    Would think a fun challenge and to vet your choices is to only use these 50 tools for a couple months. After the couple months are over re- evaluate and see if you would make any changes.

    • @BB-gb3lj
      @BB-gb3lj 6 років тому +19

      Great idea. I’d like to see him use these fifty tools exclusively for a month to see how complete the list truly is, nothing better than testing your gear in real life. It would be interesting to see what you would add or replace with an alternate on the list after a months use. I might try it myself for a month myself, sounds like a challenge!

      That's exactly how I determined what tools I needed on my motorcycle tool roll. Because you can't take everything. A couple of shake down camping trips and a disassembly enough to adjust the valves. Figured that nearly every fastener would be covered with that example. As I reached for the tool to complete an action, I set it aside. When the bike was all buttoned up, those were the tools I now permanently keep on the bike.

      A cool idea, but not what this series is intended for. It is intended to help direct people to the more important tools that you can get by with in a pinch, and to outline a good starter setup (watch the first video), not what his specific life goals are and I doubt the camera is one of the 50. How will he make videos or upload them without the use of a camera, a computer, a router..... ;) I'd rather see him progress his homestead to the best of his abilities with all the tools he has accumulated over his lifetime.

    I’m a framer and when trusses or lumber get delivered with metal bands you can break them using your hammer claws by twisting the band, no need for tin snips for metal bands.

    I used to work for a grave digging crew when I was fresh out of high school we would dig the graves by hand a mattock is a necessary tool for digging through Red Georgia clay it never fails when you dig something as deep as a grave in Georgia you are gonna run across some clay and it’s hard as a rock. And the trick of running a bolt through a mattock is something we did it allows you to get a full swing in and not worry about the head sliding down the shaft. Also digging a grave by hand is something I hope to never do again it is some of the hardest work I ever did.

    I am a residential contractor and I almost exclusively do remodels. Most of those are bathrooms. I carry a small tool pouch which caries most of the tools I need on hand but the few I use the most I keep on my person in my cargo pockets. The most useful tool that I carry on my person is a set of 10" channel locks. These are great for pulling nails, loosening or tightening pipes and bath fixtures, and I will use it as a makeshift hammer when I am in a bind. This tool has a lot of uses and through the years the tools I carry on a daily basis has changed this one has not. Great videos and I am looking forward to you finishing this series.

  • @matthewsbernier
    @matthewsbernier 6 років тому +1

    Cody, this is for the tool historian/collector in you: So what you have there is indeed a pick/mattock, as some have pointed out. (For months I thought my crew leader was saying pick-matic, like some kind of automatic pick.) It's a combination of two tools that you used to be able to buy seperately very commonly, the mattock, a kind of digging adze, and the pick, which you can still find in specialty stores. Put them together and you have the pick/mattock. You covered the other most popular variation, taking an axe, or cutter, a head that looks a lot like a metal version of a stone axe, and combining it with the mattock, the combination usually being called a cutter/mattock. Finally, you have the railroad pick, a pick on one side, and a horizontally oriented chisel on the other, like a narrow, long, robust mattock.
    Collect them all!

    • @ericwhite3526
      @ericwhite3526 6 років тому

      David Twigg ehh a claw hammer is handy for shipping crates and pallets still I'd think you'd want the tin snips when you go for the stainless steel foil and other shim stock

    • @ericwhite3526
      @ericwhite3526 6 років тому

      David Twigg yep Ford would definitely have most of the bases covered and any luxuries that help speed things up you probably wouldn't need the stainless foil as you'd have pre treated parts or a fancy oven that removes the oxygen from the heat box

    • @ericwhite3526
      @ericwhite3526 6 років тому

      jeffnorris4 yep that's a good way when the strap has no room under it as they typically like to pull on the thick and wide steel banding straps some times it's that or get the hammer and chisel

    In regards to your choice of a "pipe wrench" I feel you need (2) pipe wrenches. In plumbing applications; having two wrenches in opposing directions gives you tremendous power to loosen older pipes.

    • @cmdrsocks
      @cmdrsocks 6 років тому

      I agree, some tools should only ever be bought in pairs, I don't know what I would do with just one Crescent wrench for example.

    • @waltlars3687
      @waltlars3687 6 років тому

      cmdrsocks a crescent wrench wont grip round pipe but a big slip joint pliers will so I would have a pipe wrench and slip joint pliers one for holding and one for turning

    • @cmdrsocks
      @cmdrsocks 6 років тому

      You are correct, my point though is that just one wrench of any type is a bit useless. As you say, one for holding and one for turning.
      That being said, check out this beauty:- www.crescenttool.com/sockets-and-sets/x6tm-sockets-2/crescent-cptaw8-x6tm-pass-thrutm-adjustable-wrench-set.html
      Now you can grip pipes with a crescent wrench and much more besides. I believe I have just found my next "must have" tool.

  • @riverjohnson6589
    @riverjohnson6589 6 років тому +7

    I recommend an angle grind because you can cut or grind metal and then there's another thousand things to put on one and they aren't that expensive. When I round out a bolt i get the angle grinder and cut a slot for a straight blade screwdriver.

    Good video. Re no. 13, the pipe wrench - I worked with the plumbers one summer during high school and learned that you most often use pipe wrenches in 2's. Example - a one and a half iron pipe with a seized fitting can be uncoupled easily (lying pipe flat on the ground ) using 2 opposed 18" pipe wrenches - usually with as long an extension as you can find. Cheers.

    Angle Grinder! 4.5" angle grinder! I use mine for literally everything in all trades of workmanship/craftsmanship, and hobbies! Plastic, metal, wood, concrete, stone, tile, paint, EVERYTHING! Sharpen, polish, hone, cut, notch, shape, clean, debur, etc etc. Just the other day I used one to help a friend cut the lug nuts off his car because the wheel studs were stripped on the backside, lug nut just spun the stud. Also used it to split the bearing races on the same vehicle. Use it every day. Also makes a great flush cut saw, yeah dangerous, but with great muscle memory it works.

      @-Pol- 5 років тому +7

      A Pickaxe has a point and a very narrow, dull blade; it's shaped for breaking and levering out rock. A mattock has a wider, sharper blade and can have either a pick or narrow axe oriented blade opposite, ideal for chopping and prying out thick roots and rootballs. I've struggled with a pickaxe to cut through thick roots that a mattock would've made short work of and you'd ruin a mattock working rocks with its blade.

      A mattox is.not the same as a pick axe . A mattox consists of a pick end and typically something like a hoe end . A pick axe is for breaking rocks and such , a mattox is used for digging when it's to hard to use a shovel , you basically plow out the dirt and smash rocks when need be

    Knipex 10 inch pliers wrench. They make a lot of other sizes but the 10 is my go too. Fantastic for plumbing work and for sheet metal, the flat/parallel faces don't mare what you're working on and cause indents like regular groove cut pliers. Very well made too, i'd be lost without mine.

  • @-Pol-
    @-Pol- 5 років тому +2

    After much head scratching, I learned that the yellow handled 'straight' snips are designed mainly for snipping just an inch or so into the edge of sheet steel that's going to be folded. Reds are designed to steer to the left (think of the nautical/aviation red port light) but can also cut straight. Greens steer to the right (or starboard!). Ideally you'd have both red and green to cut curves and sections with minimal distortions but you can manage with either one; I read conflicting advice as to which is best for right or left handed people. As a right hander I opted for red since I can see myself most often cutting anti clockwise around something held in my left hand. However others advise that green allows you to move away the waste material with your left hand so I'd suggest research and decide for yourself. Either way yellow 'straight' snips seem the least useful of the set since both red and green offsets can cut straight too whilst also being angled so that one's hand is out of the way of the metal during long cuts.

    On battery life: I recently talked to a local tol shop owner who seems to be pretty knowledgeable. And he had a cooperation with our local university or something and apparently worked alongside a real battery expert aka scientist on battery technology. What that scientist told him is that Li-Ion batteries INEVITABLY start losing battery life after 7 years - because the very material of the electrodes will start to dissolve. So 7 years, the batteries will start to degrade after that, one wa or another. And I guess that only the value for really good batteries. We all know cheap batteries will give up much earlier, possibly due to other malfunctions.

    Regards the mattock head slipping. Family tradition was that you knew the day before you were going to use the mattock or the hoe or some other tool with a friction tightened head tool.
    So the night before you were going to use the tool, set the head with a few bangs and then placed the tool in a bucket of water. The wood swelled up over night and the tool was rock solid for the day’s usage.
    Thank you good sir, for the content and the channel. Bringing back childhood memories.

    The first tool is a "mattock" not a matix. I just bring it up because when talking to seasoned farmers, they sometimes make judgements on your skills based on the terminology used. In the Southeast, a mattock is a must have tool to break up red clay when digging a trench as well as cutting roots.

    You have an error. Braided nylon rope. Yes, it is an excellent rope,, but,,, no nylon,,, zero nylon ropes are static ropes. That includes both braided and twisted.nylon. The huge benefit of nylon IS its ability to stretch, it can elongate as much as 40% and return to its proper size and without loss of strength,, The safety line for the body harness working the roof, or the impetus line for a tree removal. Please note,,, the tree felling line to pull in the direction you want the tree to fall,,, if you use a static line,, you get great pull for the first one foot,, then the rope is slack,,, whereas a dynamic rope acts like a rubber band and keeps puling through that first 'recovery' of length. Ah ha ! The guide rope on a tree fall is the rope set 90 degrees to the intended fall direction,, and that IS a static rope.
    The best, and most common static rope will be a dacron, or polyester rope,, double braid,, and sailboat halyard quality. Easiest, best place to get it is the marine supplier. Many polyester ropes can be static. The toughest strongest, least stretch will be Dynema, Vectran, or especially Spectra. The ultimate in strength and no stretch, IMHO is Spectra rope You want static rope? This is static rope like no other. Spectra is based upon Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene , UHMWPE. This is the stuff that gives steel nightmares. Size for size,, consider 3/8 Spectra line vs 3/8 solid stainless steel rod as used in rigging racing masts, Spectra is stronger and stretches less than solid stainless rod. A new Spectra 3/8th inch 12 strand can lift 7 tons.
    The Spectra is stronger and stretches less than the solid rod of stainless steel. And weighs 1/10th as much. And a surprisingly soft 'hand' to it as well.

    • @chaz720
      @chaz720 6 років тому +1

      In parachute rigging / skydiving we commonly use Spectra, Dacron, Vectran, and Technora for suspension and control lines. Dacron is the most stretchy of those four. Spectra is a relatively durable line, but the issue it has is that if it sees a lot of rubbing it will heat up and shrink, so if you have several lengths that you're counting on to remain the same size relative to one another you can get into trouble if they rub or see different amounts of heating (I realize that's a very application-specific knock on Spectra.) Technora is incredibly rigid and stays dimensionally stable when heated, but it can be very difficult to gauge wear. When using Technora lines in skydiving you have to just count your jumps on the lineset and replace them on a schedule rather than having a "replace them when they look like XYZ" type of metric.

    • @Sailor376also
      @Sailor376also 6 років тому

      Yes, Chaz. Things have progressed. Counting openings,, My LR-288 has 800 # Kevlar (I am a large human) I used to think in terms of 400 openings for the older 400# Kevlar. Do you have knowledge as to replacement cycle on the 800# Kevlar? 20 years old at this point ad 200 total jumps Not sure I will ever jump that rig again, but it would be nice to know. (Last time out the door for me was 9 ? years ago.)

    I didn't read all the comments but I would choose a multimeter. I just moved into forclosed wreck of a home and there were many times that I used a voltmeter to debug problems. Propane furnace thermopile not putting out enough millivolts, smoke detector 9 volt battery seems tired, figuring out what switches control what outlets, finding a break in the telephone wire up to the house, verifying the subpanel in the garage puts out 220V, checking alternator on truck, verifying outlet is turned off before replacement. It is the leatherman of the electrical world. Having a multimeter that you trust is almost as important as having one at all. Thanks for the video

    I think most stores call is a pry bar and Canadians call it a flat bar, but my Dad and I call it a scraper. It's about a foot long, has one end set at 90 degrees, and both ends have a slightly beveled edge. Not endorsing them but if you look for "Titan Tools 17005" you'll see what I mean.
    We started using them to scrape the bottom of the lawnmower deck but have since used them in countless other ways. We can pry wood trim out from the wall, we can scrape with it, we can even remove small nails. One of my favorite unknown tools. Well, it was unknown to us at the time.

  • @theoneandonlyowl3764
    @theoneandonlyowl3764 6 років тому

    Cody, something that may not have crossed your mind for your tool kit, but something that gets constant use around here is a 12" pair of fencing pliers and a part roll of 6 or 8 gauge fencing wire (plus knowing how to tie a cob and hitch with wire - never loosens when done right). It's amazing what can be built or repaired with these. But, buy the straight pliers, not the parrot nose type (they're probably useful but not as versatile). Add an axe, crosscut or chainsaw, plus a brace and 3/4 - 1" bit for poking holes through posts and you can build anything from a cattle yard to a knock-up shelter, repair an exhaust system on the truck (made many temp repairs with fencing pliers and wire on vehicles) to a 100 other uses. A bit of smaller tie wire or a variety is always handy too. A star picket or two is also handy for getting out of tricky situations in the bush if there aren't any trees handy, not that you seem to have that problem where you live. Good luck with your list.

    I'm a big fan of Channel Lock pliers. I'm a mechanic and my go-to pliers at work are a $55 set of Channel Locks. All made in the US and very high quality. In fact many of the tool trucks that sell the highest quality professional tools are actually selling pliers made by Channel Lock. Any of Cornwell, Mac, or Blue Points US made pliers are made by Channel Lock and then rebranded for a higher price. They also make some pliers for Matco and Snap On. You'll see serial numbers that have something like 430CHN mixed in and that's actually Channel Locks part number for that design (like the 430 tongue and groove pliers) and CHN is the abbreviation for Channel Lock. So if you just buy directly from them you're literally getting tool truck quality professional tools at an excellent price.
