My Dad did HVAC for 50 years and passed suddenly in September. When I went to his house I right away grabbed his 12 point buck and his personal tool pouch. Going through the old mans tools has been one of the hardest but most rewarding things of my life. Buy good stuff so you can pass it down.
What do you guys think of this student built tool trailer? Also, stick around to the end to see what awesome setups the boys are rocking with their tool belt tours
They did good I went with Metal Table and shelves that fold up , down and or lock in place had friends that worked in that field .Have a few electrical things but need to button up the solar items
I like the way they guys get to use their own judgment about their tool belts and their involvement with the trailer. I also like that they make adjustments when they see something that works for someone else that proves to be something of value
Great trailer set up with no wasted space. Students tool belt are set up for just about anything they may need or come across. Great to see the next generation of carpenters ready to get to work.
Watching all the tips they had for the trailer is really neat, like you said, looking for the best idea for each job site! This College was well deserving of all the tools, you know for sure they will all be put to excellent use!!
I read the entire Ryan's th-cam.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 Plans and was able to make a shed plan. Using Ryan's Shed Plans alone, the shed itself is great. Where I wish I knew more is with respect to ground preparation and foundations. Maybe that's beyond the scope of Ryan's Shed Plans.
I just enrolled in this program, I met Cory last week! He told me this story and I saw the trailer in person. Awesome work and I’m super excited to begin this next chapter in my life.
I am so excited to get to work with you Chris! Thank you for enrolling in my program at Iowa Lakes! I'm looking forward to giving you a great experience and a lot of info throughout your time at Iowa Lakes!
We need more young kids are students in the trade it doesn't matter if it's HVAC plumber electrician Carpenter it doesn't matter we just need more in this trade to keep it going to build a better country I've been doing this for 32 years and I absolutely love it
That’s really an amazing trailer setup, Great job!.. and what really impresses me is seeing these young men learning a very valuable trade skill set that most college kids are completely clueless about. Kudos boys! 👍
Thank you so much! That really means a lot to hear! I am very passionate about Construction and love to help build them grow their passion for it as well!
I think everyone should get a new Martinez Hammer with the color of their choice. I bet Mark would totally be game to get these guys hooked up. This is really cool to see and awesome job Kyle!
So you showed up cuz you did my man Diresta's shop, I have now binge watched the dream shop, and the Barndominium, and I am starting a savings account to see if I can get you to come back Upstate NY to build my dream shop (spoiler alert, it may be a hot minute!). Your attention to detail is second to none! I feel like I am watching a master course in building! Keep up the great work!
Anyone who has come up through the trades sees your kindness, fortunately for me my tools I received different kits as you rose up through 5 levels I went through. My dad once told me “learn a trade, you’ll never go hungry” how right he was. Now retired with both a license as an electrician and pipe trades. Dad was right, I never ever went hungry.
Yeah a good laid out trailer plenty of storage ask for much better experience I have used or had a trailer the same one since 1996 can I do interior trim work and it worked flawlessly
WOW, I'm glad they won! Looks like a great trades school. I wonder if they purchase the land and sell the buildings after they develop the land. I would!
We don't do any spec work Robert. All the houses we build are for someone. It helps in multiple ways. It keeps the college out of the financial aspect of it. It also allows the students work directly with the home owners to design the project. It also is great when the owners stop on site during the build as I have the students run those conversations so they help develop their soft skills.
@@coreymenning It sounds like your contractors then and make money like a contractor does as well as the students tuition. I didn't go to a trades school and didn't know that there was a thing. I also didn't know about the union either till I had a few years under my belt. I started digging ditches and cleaning up trash on the job, showing up on time with a positive can do attitude, lunch packed, dressed properly, avoided making too many mistakes and worked my ass off to bring value to my employer so that he would say, I'll see you tomorrow. I started very young during high school in the summer time and then went full time. At 19 years old I purchased my first peace of raw land and also got a very used travel trailer for $350 that I parked on the property and lived in instead of paying rent. Then on the nights and weekends I designed and built my home debt free all by myself except for on concrete days. I sold that home and did it again and again. It was just my boss and myself building homes from the ground up so I was able to learn all trades. Every waking moment of the day I thought about construction. I had a burning passionate desire to learn it fully. I would often stay behind on the job after my boss left to check things out more clearly and try to learn. When I was 23, I went on my own. It's a great career and I think you live longer than someone that has a desk job.
@@robertlaird6746 that's awesome man! I wish we made money like a contractor. We get a small percentage of the cost of materials as a building fee. That helps pay for some of the field trips we take as well at tool maintenance or replacement. The main thing we get is valuable experience for our students. I built my own home at a young age as well. My dad was a contractor so I grew up around it and always loved it. To this day I'll run into people around town who tell me that my dad was the best in town and that I was fortunate to learn from the best! I love passing my passion on to my students! Nothing better!
@@coreymenning My dad was also a contractor and did quality work. When you build for others, don't the customers pay the going rate and if so, than your school makes that money. It just seems like a profitable business is what I'm basically asking.
@@robertlaird6746 no they don't pay a labor rate. Right now the duplex we are building is owned and being financed by the Emmetsburg Community Development Corporation. They are acting as the general contractor. They will end up paying us a small fee that is a certain percentage of the materials cost. That's enough to cover our overhead. The main goal is the experience for my students.
Add Protection for piece of mind Insurance for tool theft and your Trailer attached to your general Liability insurance .. They got me 2 weeks ago in Park City Ut Nice area in and out quick cost me 3 k But i,m good I have coverage Cash replacement no prorate
Hey RR was it you that featured the CAND C cut out Milwaukee locking plates out of wood that secure the bottom of a case to the floor or wall 🎉. I want to make shelves that lock on to the bottom of the cases If it wasn’t your channel … Do you know who it might be. Thanks for your help
Young Cole's belt is really something else. I've been tossing up what belt set up I should get next to replace my cheap chinese Taurus copy, was looking at a Milwaukee suspended setup, but I really like the idea of having quick release pouches so if you're working on a floor or doing flashings on a roof you can just set the bag down to the side and work on it without everything digging into your obliques. Can we get more details on what he has and where to buy them? Also he made the right choice with the Milwaukee 17oz hammer, they got it right with that one, the 19 and 22oz short handle hammers are balanced way wrong IMO, to the point I threw mine out the window into a culvert going down the highway and bought a 19oz Estwing long handle framer to replace it
@@chrismcdonald1508 Well shit, it turns out I can buy that locally. Might have to order in a few extras though, my back isn't too great so the suspenders will be on the list for sure
During the 2008 great recession a lot of construction workers switched professions resulting in a mass worker shortage we experienced in the last 5 years. We will loose more this time around as construction workers are tired of being the sacrificial lamb when it comes to the economy. The government is thinking they are going to get a reset in home prices will be disappointed that their goal fails. During the last recession the housing market overbuilt the supply and was brought down buy the failure of sub prime mortgages. This time around there was a severe shortage of new homes and was only slowed by increased interest rates. The demand is still there but people are waiting it out for interest rates to fall or we get use to paying more interest on the loans. When the market turns the supply will already be behind the demand and will be built with less workers in the industry causing home prices to escalate even more than they did in the last couple of years. So all of this pain will be for nothing. I was a Framing contractor and a home builder for 40 years and it makes me extremely happy to see someone as yourself teaching and passing the torch to younger people. Keep up the good work.
Kyle, I am so happy to see you doing well. That program seems similar to "mine". keep up the good work in Iowa. as we say here "the Best social service plan in the world is a job!"((summit academy oic)mpls, mn). Train for a better future for all. Iowa lakes, if you could send plans for that trailer build ...

My condolences. Losing a loved one is F’n hard

Refreshing and inspiring to see our next generation of doers. Thanks Kyle.

Great trailer set up with no wasted space. Students tool belt are set up for just about anything they may need or come across. Great to see the next generation of carpenters ready to get to work.
Looks good.. very smart with the solar system. Kyle you should look into EcoFlow solar system for your trailer..
Dang this video made me smile so big inside. God Bless you guys!
That belt with detachable bags! So handy for getting in and out of equipment. Now I need one.
I thought it was pretty cool
Watching all the tips they had for the trailer is really neat, like you said, looking for the best idea for each job site! This College was well deserving of all the tools, you know for sure they will all be put to excellent use!!

Thank you for highlighting this trade school and the guys here - outstanding to see!
Good to see the young guys getting into the trades. The country need more like you. I like that clip on /unclip belt, could come in very handy.
I LOVE my toughbuilt belt. Being able to clip the pouches on and off as needed is so nice. And great for storage and for having multiple pouch setups.
I just enrolled in this program, I met Cory last week! He told me this story and I saw the trailer in person. Awesome work and I’m super excited to begin this next chapter in my life.
I am so excited to get to work with you Chris! Thank you for enrolling in my program at Iowa Lakes! I'm looking forward to giving you a great experience and a lot of info throughout your time at Iowa Lakes!
So great to see our youth moving in a positive direction! We need more Trades persons in this world! Bravo!!!!
Nice to see a school preparing young people for a with skills they can use their whole life
Thank you for supporting the younger guys!
So glad they won. Those tools are going to affect so many more people than you planned.
Great place to donate all those tools. They will be well used.
Thank you! They are being used and loved!
The instructor knows his stuff! Caleb is going to make it!!
Thanks man! That really means a lot!
We need more young kids are students in the trade it doesn't matter if it's HVAC plumber electrician Carpenter it doesn't matter we just need more in this trade to keep it going to build a better country I've been doing this for 32 years and I absolutely love it
Also the belt unclipping is great for us commercial guys when we need to have a harness on!
yes for sure, im a commercial builder and i dont need too many pouches
Been using the tough built belt for over a year now and I love it. Don't think i'll switch till another company does the clips.
That’s really an amazing trailer setup, Great job!.. and what really impresses me is seeing these young men learning a very valuable trade skill set that most college kids are completely clueless about. Kudos boys! 👍
Thank you so much! That really means a lot to hear! I am very passionate about Construction and love to help build them grow their passion for it as well!
Props to you Corey for educating the next generation. Fires me up!!
I took a full page of notes on stuff I'm going to add to my trailer haha😂
Thank you so much! That means a lot! Let me know if you've got any questions. Good luck on the trailer build!
I run a tough built as well. You can get extra belt clips and mount them to a wall and clip your belt up for storage
Love seeing these young men learning the trades
I think everyone should get a new Martinez Hammer with the color of their choice. I bet Mark would totally be game to get these guys hooked up. This is really cool to see and awesome job Kyle!
That would be a dream come true! My guys and I would be in heaven!!!
Sticker wall is a must on every tool trailer
I would've put mine next to Kregs.... 😁
It great that they take safety serious. Noticed the SDS library right at the door, with the first aid kit.
Great deal! You made a lot of guys happy! 👌👍
Probably the best person to win this giveaway 👍🏾👍🏾
Wow that's a wonderful to hear! Thank you so much, that really means a lot!
@RRBuildings- cool ! What's your telegram
Huge Occidental fan, but the removable bags were pretty cool also.
So you showed up cuz you did my man Diresta's shop, I have now binge watched the dream shop, and the Barndominium, and I am starting a savings account to see if I can get you to come back Upstate NY to build my dream shop (spoiler alert, it may be a hot minute!). Your attention to detail is second to none! I feel like I am watching a master course in building! Keep up the great work!
Great post Kyle, awesome for the students. Nice layout
That toughbilt belt is sick… 1 bag per type of job,
And you can put em down and be able to reach, freaking genius…. I want that…
Great setup those gents have, sounds like a great program!! Congrats fellas!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate that!
I love the Tough Built tool belt system. Me and my guys use the smaller pouches.
Amazing setup and well thought out! Gave me tons of ideas!
Well done guys. Awesome video and love hearing you and Greg talk about your story.
Anyone who has come up through the trades sees your kindness, fortunately for me my tools I received different kits as you rose up through 5 levels I went through. My dad once told me “learn a trade, you’ll never go hungry” how right he was. Now retired with both a license as an electrician and pipe trades. Dad was right, I never ever went hungry.
Great video guys !!!! Keep up the good work !!!!!
That toughbuilt belt seems really cool. I am going to look into that I am not a contractor but for at home that would be awesome.
Very well done!
Yeah a good laid out trailer plenty of storage ask for much better experience I have used or had a trailer the same one since 1996 can I do interior trim work and it worked flawlessly
Good job on ESSDEEESS and 1ST aid kit. Watch safety police on the exposed Romix feeding outlets tho . Hope it helps. Shore power fullows inEC...
Safety Third, someone's been watching/listening to Mike Rowe 😆

Just by some packouts, they open & close easier & lock & look way better
Great video again Kyle. Thank you. 👍😁
Drooling over this setup
Thanks man! Took a lot of planning and talking things over before we actually built and wired it.
@@coreymenning My dream is having a mobile production studio built into a trailer like that.
@@ShaggyMummy that would be cool!!
Bro, that’s a good idea adding that diamondback hammer holster to your oxy’s
I put an occidental strong hold belt with my diamondback bags
Dig the video... Thanks for sharing 👍
Great video!
That's an awesome setup! And congrats to the young men who won the tools...go build some cool $hit!
Cool Tool Tuesday!
Add Protection for piece of mind Insurance for tool theft and your Trailer attached to your general Liability insurance .. They got me 2 weeks ago in Park City Ut Nice area in and out quick cost me 3 k But i,m good I have coverage Cash replacement no prorate
Great advice!
Great information guys!
Thanks to you, I'm studying a lot
Keep it up gentlemen!
The future!!!
Awesome video
Put your levels in downspouts that's what we do with a piece of sill seal on bottom
Well done
Did you ever get to weigh it ? I'm curious to know what the trailer weighs loaded.
Awesome!
How are they attaching the diamonback hammer sleeve to the occidental.
Safety third. 100%

Nice Job ...
