How studly of you 😆. I haven't seen the studbuddy pro yet look serviceable. I tried the studball and kinda went back to my go too Vaughan/ch Hanson magnetic stud finder. It's small clips onto the mag with a carabiner not just magnetic. The built in level that can rotate works great. On the side d ring of my veto bags it helps hold all the bit holders and other random useful stuff into a clump not rattling around. Serves many purposes and for digital stuff finders I like the Franklin ones where there's 5 or more lights on the face of it. Each light is 1/2in so 3 lights is a stud 2 lights is a pipe. Though not as important they lower end models are actually made in the USA. I find the digital stud finder from the brand you showed to not always be correct. One trick I also use before I drill a hole even with a stud finder saying it's good to go I take a installation support rod (in 100 packs at big box stores 10 bucks) and poke a hole ones sharp others blunt. That will also confirm if you safe or not also use the rods (1/16th in thick tempered hardened spring steel) to poke walls on opposite side of walls or poke holes in ceilings to find where that is in a attic or wall (other side). You can also put them directly into a drill chuck and use them as a flexible drill bit too or poke caulk tube's so many uses. Regardless check out the ch Hanson/Vaughan and the Franklin stud finders they may be your new favorite!
@@MattHmm-rq6dn I will have to check out the Hanson/vau………. I am also going to get some insulation support rods cuz they will come in handy….. I do like the stud buddy pro how it has a level and a straight edge on it is very handy.
Great new channel, I love it. I like seeing how the tools are actually used. I was in the process of collecting all the remaining “Malco Eagle Grip” locking pliers but I’m trying to think of instances when I would use them but since I’m not a welder I can’t think of too many that a woodworking vise wouldn’t work well for? Do you happen to know what applications very good quality Vice grips might be good for? Thanks Newman.
@@Goliad_Respector great I am glad you like it ……. I personally very rarely use a locking pliers I just don’t never been a huge fan but from what I hear the Eagle grips are the ones to get. A buddy of mine swears by them for removing rusty nails/screws. I do grab them here and there for soldering some wires, but that’s about it.
I commonly use vice grips (yes eagle grips) to hold screw/bolt heads to cut them down with a portaband. Sometimes it's angle iron aluminum track closet rail or rod. A handle on the material that I don't have to keep pressure on is a good thing.

I can see how the straight edge would be useful 👍.
@@MattHmm-rq6dn absolutely
