Maxlvledc is a channel dedicated to exploring the tools we carry every day. I will be discussing bags, flashlights, knives, multitools, pen, wallets, key organizers, pry tools, functional clothing, watches, electronics, and much more. Because I also love to modify these items, there will be videos on tools such as screwdrivers, pliers, scissor, wrenches, and power tools.
I try to read every comment so pls feel free to ask any questions below! Thanks for stopping in!

The play in a tape measure is for accuracy in both inner and outer measurements. The play in the end is the thickness of the metal. When doing a outside measurement, you normally "hook" the end to something, like a board and get an accurate measurement. When you change and put the end on the inside, say up against a wall, now you are off, but since the play is the thickness of the metal, your inside measurement against the wall is now accurate.
And I thought that everyone figured this out for themselves
And not all tape measures are created equal.
Roughly, yes. But what is the spec for how much movement every single tape has to have to get that consistent measurement, no matter what tape you use? Just because there are videos about this all over, does not make it an industry standard. Some tapes move less, some tapes move more, some don't move at all. So if you're going to have to figure out how you're a tape measures, every time you get a new one, does it really matter that it moves on the end?
Engagement farming
Harbor freight needs a mini version of that pliers wrench for EDC!!! Game changing
Irwin is the inventor and best at making the vice pliers
Thank you for pointing out the reasons I need at least three of same tool my friends and family say I have a disease or addiction
We need to unite!
The tape measure has play to adjust the distance depend on whether you but the measure up to the gap or hook it over the gap. The play is the same distance as the width of the metal on the end that hooks on to stuff
Cooler is definitely a solid option. Especially a made in USA igloo.
I think the tape measure end moves to compensate for the thickness it has!
I think it's for when you hook it to something like the end of a plank instead of pushing it against a surface, wall...
For me, that 50% premium for the Knipex pliers wrench is absolutely worth it. My tool buying decisions do take into consideration passing them on to my son, so that’s a key factor.
I agree, but not everyone does
I agree with the concept but as a DIY-er, not making money with any of my tools, I go with the concept of buy cheap to mid range tools and I'm allowed to buy the premium one if I used the cheaper one to the point that it needs replacement. It allows me to expand my arsenal while also not overpaying for things I won't extract value from. It also allows me to pick the best premium tool that fits how I used the tool since I learned what I want while using the cheaper version. Having 2 different tools to do more is more valuable than having one good tool when DIYing
@@MagicBrownMan That makes great sense. Everyone has to find a balance between what they want a tool to do and how much they’re willing to pay for it. I already had a bunch of tools (some great, some not so great) before I started (slowly) adding more premium tools into the mix, which also allows me to be patient and wait for deals.
The Milwaukee is the winner for me between the two. The action, the dual bit, and the blade storage help it beat out the Klein.
I got like 5 of those fastbacks I use at work, but that Klein comes in handy when doing light work around the house. Mainly for that removable bitholder. Btw next time you're at Lowe's, you should check out their clearance section. They actually have a lot of good, ridiculously discounted tools there. Last time I was there they had a varitey of Wiha pliers on clearance. Nice vid as always Dom and happy father's day bro!
The reason the tape measures tips have play is simple...
When pushing the tape measure against a wall per-se, the tip will be pushed in.
When hooking the tip over a 2x4 to pull the tape measure along it to measure its length... the tip will pull out that ⅛"
This is to account for the thickness of the metal hook/tip at the end of the tape measure.
Side note: most tape measure housings that hold the wound up tape are exactly 3". So you can math out how wide a room is without bending the tape & guessing the exact measurement
The Milwaukee actually runs on brass washers
Wow
Just a word of advice from someone who works with the locking pliers a lot. They are often referred to channelocks as that is the name of the company which makes the best ones
The small hammer looks interesting, and as a coincidence I just finished my victorinox compact mod replacing the corkscrew with the screwdriver!
I definitely hear what you said about multitools and agree, but I also don’t know any dad that would be upset with a plain old Victorinox Tinker that you can get for ≈ $30 at any Walmart, Dicks, or Ace Hardware. Whether it’s going in the kitchen drawer or night stand drawer or center console or work bench… or they actually work it into their regular use system… just feel like a knife made in Switzerland has a powerful wow/cool factor and for only $30ish you can’t beat it.
True true
Buy the cooler and send it to me!! I blame you for some of my more recent knife and tool purchases
Fastcap measuring tapes, especially if you use a regular pencil. (More for carpenters than framers) The throw distance on this one is impressive though.
I like the tough built that's similar to the fastback. It's heavier but has a button lock screwdriver too that makes the one handed operation easier.
The klein knife with bit driver and the Milwaukee equiv are made by the same manufacturer for each brand.
in Colorado Springs HD is usually LESS expensive than Lowes...
PS--LOVE these tool videos.
Love using channel locks for taking off oil filters when I'm doing oil changes. The hart ones are awsome because they open so wide!
I never in my life thought I'd ever hear anybody praise Hart. Their hand tools must be good because their power tools are hot garbage lol
@beardedslavbrew615 Yes, 100% agree that HART power tools are GARBAGE! hand tools are a little better
Well considered as always. Thank you for the great work you do.
Rural king carries Milwaukee as well.
My dad has that same klein knife... & he absolutely loves it!
The play in that millwaukee is 3-4x too much. But its so you can butt the tape up to something and have the same measure as when you hook the tape on something and stretch it out.
Cooler by itsself meh
Yeti or Yeti Knock off... gets my attention
Cooler filled with Cold and GOOD beer (or stiffer).... NOW we are talking!!!!!
Facts!
Bro, the tape measure play is to account for the thickness of the tab so you can press it up against something or pull away from something to measure length both inside or outside of corners.
Cheap Coast lights don't come w/ rechargeable lithium batts so not great value. But $35-80 ones do, while not tactical throwers, they are durable and have flood and throw. Good value auto or rescue lights
If only the big box stores in our country has that varied selection my EDC would have been done a long time ago.
Tractor supply company sells 300lumen lights at the register fir $3. And they dont have a wierd UI.
The only decent flashlights you are going to find at a big box store are streamlights.
The only reason I prefer the Milwaukee over Klein utility knife, is the Klein does not have a built in flathead. Only phillips.
Great choices!
I’ll always be a Milwaukee guy. The 1505 is a beast. But that Klein is a pretty good knife. I must admit.
Leatherman not having Father’s Day deals or discounts is crazy
Get the cooler and review it! It's for science 😂
To compensate for the thickness of the end hook (inside outside measurements).
Dom, BUY THE COOLER!; you know you're going to love owning it.
The Milwaukee cooler is nice, however I would steer you to the toughbuilt cooler before making the final decision. Seems to be built better and a more manageable size for daily carry, but way over priced like the Milwaukee.
The tape measure has play because it has to move in to but the end to a surface and move out to hook on the end, so it's the correct measurement. It moves to the thickness of the hook end thing.
Yep, it's to compensate for the thickness of the hook. I found this out after the video was made. Thanks for explaining!.
@maxlvledc it's also good to calibrate your tape measure using a ruler or yard stick, because that hook can loosen over time and add a 16th/mm or more to your measurements.
Im gonna buy myself something for fathers day because I gotta be a dad. There's just no F'n way.
Don't want to force you to spend your hard earned money but that packout cooler is pretty sweet looking!
Everyone is listing the same point for the tape measure “ to help accuracy” but the main reason is to help it stay hooked on.
Everyone’s hands twitches or moves no ones is 100% stable, if there was no play the hooking action would be much worse as it gives no room for error/adjustment and would slide off almost immediately at the slightest movement of the hand or tape measure.
There are no bearings on the fastback Milwaukee it's washer
Wow!
I'm not sure what (WOW)means, I'm just telling you the facts about the Milwaukee fastback It doesn't run on a bearing system You're the one that said it did,I'm just telling you how it is, I checked the parts diagram there's no bearings in this tool@@maxlvledc
Milwaukee
does the klein double ended bit (with ball) work in the milwaukee fastback? i think that would make me grab it
I’ll miss the premiere cause I’ll be at work
All good! I just made it earlier to most vids
get the cooler.
Lennox has a plies wrench that's about 10 inch, but it's advertised as 3inch wide that I like for wide nuts and plumbing. I actually got that for my Dad, because he accidentally took mine home with him. I am going to trade mine for his new 1. 😆 🤣 😂
The reason a tape measure has play is because all work and no play makes johnny a dull boy.
Dammit... no links.
It's all last minute in store stuff...not a video for buying online
I disagree, its really easy to have too many coolers. theyre bulky and take alot of space
Knipex clones
So why will TH-cam not let me like your video
Didn't get notifications.
Wierd, do you have them turned on?
If you do reviews of tools and you do not know where the play is for stop doing what you do. You’re no tool expert.
