  • Look behind the scenes of how my excessive shopping order gets put together at ITS. Both vans are being fully kitted with smaller tools and sundries. I was putting this day off - the money it would cost me made me cry deeply. But there are a few really good bits I got.

    I used to work for a sparky, he used to take all of his tools inside every night after he had finished. Oh and every time you go on about van security. I remember a video you did years ago now, the locking system you recommended then impressed me so much. It centrally locked each door top and bottom not just one pissy external thing at the top.

Apart from the earth, which was sheathed correctly. I have 2 bathroom lights, on different circuits, well, i did have. Haven't told the landlord yet. Oh, and my boiler was replaced 18 months ago....... it has 13A chord on it, and a plug. Say no more.

    Tom, you’re bang on with spending the money.
    The only people that will put you down for it are those that don’t see the value in having good gear and how much money those tools will earn them.
    It’s the same for the Apple Mac Pro, if you can’t afford it you don’t need it- a true pro will see its value and pay the price.
    It’s the same reason I have £8k in camera gear; it makes me money and I can rely on it to just work.
    You’re an inspiration to anyone that has a talent or skill.

    As a recently semi-retired electrician I note a couple of interesting points here. 1. You're not rolling in cash, this is probably because you're not a fly by night spark but doing the job properly, I knew a lot of wealthy sparks most of their work was questionable to say the least, plus not usually very neat. I prided myself on the customer not being able to tell that we had been there. 2. buying the best tools you can, costs more money but saves you time in the long run and having the right tools is so much easier. Been there done it. Still love the videos!
