Starting out I wanted to do that, but ended up with a bunch of different tools instead. As a consequence, they all live with their batteries attached, ready to go. There's value in that too, as I've found out.
While I agree in theory, it's surprisingly hard in real life as demands and needs change. Suddenly you need a tool that isn't in your initial brands range and off you go.
This is good in theory but some tool brands have certain tools that just suck, eg Milwaukee circular saw sucks, get the Makita one. But the Makita recipro is slow and gets jammed easily so get the Milwaukee. It really depends on what you're doing
24 years old - 1st generation Spirited Man in a family of Spirited Women - not so much tinkerers. One of the things I'm most proud of is that I change my own oil (3 successful changes so far!). Everything about fixing things has been out of necessity - 15% clever and stubborn, 85% trial and error - as it goes. I can't tell you how important this video is to me. Your channel in general. I never had a fixer to teach me the basics. I come back to this video once a month without fail when I have an extra dollar. Teachers like you, I cherish dearly. Thank you.
30 y.o. here. - Thanks for writing this. I felt accompanied when reading you. I recently did my car service on my won (Renault from 2016) and it was great. I alse made a horrible closet and a desk to work. We're great startings. I appreciate your shared experience (I got excited by talking about it, thanks for reading it if you have the time). Students need learning partners from time to time. Keep the spirit up
I buy the cheapest, crappiest tools you can find. Then when it breaks I buy the best, because I used it enough to break it, I know I now need it. I have a box full of cheap crappy tools that I only used once.
that's a great method... i think my dad steered me away from that to save me from wasting $30 on a cheap drill, but if it doesn't break, you didn't really use it enough, so your method is logical
I noticed that both you and Adam Savage (Tested/Mythbusters) were once both under the employ of Tom Sachs, and both of you share certain viewpoints on tools, modifying things, repair, and solving problems. You also both have the same NASA multitool from Tom. It would be awesome to see a crossover between the 2 of you. Maybe share some stories and just have a chat.
Adam Savage wasn't really employed by Sachs. Tom and Adam are good friends and Adam participated in the demonstration of Sach's space program Europa, but he was never one of Sach's studio assistants like Van was. Agreed though they need to get together and chat.
Honestly I also thought about Adam Savage when watching this video, but for a different reason: Van said to buy an expensive tool, while Adam advices to start with the cheapest one - to learn how to use it and understand what exactly you need from this kind of tool. Then move on to a more expensive one, but only after you actually know what you want. I say Adam's right here.
THIS. I love this video. It feels like 100 years of wisdom gifted down from my grandfather in his garage. The wisdom of the sages. No fluff. No bull. Just pure gold.
The only thing I disagree with is not buying good personal protective equipment. The good stuff feels better and that means you are more likely to use it.
3m worktunes for the win. I find that when something loud is happening and I dont hear music or a podcast I feel a deep sense of discomfort. I now have more pairs of them than I can even count, but they're constantly around
This is great advice, and I agree with his tool selection. Do NOT EVER EVER EVER use a dremel cut off disc without eye protection. They absolutely shatter constantly and you absolutely will lose an eye if you get lazy.
knipex pliers are my favorite tool. The fact that they lock into the size you need has saved me so many times especially fixing things that get hot. I will never buy another plier ever again
I love this. I am not a maker. I didn’t grow up watching a maker or learning anything about how to use tools to make things. But I am so keen to learn, even at 50. Having a sense of where to start is excellent. Thank you.
I’m a lady but because of the 3 of you (You, Tom & Casey), I started to get and organize basic tools although not using them on daily basis but today they helped me a lot
I was gifted a broken Leatherman - Van's model is the "Charge" (noted by David H. below), but the "Surge" is also great - from an eagle scout friend who had to catch a quick flight. The company replaced it *free* , and its updated design had beefier wire cutting teeth on the pliers, right where the broken one had failed. They'll offer to send you back the broken one along with the new one, if it has sentimental value. Also, I agree with you Van, it's one of the tools I always keep on hand but stopped carrying it on my person due to the value and weight.
Solid list. Edits/Additions I would make: - 7" speed square and full size framing square instead of a combo square. Swanson or Empire Brand. - Folding Utility Knife with pocket clip and extra blade storage. Kobalt model 56887 is the best bang for your buck. - Make sure speed square has a magnet, very useful when leveling trailers/campers/ anything metal. - Stud finder, essential for any homeowner (one was probably used to mount the magnet). Franklin or Zircon brand. For anyone taking the next step beyond this list and getting into anything more serious, the very next tool I would buy is a circular saw. Corded are much cheaper and more powerful for the weight, but cordless are where it's at. Cordless recommendation: Milwaukee 6 1/2" - all you need for most things. Diablo blades are the best bang for your buck. Buy some masonry blades and metal blades for it and you can cut just about anything. You could come very close to building a house with a circular saw and Van's list of tools.
you'd need a hammer and tool belt... key point on the circular saw, use a Diablo blade, not because it would match the red Milwaukee color, but because they default come with a crappy blade and a thinner, sharper carbide tooth blade will get all the power out of that cordless saw... a dull or crappy blade is the most dangerous thing on a circular saw
100% - You can usually catch the Makita 18v set on sale at HD for a good price. I prefer the 18v because it balances the weight at the top of the drill/driver. Easily my most used tools for more than 15 years of professional and home fixin shit.
This fulfilled man agrees with this spirited man invest in your tools because they will stand the test of time, save you money and you can make them yours because they are your tools. Can’t wait to by my own, Awesome work Van!
As someone not in the majority age demographic for this channel I can say that this video will highly influence what tools I get in the future, as I have none. But since watching this video I have fixed my first thing, I replaced a light switch. It was exhilarating and I will never go back.
I just started a new job this week as a Groundskeeper and your videos were the inspiration for that after years of not knowing what I wanted to do with my life. Best choice I've ever made!
Van, I think you have to make a "list book" that we can purchase through your Merch. Doesn't even need to be typed, just print them and we will buy them.
I think I am the one who first asked you to do this, privately, and this really is EXACTLY what I was asking for. You are making friends with each video. Thanks, Van.
The thing you didn't mention. Having good quality tools inspires you to make more things. Good, dependable tools make building things way more enjoyable!
I love having 2 cordless drills. Game changer!! My heavy duty hammer drill for pilot holes/drilling, and then my smaller lighter cordless for screwing only. No need to change bits and battery strength keeps you going for a while.
I'm having an ADU built, I have to move my tools from garage to new shed so I stopped and started your video to take notes on what I really need and don't need. Thank you! Oh, and I love the beauty of your tools videoed here!
Truthfully thank you for this my dad has taught me a lot of things but being a simple man and being able to just explain something like that is something he never truly possess. Thank you for everything
This is all solid advice. Good tools will pay for themselves several times over (assuming you learn to use them instead of hiring a handy man or contractor). I would recommend a circular saw before an angle grinder, if you work primarily with wood. My biggest challenge is keeping everything organized. I love the bespoke storage accessories Van makes. It's amazing what you can do with some scrap wood, brackets, screws, wire, and magnets :)
On the drills, I would say get both a 12 volt and something higher. I have 12 AND 18. 12 is great for all around use, general household assembly etc. But too weak for everything else. I end up using my 18 volt Bosch for the majority of woodworking projects etc.
This is awesome, but please use a guard on the anglegrinder as a default, and remove it when needed. Without a guard = death wheel, with a guard = slightly less deathy wheel
Everyone smart uses a guard. I do. The edge of a cutoff wheel is moving 150 mph when it spins. I've had two discs shatter on me and a wire brush catch my sleeve. I also always wear a face shield and gloves when grinding. Don't listen to the clowns. Grinders are to be taken seriously. I don't always have the most careful technique, or I might be in a rush sometimes. But I always use the side handle and the guard.
very good for the young guy starting out or if you want to re-vamp your tools. I have most of these and am too cheap to replace them right now, maybe someday. Do have a dewalt drill chorded though. Got a dremmel from a yard sale. I think the mandrill and cut off disks will be my next. I also had a ton of old hard drives from an old job and pulled magnets out of them so may use them for the storage fun. metal filecabinets these days are usually cheap used or free and make good tool boxes or storage blocks and magnets stick there too of course
I am almost 4/7 absorbed by the war in Ukraine, but now I take a break or I get depressed. Happy to have The Spirited Man as my top recommendations here on YT. I ALWAYS enjoy Van’s videos, no matter what he does.
3:19 I noticed the level on your combo square was essentially perfectly level and that is most certainly by design. just a level of appreciation added I thought I would mention.
I appreciate the "buy good tools" sentiment but on the advice of a general contractor friend I bought a Ryobi combo kit some years back. It has a reciprocating saw, circular saw, cordless drill, 2 batteries and a flashlight (plus a carrying bag for everything), and the whole kit cost about what I would pay for any *one* of those if I bought Makita, Milwaukee or DeWalt. I know real makers crap on Ryobi but while it's definitely not as nice as the quality stuff it's perfectly fine for my occasional "weekend warrior" purposes.
Hot tip: Milwaukee and Ryobi are literally the same. Same company, same factory. Current ryobi = last seasons mke. Ryobi is excellent for home use and so much more affordable. No reason to splurge on the higher priced big box brands.
I know I'm late to the video commenting but this video and all of The Spirited Man videos are a constant inspiration. They are the kind of content I want to make because a year from now, 5 years, 10 years, etc., this type of content will not have aged a day. I bought myself a Leatherman and personalized it with my last name...can't wait to hand it down to my future son.
Thanks Van! I got my first pair of tools so far I upgraded my closet and yesterday I opened my JBL Bluetooth speaker to fix it, it feels way better to fix than to buy new things.
If you live in Canada, substitute the Philips bits for Robertson. I disagree about not getting 18 volt tools. You can certainly start with a 12 volt drill (I love mine for it's light weight, and nimbleness for small tasks). 18 volt tools really shine when you need extra power and run time (a good example is repeated cuts through thick lumber, or using a holesaw). One of my odd-ball tools that I found surprisingly useful is a right-angle drill. If you're starting a tool collection, also get some quality hand files.

Keep your battery operated tools all the same brand so that the batteries and chargers are interchangeable.
Very true!
Starting out I wanted to do that, but ended up with a bunch of different tools instead. As a consequence, they all live with their batteries attached, ready to go. There's value in that too, as I've found out.
While I agree in theory, it's surprisingly hard in real life as demands and needs change. Suddenly you need a tool that isn't in your initial brands range and off you go.
Or better yet buy the battery system that you like the most and if you have to buy a brand that is different, get an adapter.
This is good in theory but some tool brands have certain tools that just suck, eg Milwaukee circular saw sucks, get the Makita one. But the Makita recipro is slow and gets jammed easily so get the Milwaukee. It really depends on what you're doing
Van fills the role of “The Dad who knows about tools” in my life
24 years old - 1st generation Spirited Man in a family of Spirited Women - not so much tinkerers. One of the things I'm most proud of is that I change my own oil (3 successful changes so far!). Everything about fixing things has been out of necessity - 15% clever and stubborn, 85% trial and error - as it goes.
I can't tell you how important this video is to me. Your channel in general. I never had a fixer to teach me the basics. I come back to this video once a month without fail when I have an extra dollar.
Teachers like you, I cherish dearly.

That's smart hahaha
That‘s Adam Savage‘s Philosophy as well :)
I like the way you think. As someone who always has to buy the biggest, best I’ve ended up with a ton of stuff I never use, not just tools.
that's a great method... i think my dad steered me away from that to save me from wasting $30 on a cheap drill, but if it doesn't break, you didn't really use it enough, so your method is logical
@@user-hd8ej8yx9p Cordless drill and impact driver and maybe socket and ratchet set is an exception.

Owning a truck is perhaps the ultimate social cheat code. Eventually everyone needs something moved.
Love ur vids ❤️
Also facts
top tip : the trick is to keep your truck full of crap, no one wants to unload your crap , store it and re-load it so they can move their crap .
yeeeeees. I'll never go back to a car
Yes I can help you move. Have your stuff boxed and ready to go. If I show up w/ my truck and stuff NOT in boxes I WILL leave.
@@bobsofia68 we say this, but let’s face it. We ain’t dicks
I would love like a 30 minute version of this
THIS. I love this video. It feels like 100 years of wisdom gifted down from my grandfather in his garage. The wisdom of the sages. No fluff. No bull. Just pure gold.
The only thing I disagree with is not buying good personal protective equipment. The good stuff feels better and that means you are more likely to use it.
I like the good PPE as well looks more professional and typically OSHA approved.

I agree. Buy it once and it will last for decades
if you have Bose noise cancelling headphones you will have built in ear protection
@@user-hd8ej8yx9p They dont protect your ears like at all
This is great advice, and I agree with his tool selection.
Do NOT EVER EVER EVER use a dremel cut off disc without eye protection. They absolutely shatter constantly and you absolutely will lose an eye if you get lazy.

Love this. Just bought a house two days ago and my tool set is less than desirable. This is extremely helpful. Thank you Van!
THIS. IS . EXACTLY. WHAT. I . NEEDED thank you so much Van :D
YES! Was hoping for tool philosophy and techniques! Keep it coming!
After this Spirited Man's video, Ordered my first Leatherman in hopes of becoming like The Spirited Man.
Rest easy Mr.Kubrick... another spirited man.
Big flex on that NASA Leatherman, nice !
Flathead screws are forbidden. Music to my ears. Thank you Spirited Man.
Good advice. Did not know of the Dremel quick chuck thingy, thank you.
I love this video so much, I keep watching this again and again
I am loving this tool series!!!
Moving back home to Denver from a family gap year in my wife's native Poland and am excited to put together a tool kit! Thank you Van. Cheers
Every single thing in this video is absolutely true to my experience. Great video!
This is all solid advice. Good tools will pay for themselves several times over (assuming you learn to use them instead of hiring a handy man or contractor).

Just what I have been needing. Thanks Van.
beautiful, keep this series going please.
First video; heard about you from the fella that built you a toolchest and is a big fan. You're a stud, thanks and subscribed.
On the drills, I would say get both a 12 volt and something higher. I have 12 AND 18. 12 is great for all around use, general household assembly etc. But too weak for everything else. I end up using my 18 volt Bosch for the majority of woodworking projects etc.
That tool info that nobody tells you until now..always bringing fire content!
Appreciate the content, Van. Keep up the great work!
This is awesome, but please use a guard on the anglegrinder as a default, and remove it when needed. Without a guard = death wheel, with a guard = slightly less deathy wheel
No one ever uses a guard
Grinders are dangerous, but not nearly as much as boomers think
Everyone smart uses a guard. I do. The edge of a cutoff wheel is moving 150 mph when it spins. I've had two discs shatter on me and a wire brush catch my sleeve. I also always wear a face shield and gloves when grinding. Don't listen to the clowns. Grinders are to be taken seriously. I don't always have the most careful technique, or I might be in a rush sometimes. But I always use the side handle and the guard.
All but the Dremel live in my toolbox in the garage. Now I'm off to get a Dremel. Loving your work as always 👍
thank you spirited man!
might one day come back and buy those tools
Bless this man, he´s a god-send. I´m motivated, inpired and comforted.

I definitely took it for granted being born into a house with all these tools and more.. I didn't realize how uncommon it is to have them!
I just purchased a 1976 Mercedes 300D and literally need to put together a trunk toolbox with every tool you just mentioned. Thanks Van!
Might be one of my favourite videos of yours, thanks!!!
I'm looking forward to tomorrow morning Patreon livestream Q&A - quickly becoming a highlight of my week
what an awesome video, the advice every man needs when they begin their journey
Very informative and accurate selection. The weaknesses of lesser options will become trouble in the long run and not equate to being as productive.
This is some sage knowledge right here, can't wait to slowing build my kit
I am almost 4/7 absorbed by the war in Ukraine, but now I take a break or I get depressed. Happy to have The Spirited Man as my top recommendations here on YT. I ALWAYS enjoy Van’s videos, no matter what he does.
Are you from ukraine?
3:19 I noticed the level on your combo square was essentially perfectly level and that is most certainly by design.
just a level of appreciation added I thought I would mention.
Dialogue is on point! Well done
I'm blessed with being able to use tools made starting from ~1900-present time, the tools my great grandparents and grandparents used
Already on my way. Thank you, father and thank you, Van!
I appreciate the "buy good tools" sentiment but on the advice of a general contractor friend I bought a Ryobi combo kit some years back. It has a reciprocating saw, circular saw, cordless drill, 2 batteries and a flashlight (plus a carrying bag for everything), and the whole kit cost about what I would pay for any *one* of those if I bought Makita, Milwaukee or DeWalt. I know real makers crap on Ryobi but while it's definitely not as nice as the quality stuff it's perfectly fine for my occasional "weekend warrior" purposes.
Ryobi is just fine.
Great advice, amazing video, and awesome Leatherman! 😯
Hot tip: Milwaukee and Ryobi are literally the same. Same company, same factory. Current ryobi = last seasons mke. Ryobi is excellent for home use and so much more affordable. No reason to splurge on the higher priced big box brands.
wow good to know thanks
I have a super cheap Ryobi drill I bought probably 7 years ago and it has never failed or given me any trouble.
Awesome content my friend. Keep up the good work.
I like these, I see these as documenting your life lessons for your son. Good move.
I needed this video a year ago. Thank you still !!!!!

Great collection
Love the kit videos
amazing video. Thanks
It makes me very happy that you have one of the Tom Sachs Leatherman (of course you do).
This is such a great video!
Wow! Great video!
Loved it!
Precious stuff for a great person.
Wow-what a useful video!
If you live in Canada, substitute the Philips bits for Robertson. I disagree about not getting 18 volt tools. You can certainly start with a 12 volt drill (I love mine for it's light weight, and nimbleness for small tasks). 18 volt tools really shine when you need extra power and run time (a good example is repeated cuts through thick lumber, or using a holesaw). One of my odd-ball tools that I found surprisingly useful is a right-angle drill. If you're starting a tool collection, also get some quality hand files.

I'm closing on my first house tomorrow and I feel like Van knew what video I needed.
I was feeling some anxiety and this video calmed me down.

How about shelves? Basic framing??
Happy to be here!
Wonderful video
Love it! 👍
