18 yr Commercial Electrician here.....Yeah, My Brunts wore within 4 months. Confirming the notion to stay away from social media trends. Right for the price but I'll stay with my Thorogoods.
I saw a video on Brunt work boots. They guy was very knowledgeable about boot construction. He cut them apart and basically thought they were cheaply made.
I have been interested in the. Brunt line but I think I’ll stick with Georgia Boot for now
Elechickens know f all
Thorogoods have become my go to brand ever since I got my first pair by happenstance, because our company gets a discount on them, and the company pays $80 towards work boots every year making them damn near free for me. They were the most comfortable work boots I ever wore. Had composite toe too, so it made them extra light. They lasted me almost 2 solid years, plus they look real nice too. Can’t recommend thorogoods enough to anyone looking for new boots.
@@pineapplesideways3820doesn't say a lot for the brand if a sparky can wear them out in 4 months 😂
I would love more videos of your projects at work like you used to.
Those are hard to do these days. Most of my work is indoors these days so I can’t hide 😜
@@FunkFPVquick question for you brother. How were you doing those attachments. Where they at your shop or you're going to Warehouse to Warehouse replacing these. If so how did you get around the hot work permits? Also I have one of those 90° die grinders at work they work great they do get a little temperamental when you start running them for some time the thermal overload gets a little wonky.
The best and most honest reviews on you tube, hands down. Thanks for taking the time to share and keep doing what you do!
Firstly, after that horror story, I'm glad to hear you're ok, still... sounded painful. Nearly lost a big toe wearing steel toe caps back in the day, not due to an accident, but due to the boot. Worn composite boots ever since and would never go back. Secondly, really appreciate your videos and your effort, your wisdom, and above all, your honesty, it's becoming increasingly difficult to trust people when it comes to such videos, over the years too many have sold out. I also admire the effort you put into engaging with and replying to the community that you have built up here, kudos... and finally a merry Christmas and a very happy and healthy new year to you sir.
Thanks bud. Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you too 😊
Oh geez. Your EPJ incident is exactly what happened to me when I was first starting at my job. I sprained 3 toes and broke a 4th. Watching your description brought the pain back all over again, haha. Glad you're ok my dude!
backing over ya own foot with the electric fork truck?? Yeah I rinsed my boot doing the same
Bought the Dewalt Gyro screwdriver on YOUR recommendation. Its my favorite tool in the work tool kit servicing food processing equipment! THANKS for the review and recommendation, agree 100%!!
You manage to call out BS, give well informed opinions, be inclusive, and you always come across as just wanting to educate people about tools and products the average American can get good use out of. Thank you, and have a great New Year
I’m a full time welder and so far, the best boots I have ever bought are from Bass Pro shop. There going on year 3 and they really don’t show much wear. Definitely a good pair 👍
Milwaukee grinder is amazing, does go through batteries but I have a lot so I don't mind. I put a Dimond cookie on mine and have been using it for 2 years now without a problem, I call the Dimond cookie the rust destroyer
The gyro's screw driver was the biggest surprise to hear. I've often looked at them as gimmicky will try one out now. And as people that work with their hands all day know the biggest compliment you can give something. Is "if it broke tomorrow I would buy another one" thanks And merry christmas to you and your family
I worked maintenance at an apartment complex and one of the best tools a bought was a Craftsman electric screwdriver. Mine does the swivel and it's a little cheaper then the DeWalt. It has an internal battery and there's no clutch. But like you said I never needed it. It's perfect for stuff like changing outlets or hot/cold valve cartridges for bathtubs. In one of the apartments the property manager wanted me to change every single outlet in the apartment. So having that little driver was a huge time saver. Not having to use my impact or regular drill was nice too. Having a smaller slower driver is just nice for smaller tasks. I highly recommend grabbing something similar in whatever your preferred tool brand is if they have one. The little Craftsman has served me pretty well.
Gotta say, having a replaceable battery in the screwdriver is a game changer. No more waiting for it to recharge is worth every penny.
@@warrenupchurch427 That is the only downside. Though charging it was never a problem. The battery lasts more then a day and as long as a remembered to charge it over night it wasn't really any different then keeping my drill batteries charged. But a swappable battery would be nice.
best tool in my collection is the spare bubble for my spirit level... lol
I keep 2 extra on the van
😜👍🏻
I've had the other version of the screwdriver for several years. It's awesome for tearing apart dashes.
Love the follow up. I appreciate when people actually use things!
For the dewalt the clutch is super nice for more sensitive work like electronics. I use mine for building PC's, repairing speakers, also swapping components in server racks. Im usually on 3 or 5 for the clutch so I dont squish things. Flipping between angled and straight has become a bit of a fidget toy. The only thing I have more control with than the gyro are my Snap-On with the analogue toggle style trigger, that may be since ive been using them over 10 years though...
Cordless angle grinders are really useful for me too. I'm going to look into a cordless die grinder, that thing is neat, and that screwdriver.
I could never go without a cordless grinder doing metal work...flap discs live on most of mine (I have a few in different sizes) as I don't do a lot of cutting with a grinder (usually my dry cut saw or portaband) but they're just so much more handy to grab for cleaning up before/after welding.
Why not use a corded one if youre doing work on a fixed place or a shop?
@@zaxmaxlax tripping over a cord...I have a few corded grinders too, but the cordless is so convenient and never in the way or tangled up on something. Usually for weld cleanup a single 5ah will last me a day of work in the garage. I will use the corded if I have a lot to do, or need more material removed (I have a big 7 inch as well)...but with 3 cordless, two 20v and one 60v, I'm not left wanting for corded much anymore.
Gotta have my 2 grinders, one with a cut off, one with a flap disk.
I love my little Milwaukee angle grinder. It’s handy af and mine has taken a beating. Another bonus which I didn’t think about when I bought it. When I’m using it at home and I need to do a lot of grinding. I can use it with a 6ah and do way more grinding than with my pneumatic because I don’t have a giant air compressor.
When I picked up the 8v screwdriver, the people at Lowe's had no idea they carried it. They now have it on display and sell out of it regularly.
Thanks Funk, I really enjoy your sense of humour.
Thank you 🙏🏻 😊
@@FunkFPV Have a beer on me
Fellow forklift mechanic here and I love the videos and shorts I wish you worked for my company. They pay for any and every tool you want no questions asked. Boots, all clothes you name it I’ve talked to multiple mechanics in multiple companies and our perks are insane you’d love it.
I only get boots and uniforms 😜
@@FunkFPV oh man! With your skill and knowledge you’ll get all the tools you want and more. I won’t say what company I’m with because UA-cam is to public for my liking but you’re in the business. We specialize in Bendi’s and cover the east coast. You might know where I work.
@jpnumbah1ify are you hiring? Lol. I currently work on MHE for a food distribution warehouse and am looking for a change.
Nice! I definitely wanna get one of those Milwaukee right angle grinders, seen them for awhile now and i could see it being handy for multiple purposes
Home Depot got a good deal on their website
@@pl3a5enophotoz ill definitely have to check that out, thank Yu!
Great vid Funk.
I use that gyro-driver all the time too. Fits in the back pocket.
There ya go! Thanks✔️
I was hoping you made a list like this ! Thanks Funk
Thank Funk for that
Shoegoo is one of the best products ever. I’m a cheap bastard selectively and I wear out shoes and boots like quick so I get another year out of em with the goo.
Great reviews man! Thank you!
I enjoy the long format
😎👍🏻
I love my cordless Dewalt tools, but the angle grinder is my least favorite, It really eats up batteries. I have a suitcase generator and will use that with a corded grinder and put a Dewalt battery on charge. And yeah that milwaukee die grinder is really nice, It's great for gasket and RTV removal and the more delicate deburing
I love the blue pedestrian lights.
Put one on our old Mitsubishi, made it new again!
I bet you’re a good welder 🧑🏭 better than before afterwards
You know somebody is putting a workboot through the proper paces when they're "only" criticism is having to dremel down the rivets
2023 is coming to a close! Now is the time to put your best foot forward!
Skateboarder?!! 😂
👍There you go!
You need to do a joint vid with Project Farm, his testing with your tool suggestions, be great.
They look good for cheap boots, not $350 Ariat, but , not bad on a budget .
Look good because they light I have big foot 🦶 12 and regular boot eventually I can’t even walk , I prefer boots but generally wear new balance
Ooof about the toes I had a similar experience recently, I was using a sledge to beat the wheels off a semi tractor and missed horribly and smashed my fingers between the wheel and handle. I really did not wanna take my gloves off to look lol. I was ok though just a little dent in the skin and a bruise and sore for a few days.
She's gonna be pissed you called her The Old, Old Lady. 👍🤣
She knows what she is 😜👍🏻
One thing to keep in mind regarding the dewalt screw driver. I believe they are discontinuing the 8v line. I’ve seen it mentioned on their site when they respond to comments along with other sites (Lowe’s/hd reviews) when people complain about not being able to get extra batteries. I’ve looked at Lowe’s around where I live, I cannot get their 8v batteries at all online, in store, or ordering to store. I really hope they will come out with a replacement, as the form factor is really nice, but I have held off on getting one due to the discontinuation of the line.
oh to clarify they have stopped development so you want see new tools but thats been for years already. The drive is that good. I snagged mine when Adam Savage used one building a nerf gun and never mentioned what it was I had to track one down. Drove to a Home Depot the next day!
You talking about the gyroscopic driver because that’s not going anywhere
@@RcPlayer-tt2vw I was talking about the 8-volt line as a whole and then the screwdriver. From my understanding they won't be building out the 8 volt line as originally intended but current tools are not going anywhere. Lack of accessibility is mostly lack of marketing and distribution since they're not making a whole line out of it. It's kind of a well-kept secret sort of tool
@@profosist I may have to give it a go then, next time I go to Lowe’s I’ll be sure to look for it, thanks!
The screwdriver with the clutch is big in rc , ya I use 12v Milwaukee with rc everyday , the clutch’s still too heavy , like you said you get a feel , I’m not sure I can get use to gyro switch though
So something I got that I want to tell people about is the Reebok composite toe sneaker. The insole isn't good, so look to getting a replacement when you buy it, but other than that I've had no issues or complaints.
Some places I go into don’t let you wear a sneaker style safety shoes. Not sure why for what I’m doing 🤷🏻♂️
Good footwear is essential. Especially considering how many man hour's a week i spend in them.
I had a similar injury happen with boots. Involving an extendable forklift on construction.
Not sure what u call them Stateside?
Not boots Funk. Forks. 😉😂
Those are called “telehandlers” I’m glad I don’t work on those anymore 😜
@@FunkFPV Enjoy your content. All the best from Scotland. 🇺🇸🏴
I switched to a corded harbor freight angle grinder due to going through batteries all the time. Only problem ive had with it is how squirly it is. You better have a grip on it or that sonnofabitch will grab you lol.
Glad you didn’t get a 10 on rate the toe from your pallet jack incident. The composite toe may have saved you from disqualifying your left toes from future ratings.
I wish I would’ve started rating toes earlier. Mine were a 7/10 for a week 😂
I have the gyroscoping dewalt auto driver with the clutch and the handle that moves and guess what?? I leave it on max torque and in the straight position like you have it LOL. The fact that you can control the speed with your hand, I’ve never changed the torque. I think I turned the handle 90 degrees once LOL. You’re not missing out! LOL
Haha that’s kind of what I figured 😜
with smaller stuff i use the clutch all the time usually using 3 or 5 so I dont crush electronics or strip out plastic or wood.
W
new camera?
Finally someone noticed 😜
Brunt is great but not for those who use a pressure washer and might end up hitting the boot it cuts through way too easy without so high of psi
I run the 60 volt batteries in my 20V dewalt tools when possible. Lasts a long time. But as for that model. It's HORRIBLE. any grinder iwth the thumb switch is bad. They get debris in them and refuse to stay on. So I only get paddle switch grinders now.
Disappointed you didn’t rate the toe… guard
Shows his boots but refuses to show his feet. 2/10 lol
😂😂
I had some wolverine boots that I purchased a few years ago that the sole came up on and I just superglued and baking sodad it back together and it lasted at least a year after. I will never buy another pair of wolverines because they broke about a month after purchasing them. Not that I minded repairing them but to pay $100-200 for a pair of boots to have them come undone a month after is not quality.
I haven’t worn Wolverines in years for that reason. I was walking out of them in 6 months.
So your company bought you boots so didn’t smash your toes and smashed your toes wearing UA-cam boots “ zero out of ten “ 😂
Klein tools
I want a not to buy tools list tools u have used that u don’t recommend
