    Hey guys, I also went to Europe's Biggest Tool Fait to find quirky tools, check it out and let me know what you think here: ua-cam.com/video/Taa-zw4iwCQ/v-deo.html

    These events orgs should sponsor you to promote their shows. I'd 100% have gone to that tool show, just didn't know about it! Fair play to the channel, great promotion for the industry and puts the community in really positive light! Nice work 🍻

      It's the most useless tool (to me) but because of he's sales pitch and he's brief lesson on how to cut glass , I want the tool so badly 🫠🤣

    The 'bent screwdriver' is a WAGO insert extract tool. No only are they specific widths but the angle of the taper is specific as well.

    I didn't even know this fair was a thing before this video, you've got me contemplating about going to the one in Harrogate as I live in Newcastle. I bought some of your shadow foam for my Makita impact and drill and so happy with the results of it. Thank you very much!

    hello Jonathan,
    well, to create the ultimate elektriciaNS toolkit, I wanted to make it as small and light as possible, but still needet to get everything in that I'd use regulary.
    So I tried to go with the Stanley Cantilever FMST1-71219, becaurce I'd think it would fit everything I need.
    I even asked you guy's to make some inlay's for that, as it is a really complicated inside shape.
    Donna told me you guy's where too busy to make the inlay's, and I do understand that, so I had to make them myself, using your papersheet cuttung and sticking method.
    It was a real pain, but I finally got it.
    I'll make shure to send you some footage of the completed box!
