Nice load out & explanations. I carry a similar load out. I don’t carry a torch or gas anything in my bag anymore, because a lot of sits just wont allow it. For glue sticks I use a Bosch glue pen. I think here in the us you can get the same thing under the Dremel brand. A few months ago I upgraded my Klein flip sockets the version that has the 9/16. It good for opening quazite boxs. I also carry a miniware TS80P soldering iron with an m12 3.1mm jacket adapter to power the TS80P in my bag.
Intrigued by the tape! If I had a dollar for every time I got my phone out to double check my math on a half measurement to mount a device, I’d have probably been able to buy your load out. My boss and I are also Klein and Milwaukee guys, decent stuff for the money. Couple questions as you seem to be a seasoned pro and would have valuable input. Ever found strippers you like better? Those red Klein spring open and don’t lock which drives me nuts. I use the south wire red handled equivalent. I’d like to find a pair that goes down to 14awg. I find myself often enough stripping 16/2 for speakers but I also use a fair bit of 14/4 for audio feeds. I generally just blade strip it, which is a no no but if I cut a strand I’ll redo it. I cut in a lot of ceiling speakers and have yet to find a truly great Sheetrock saw. I just can’t get behind using a power tool for the holes, no matter how sure I am in my pokey stick check. I like to vacuum and cut at the same time, but in a whole home of 20 rounds it wears you out. The little magnetic stud magnet is super interesting as welll. It’s interesting that you don’t use punchdowns. I see your point about connecting points, but I also hate the thought of damaging the home run instead of a patch of it gets pinched in a scissor point or whatnot.
@@patrickheritage3111 Thanks for the comments. I’ve reorganized my Veto again, so it’s almost time for another video! As for the strippers, I couldn’t agree more. I like strippers that utilize a spring, but I can’t stand this pair that doesn’t have a clip. I ended up buying a pair of Milwaukee strippers that have a spring and a clip. They can strip the individual stands of cat6 as well as 12awg romex. Speaking of romex, I now keep a separate pouch just for doing light electrical, such as lighting control. For that I bought a pair of the blue Klein strippers because they had a fairly decent sized set of jaws that come in handy when I need to twist several pieces of romex together. This saved me from having to carry strippers and a pair of 9” pliers. They have a spring, but alas, no clip. The pros still outweigh the cons. As for the sheetrock saw, I leave cutting in speakers to the younger techs. I use mine for cutting in pop-in boxes, so I really don’t have a preference. My newest one is serrated on both sides. I’m still a fan of no patch panel. Again, the pros outweigh the cons, and I’d rather have fewer failed points.
Super jealous of the pack out gear. I’m pretty invested in the craftsman versastsck platform. It’s okay. Doesn’t drop things and clips together tight. But someday I’m gonna nail a big job and splurge on a setup and buy once cry once.
@@patrickheritage3111 love the Packout. My addiction, I mean collection, keeps growing. Seems like I have a Packout for everything, both work and personal.
