    Easily beats other Top 10 Tool videos - he's really got a gift for hitting the sweet spot between being concise/to-the-point and having an entertaining, affable speaking style. All of us who've watched a lot of similar channels know that's a pretty darn hard balance to get right!

    Too many cleaning sessions with a metal wire wheel and you’ll destroy your rasp cutting faces. I would recommend a brass wire wheel.( solid brass) Yes they cost as much as the rasp but you only have to buy each one once. Thank you for your quick delivery and clear views as opposed to loud music and endless talking because you want to be a you tube star. I found it a pleasure for once.

    I've had those stubby drill bits for years... brad point wood and metal ones. Love them. The metal ones are especially handy... chuck in & don't slip like most bits and don't flex like longer bits. Think about how often you drill deep metal holes... almost never. The short bits tend to drill straighter in hand drills.

    In 2006, at an A.S.H.R.A.E conference in Chicago, IL. I saw this oddball tool and the vender said they were only $10US(2006). I bought them and have never once regretted buying them. Yes, I still use them often in 2023. Then I spot the same ones in this episode, I had to laugh and 100% agree with your review of those oddball wire cutter/stripper. Keep being you Izzy, we enjoy what you do.

    You referred to the “circumference “ when discussing the first tool.
    When you set the radius to 5” and marked out the circumference of the circle the 10” measurement is the diameter . Thus the circumference of this circle is approximately 31.4”

    • @iamnegan1515
      @iamnegan1515 Рік тому +2

      yes, then he refered to the circumference as radius. Geometry must not be his strong suit.

    The main reason I reach for a hex drive drill bit, is when there is an obstruction which prevents u from getting the whole drill/driver close enough. You can get hex extensions or multiple of same to virtually any length. The whole show can get a bit wobbly tho. Keep up the good work.

    The stubby hex bits are a nice addition for some small (but surprisingly capable) hex bit cordless drivers. Sure, you don't have tons of power but when you're weak like me and have to drill holes overhead, having a lighter tool is a godsend. I have "normal length" hex bits, but those seem interesting.
