After spending far too long looking for career fulfillment done the "conventional" career path I dove into carpentry to pay the bills and support my growing family. Looking back I wonder why I waited so long to take on a rewarding, skill-building, challenging, and satisfying job.
Together we will dive into the the tools, concepts, maths, techniques, tricks, and more of the carpentry trade.
It's time to show the next generation that trades are a respectable career path for skilled and talented men and women. WeTheTrades.com/shop
@@rodleger7132 geometry didn't change with the invention of the circular saw, if you take a bit of time you can set the circular saw to the correct angle as per the square and cut it, but most don't bother, just whack it over to the 45 stop and cut, it's not right but it's close, only starts to look crappy once the pitch gets steeper than 7/12.
I set my measuring tape down and walk away from it constantly so yes I’ll still be forgetting my cut list 😂 But in all seriousness I already write on the body of my Dewalt measuring tape. Tried it on a Milwaukee I bought but it’s not as easy to see the pencil on the red plastic.
@@ByronBuildsOfficial I’m not a fan of using a tool belt inside homes. When I used to be in roofing absolutely used one. I just gotta stop setting the damn thing down and walking away from it lol. I think I saw that sticker thing in a local lumber store not too long ago and seemed like a good idea to me.
Works with the larger boxes too. They’ve made them so when you grab the handles, another set of jaws grab and keep the lids closed. Pretty smart design actually 😎
One thing to mention is that the thinner organizers with the none flipping handle will open if latches aren't secure Only the ones with the flipping handle will lock themselves even with latches undone... How I know this!? Trust me bro, I am a professional at making a mess😂
Hi is there a chance that the bottom part which to stack another Milwaukee box tore / broken / not being able to stack? Thank you. ( sorry if my language is a lil bit frustating to understand, cheer)
I’m pretty sure the lid just about popped open when the dropped it back on top! I’m skeptical. I just looked at the Pack Out this afternoon. Really a nice set up but I’m not sure I would trust the “Look Ma! No latches!!” trick..
@@ByronBuildsOfficial Failsafe definitely needed. It’s a great set. The place I went to didn’t have the main boxes and was not sure when they would get them.
Just started taking the Milwaukee plunge, & got a few of these for work. I’m a Diesel mechanic so I can either buy a bulky tool box that’s hard to maneuver around the shop vs get a few of the packout drawer boxes & build them up. Have the tools I never need at the bottom with lid boxes, 2 rows of 3 drawer boxes of different desired depth, & be infinitely changeable. They make little wheels for the bottom of the boxes so I can put one box on wheels, & move it around. The one problem I’ve ram into is that they don’t make one that’s over 4ft long for my longer stuff. Then if I need my tools at home I can grab a few of them, & put them into my truck & bring them back on Monday. Then if I decide to go to another shop I can break the boxes down, & not have to fight a giant metal box most guys spend thousands to purchase, & pay a tow truck to move for them.
@@rmalus10297 it's the board you are going to lay down on the stairs. If you don't subtract it, the you will have a larger thread on the top step and a taller riser on the first step. Someone will trip.
That’s an estwing and you can never have and estwing go bad. My cousin left his on the ground then accidentally ran it over with his excavator, the handle was bent like 20° and it still worked my dad has had his estwing for over 30 years and it works great I do framing and I have an estwing but only had it for one year so far and the mills are still there.
Thank you. Great to see the math being used for a practical purpose... I did pause the video and solved it with that damn algebra they taught us in school... lol. FYI... It can also be done with a framing square.
Happened to me multiple times. Last time I just threw the entire thing in the garbage. Went to Home Depot and bought a new one and went to my shop and refilled. It was done out of sheer anger towards the pack out . This next one better behave
Buy the SCRATCHMax is not a Stanley product. It’s my home business. And as a sticker can be applied to whatever tape measure (or other surface) where it will be useful.
