂 why wear mine out when I can just use theirs!
What is the hammer holder that Jamie has? Where can I get one?
The one with the chisel holder
Occidental Leather 5520 5 in 1 Tool Holder
Holy shit if I needed more tools I would invest in those suspenders. But I just have 1 big side tool belt. But I do everything from excavation, concrete, framing, roofing. But mostly I do finish work or decks. And my 20oz EST wing looks tiny compared to their hammers lol.
where do you buy the tool belts
A message to Jaime Perkins. I use the Skullcandy brand Bluetooth also. Best. They have a 2 year warranty on them! I wear out a pair every year. Boom, new pair for 10$....
Will pass along.. thanks. Definitely an important tool to keep your hands free that is VERY prone to damage in this line of work!
You don't need the big pouches for the odd random scree that you could pill out the screw box loving the minimalistic left side just get the Hamerton holder with extra pouches for the right and your sorted
Right, I would love to get one of them white tajima chalk lines but the US doesn't ship that one to the UK as it has chalk in the package. 😭😭😭
Bit late to this , but I got my Tajima chalk line like Jamie’s from Toolstation , but checkout TFTOOLS in England they have a range of Tajima chalk lines plus lots of other great tools
Damn lumber humpers....what u doing wit that klein stuff lol. Everybody loves our tools, electricians have the best toys lol.
Haha.. we like Klein tools too! Every now and then we get to turn a screw or nut off a wire
What brand of toolbelt does Jono have?
I just pulled a shoulder muscle ( deltoid) cause I have way too many tools which is supported by suspenders too. Lol I'm guessing my bags weigh like 40 lbs. My old boss used to say, " you can't find it, look in your 5th bag. I have I think all together 9 pouches. Lol At least I can say, " I got that".
I’m with you! I hate hunting for a tools., so just carry them all with ;)
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers lol. I think I've taken it too far though. As I put on heat for the pain from pulling a muscle. Where you guys out of?
Where does Jono keep fasteners?
Cool
Ive been following your channel for a few weeks now and I really enjoy it. I don't do too much new residential nowadays but in my early electrician day oh yeah, a lot of new residential. I can tell you guys build well just from the attention you pay to your tool pouches. I'll have to do a video on that too.
Thanks brother... send me link if you do
What's Jono"s tool belt and suspenders brand? Thanks. That's what I do myself one day framing, next day trim,cabinets,siding wherever it takes to bring food to the table
AWP Pouch
What is an air chuck / what is it used for in this context?
Good question… We hook it up to an airline to blow dust off of sheeting after cutting it. Dust on roof sheeting is instant death :-)
The only question I have is: are y'all hiring? Thanks for the awesome videos.
What’s jonos tool bag brand?
I watch these videos over and over, does it matter to click “like” over and over or just once? Does it help or confuse? I live in Black Mountain, NC the first video I saw I knew it was somewhere close because of the flora before I found out you’re just a little west.
What tool bag is this ? , thanks
I click just because I want to support the guy.
Tajima chalk lines are the best...the handle dosnt spin around when you pull out the line.
00:15 SUPER-INTENDENT MODELS
Why do you guys like the needle nose over slip joint or linesman
Lineman’s all day.
🤜🤛
I believe I saw unsharpen peincel when I was a cut man old man told me I had to come to work with 3 sharpened peinceles sharpen on your own time
