Hey Brad. Make sure you keep your 3M organic vapour mask in a sealed container when you are not using it. As the cartridges contain activated charcoal which will continuously absorb vapours. Also when you can smell the chemicals or solvents etc when using the mask you need to change your filters. Love your content. Chris the Paint Shop Guy.
Hey so that 11in1 (or whatever the number was) with the hexes, I think the hex cutouts are for the disassembly of paint guns for cleaning after use. The tool I have that like has the right size to loosen the nozzle and other parts on the paint sprayer. Pretty handy so I don't have to go hunt for wrenches.
Your wife should have a sleep study. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea and getting a CPAP really improved my sleep and my health overall. My wife ignored it for years also as I snored. She then noticed that I was actually stopping breathing in my sleep and that it would cause me to wake up for a moment to breathe and I would go back to sleep unknowingly. She recorded me with her phone and had me watch it so I would take it seriously. I am so glad I got help.
I second that. I’m constantly tired no matter how much sleep I get and my wife has noticed me snoring more often as well as stop breathing at time throughout the night. Going to get a sleep study done soon.
A CPAP will change your entire life for the better. The masks are so unobtrusive now, especially if you’re a nose breather because you don’t need a mouth mask. A convenient side effect of getting a CPAP was my decades long battle with ocular (aura) migraines. Literally overnight I stopped getting them. It’s been 2 years and I don’t think I was *actually* sleeping before that time.
@@rootvalue I have a dream wear mask. It's great. It also makes it very obvious when you are dehydrated. The lines on your face are a result of being dehydrated. 😁
I second this! I was diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea after my wife insisted that Something Must Be Done. So I have been using a CPAP for over 15 years. The cost is covered by most medical insurance - or in my case, my VA Disability medical benefits.
The 8 in 1 or whatever they call it has those wrench cut outs for paint sprayer hoses. If you work with an airless sprayer, they're pretty handy. For everyone else, stick with the regular 5 in 1. The new ones at harbor freight are like 5 bucks.
Your tip at the 5:16 mark reminds me of another trick I used. I have a bigger magnetic tray and I spilled some nails (I think it was), and since I don't have a magnetic sweeper, what did I do? I slapped the magnetic tray to the underside of my hand truck and used that as a quick-and-dirty magnetic sweep. Worked like a charm.
The Kreg panel carrier is worth the money. I bought one a few months ago. Not only has it saved my back, but it makes bringing sheets in and out of my shed easy. It even helps when putting sheets on saw horses.
Saw you have a homemade 3/4“ stop block that you use with the fence clamps. If you're still skeptical of 123 Blocks: adding 1" to your cut is easier math than adding 3/4“, and the clamp holes are already there!
@@Fixthisbuildthat Fit is everything in respiratory protection. Technically, your beard negates the half face respirator from passing a fit test. You will still be exposed to fine particulate and vapor without a proper fitting mask. If facial hair is unavoidable, consider investing is a PAPR (Powered Air Purifying Respirator) system. You can get the same filter styles to fit these systems, the head tops can be used with facial hair, and they add a nice cool breeze while you work. 3M TR-600 is the way to go. The way you use the half face respirator is for sure better than nothing. Just figured you should know about the correct solution for your hazard exposure. I too am too vain to shave my beard, and the PAPR has been my saving grace.
My Dad was a Night Custodian at one of the local High Schools back in the 90's. He kept a 5-1 Painters Knife in a holster on his hip. I have it now and use it regularly at work too. Someday it will go to my Son.
For anyone interested in those magnetic parts trays, shop around online and you will find a variety of sizes and shapes to go with whatever projects you do the most. There are small rectangular ones the size of that tray of screws you dropped on the floor. I find it useful to pre-load those small trays with common fasteners so they are within arms reach, and you can even turn them on their side and have them stuck to a magnetic backsplash over your work area. Doesn't take up as much space as a bunch of plastic trays and there is no risk of knocking them off the bench (and even if you did the fasteners would stay in the tray).
The best purchase I ever made for my shop is a pair of bifocal safety glasses. I struggled with over-sized goggle-types to wear over my eyeglasses (which often meant that I just skipped wearing the safety glasses at all...) - and then I found the bifocal version about 15 years ago at the Woodcraft store in Boise. Those safety glasses are now the very first thing I put one when I go into my shop!
I wear prescription eyeglasses with polycarbonate lenses. In addition to being lighter, the PC lenses are VERY impact resistant - but they are NOT ANSI rated. For that reason I also wear ANSI rated goggles over them, and/or my Trend Airshield Pro (which also protects my asthmatic lungs.) Years ago I used to have conventional safety glasses, but my prescription made them both heavy and expensive. (Fortunately, they were paid for by employers in my pre-retirement careers.)
Great Video. My favorite part of those 3m masks is when you are wearing glasses the air goes out the port on the nose, so your glasses don’t fog over. Complete game changer.
Safety glasses are a must! I used to be a machinist, now i was wearing saftey glasses but a metal sliver somehow got under there and into my eye. I woke up that same night around 2am and felt like i had flash burn. By 8am that morning my eye swelled shut and felt like it was on fire. Everytime i moved my eyes the sliver was cutting the inside of my eyelid. Eye doc just used a magnetic needle to extract it. But took about a week to heal and any sort of light would immediately make me tear up. I was rocking sunglasses indoors and an eyepatch that whole week. Its was painful to even watch tv.
Regrading the 3M filter mask, I recently realized there are different models with different sizes. Since switching to the right size (M->L) it seals better, and is much more comfortable. And I use it much more.
So as a painter, the ass end of the tool I use to fix wall after i take a nail or screw out a wall before i fill hole. My foot is the " hammer" you speak of. The scraping fat end can also take out outlet screws.
This is D.&T. TOXIC RC, IVE BEEN BUILDING SINCE 9 YRS OLD LICENCED AND CANT SAY HOW LONG LOL, VERY NICE TO HAVE HEADS UP FOR THINGS THAT CAN BE PRACTICAL AND EFFICIENT, THANKS
Thanks I have had a glubot for over a year now and never knew about the cap being storage for the tip cap. that was the only thing a hated about the glubot was the tip cap always hanging in the way. Great job.
For glue I also really like FIFO bottles with silicone dispenser nibs, they’re usually 6 for 10$ and they have so many household uses for thick liquids.
The 6 in 1 painter's tool, to me, is a must have tool for every shop. Never knew what the curved part was for. As for the magnet tray, I keep a couple of the Mag Switches floating around the shop. The advantage they have over the magnetic tray is they have an off/on switch. So, pick up the screws, bring them over the container, turn the mag switch off and they fall into the container. I also use them when fishing for a screw or nut that has fallen into the saw dust/shavings piles. Big piles from the wood lathes.... Also, I love the router/sanding matts for the shop. Get mine from Woodcraft, but sure there are others. They provide padding for your fine pieces of wood, and also fairly non slip. I have them in the drawer where I keep my bench chisels. They are also great for under your sharpening stones, both for the kitchen and the shop, and under the cutting boards in your kitchen.
Love that box cutter/scraper!! It’s larger in size, so for me with arthritis in my hands, it will be easier to use. And I could actually use the scraper part.
Great tips! I bought the glue dispenser and painter's triangles before the video was even over. I stain 2 sides of wood a lot and the triangles are a better way than how I've been doing it. I bought the Kreg plywood/drywall carrier about a month ago and wish I would have had something like this decades ago. I carried 22 sheets of 1/2" drywall out of a trailer and up flights of stairs onto my second floor, by myself, in about a half hour. Without the Kreg tool I would never have been able to get them upstairs alone.
Really useful video. One thing about the respirators - for them to work properly the wearer needs to be clean shaven (I have a beard too, but I have had to shave it off to wear a respirator while working with hazardous materials). Facial hair disrupts the facepiece seal almost completely negating most of the utility of wearing the respirator with organic vapor cartridges and/or particulate cartridges. There is a reason why workers occupationally exposed to hazardous materials and required to wear respiratory protection based on air sampling are required to be clean shaven to ensure they pass what is called the fit test and also to ensure the best possible facepiece seal.
The 15 in 1 putty knife has the hex wrenches for breaking down a spray gun. One size fits the tip and the other where the paint cup attaches. Useful if you are someone who sprays allot and don't want to carry the extra tools.
I think you have those reversed.. 2097 folters are absolutely rated for organic vapors. They were a mainstay in the injection molding shop I worked in for a decade.
Dude, what a great video! My Christmas wish list just got bigger (the wife especially liked the last one, since she's the master stainer of the family). Thanks again!
You need to check out the Purdy 10 in one folding paint scraper, another really nice folding tool is the Kobalt chisel with the folding handle I recently got a double sided folding pull saw from Temu and the handles fold together all three excellent ideas for a tool bag. I like the Craig marking tool you did in another video might be my next purchase. All these items are under 20$ as well.
The enclosed safety goggles are also great if you wear glasses, the DeWalt ones (look like the pair you had there) and some other brands have enough clearance to wear normal glasses underneath comfortably
Safety dude here. For the respirator, make sure to shave and get a good seal. Like another commenter said, keep the cartridges in a bag. I really like 3M respirators because they have a design that routes air awayu from your glasses. On the goggle, the enclosed style will also keep chemical splashes out of your eyes. On the ear protection, ear plugs are cheaper and more effective, but you need to get a proper fit. It should sound like you are underwater or holding a shell against your ears. See if you can get a sample pack from the company.
6:08 - that is REALLY useful! I often can't quite reach the edges of the board, so I have to either use my might of Thor to lift the board like this with my bare hands, or do the lever-lift from one end. And plywood boards are heavy!
Great video! Watched a similar video not to long ago but with tools under $50, would be interessting to see what your recommendations in different price ranges are.
While I generally like Kreg tools & have a number of them, I don’t like their prices on some items. Instead of paying for the Project Blocks & Painter Pyramids, I just purchased a bag of 12 hockey pucks, rounded of some 1/4-20 bolts to points for $19.99 on Amazon. $1.67/each plus the price of the bolt.
The panel carrier is so helpful. They are Exceptional for dragging about Horse "Stall Mats". I think it was Lee Valley or perhaps Duluth Trading Post that sold a Heavy Aluminum Version called a "Gorilla Grip". Though at about forty dollars, it was not cheap....it was money well spent.
If you liked the Pentel graphgear 1000 the rOtring 800 retractable mechanical pencil is on another level! It's the best feeling pencil with a nice solid metal weight to it. It's also great for fidgeting with the coolest opening mechanism ever thanks to German engineering.
Paper towel trick with magnet made the video worth watching. For those interested in the switch utility blade please be aware it requires a specialty blade; you're regular utility blades will NOT work. Just be aware.
FWIW, Harbor Freight has a HUUUUGE set of different mag parts trays, different sizes, shapes, colors, all at pretty good prices. And this is the kind of thing that really can't be done wrong, so, yeah, HF is one of the better ways to go with these. Regarding face protection, even better is Amazon: UVEX by Honeywell Bionic Face Shield with Clear Polycarbonate Visor (S8500) Just a hair over US$21 as I write. They allow people who wear reading/closeup glasses to use them comfortably. This also flips up out of the way if you need it, and is usually far enough away from your exhalation that it does not fog up overmuch. P.S. another thing of some relevance is bifocal safety glasses, which provide some assistance with seeing limitations for those of us with less than perfect eyesight. Not sure about wearing with any kind of respiration mask, however. There seems to be a limitation there, in that there are not many things that allow both or provide both...
The hexes and screw drivers on the 15 in one, fit the most common sizes on airless paint sprayers. So If your working with a paint sprayer constantly. It frees up a good deal of space in the pocket.
Lol. @3:39 I've been using it the Glubot forever and I never realized it was the holder. Now I know what it must feel like when kids learn that car's gas cap has a home built in to the lid.
The magnetic tray has a better use if you need a place to hold nuts, bolts, screws etc. But have no flat surface like working inside a duct or metal area, you can just stick it to the side of the metal and hold nuts and bolts while you work
at the 6:14 mark of this video you are putting the full sheet of plywood on some kind of cart. Can you tell me what cart that is. I think I can use that to move some 4x4 panels for a platform I have. Thank you very much.
Regarding earplugs - I highly recommend Radians Custom Molded Earplugs. They're cheaper than that package of disposables, less wasteful, and are as good as big hearing protection earmuffs while being far more comfortable and without conflicting with safety glasses. I use the red ones so it's easier for people to tell I can't hear them at a glance. Little tip while molding them: push where your tragus meets the side of your face to counteract the expansion you cause by pushing the uncured putty into your ears. If you don't, they can be uncomfortably thick in that spot once they've set. This will only be an issue if you plan on wearing them for more than an hour at a time, so don't worry about it too much.

I’ve had that knife for a couple of years now and I love it! I use it all the time.
5 and 6 in 1 paint tools are a life saver when working over night maintenance in retail

Good, it was
I have one of the sheet carriers that is more basic, but was designed for drywall. Would work for plywood too.
Tool Time!!! Tool Time! Outstanding tool review! New tools to make your work better, faster and more satisfying. Thanks!

Absolutely love that painters tool
I really liked the utility knife/scraper. I agree about the 6 in 1 painter's putty knife. I use mine all the time.
There's a paint can opener on the end of the Tough Built Scraper and it has a lanyard hole. I own one and it's awesome.
Always fun times in the FTBT shop. Great video 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
That scraper thingy works great. Right up until you drop it.

Yeah, it's got a nice size to it 👍
As a bonus feature, the opposite end of the cutter/scraper can be used to open paint cans.
It uses proprietary blades though that are hard to find.
Yes having to buy their blades sucks. They are expensive and wear quickly when scraping. It was a big letdown because the knife is awesome.

Great tools! Thanks brother! Have a great weekend. Cool shirt btw!
thanks!
on the
15 in one the side wrench slots are for paint guns for the tips and should be the same as your air fittings
Gotta try out the Purdy folding scraper, great and easy to fit in any pocket.
I have a few of these. Nice list. The panel carrier is on my New Tool list...That never ends...
I would not use the panel lifter for drywall. The pressure exerted on such a small area will snap the drywall. Ask me how I know.
The 15 in 1 putty knife has the hex wrenches for breaking down a spray gun. One size fits the tip and the other where the paint cup attaches. Useful if you are someone who sprays allot and don't want to carry the extra tools.

Clean the toughbilt scraper after each use. I didn't and mine eventually gummed up and would not pivot anymore. I did buy another though i love it

Instead of paying for the Project Blocks & Painter Pyramids, I just purchased a bag of 12 hockey pucks, rounded of some 1/4-20 bolts to points for $19.99 on Amazon. $1.67/each plus the price of the bolt.
The panel carrier is so helpful. They are Exceptional for dragging about Horse "Stall Mats". I think it was Lee Valley or perhaps Duluth Trading Post that sold a Heavy Aluminum Version called a "Gorilla Grip". Though at about forty dollars, it was not cheap....it was money well spent.
if you have a 3d printer and some velcro you can do the same thing with the sandpaper discs
Nice list. Wish the blade on utility knife did a 180. I have a magnet in a baggie but the tip with paper towel and parts bowl is a good one.
If you liked the Pentel graphgear 1000 the rOtring 800 retractable mechanical pencil is on another level! It's the best feeling pencil with a nice solid metal weight to it. It's also great for fidgeting with the coolest opening mechanism ever thanks to German engineering.
Paper towel trick with magnet made the video worth watching. For those interested in the switch utility blade please be aware it requires a specialty blade; you're regular utility blades will NOT work. Just be aware.
I wish I saw that magnet towel hack yesterday lol now I'll remember that for next time.
The sheet carrier is kool, easier on the back 👍👍🇭🇲🇺🇸
Those are some great ideas for tools under $20.
Ok, that scraper blade is pretty awesome.
Also, the brass "hammer" on the 5-in-1 can be used to mark drywall and some other surfaces, it's like a permanent marker.
Cool tools and channel. I wish we had a few of these in South Africa 🇿🇦
👍👍
Love the products. Great video
Okay the glue booger thing got me. Nice job.
😂 😂 👍
FWIW, Harbor Freight has a HUUUUGE set of different mag parts trays, different sizes, shapes, colors, all at pretty good prices. And this is the kind of thing that really can't be done wrong, so, yeah, HF is one of the better ways to go with these.
Regarding face protection, even better is
Amazon: UVEX by Honeywell Bionic Face Shield with Clear Polycarbonate Visor (S8500)
Just a hair over US$21 as I write.
They allow people who wear reading/closeup glasses to use them comfortably. This also flips up out of the way if you need it, and is usually far enough away from your exhalation that it does not fog up overmuch.
P.S. another thing of some relevance is bifocal safety glasses, which provide some assistance with seeing limitations for those of us with less than perfect eyesight.
Not sure about wearing with any kind of respiration mask, however. There seems to be a limitation there, in that there are not many things that allow both or provide both...
Also, there are times when Harbor Freight offers those magnetic trays for FREE with any purchase. That's how I got mine.
Can you use the panel carrier for sheet metal too?
I think the hex cutouts on the 5n1 tools are for paint-gun nozzles.
Thanks for sharing. Not enough solid Losi Mini B builds upgrades etc. on UA-cam as of yet.
Very good! Thanks.
Great tips, Brad. Affordable too.
Bill
Thanks, Bill!
The hexes and screw drivers on the 15 in one, fit the most common sizes on airless paint sprayers. So If your working with a paint sprayer constantly. It frees up a good deal of space in the pocket.
Lol. @3:39 I've been using it the Glubot forever and I never realized it was the holder. Now I know what it must feel like when kids learn that car's gas cap has a home built in to the lid.
hahaha, yup. Bet that little dangler has been annoying too 😀
2:20 it’s a painters tool…. The hex wrench is for changing your nozzles on your sprayer
Ahhhhhhh, totally missed that use. Duh!
I found a six in one with a set of quarter inch bits that go in the end so it works like a normal screw driver
The magnetic tray has a better use if you need a place to hold nuts, bolts, screws etc. But have no flat surface like working inside a duct or metal area, you can just stick it to the side of the metal and hold nuts and bolts while you work
at the 6:14 mark of this video you are putting the full sheet of plywood on some kind of cart. Can you tell me what cart that is. I think I can use that to move some 4x4 panels for a platform I have. Thank you very much.
Regarding earplugs - I highly recommend Radians Custom Molded Earplugs. They're cheaper than that package of disposables, less wasteful, and are as good as big hearing protection earmuffs while being far more comfortable and without conflicting with safety glasses. I use the red ones so it's easier for people to tell I can't hear them at a glance.
Little tip while molding them: push where your tragus meets the side of your face to counteract the expansion you cause by pushing the uncured putty into your ears. If you don't, they can be uncomfortably thick in that spot once they've set. This will only be an issue if you plan on wearing them for more than an hour at a time, so don't worry about it too much.
Another idea for the magnetic tray…put the plastic container of wood screws in the tray so that if it does fall off the bench it stays in place
Clever
