Hey this is only 5 tools... I have the handle puller. (Journeyman didn't have em) I have a fork wrench I use for basket strainers. I have the picks. (Journeyman didn't have em) I have the PEX cutters too. No one as far as I know uses tubing benders at my company. I will pick one up if I ever find a need to use one.
Some of the hand tools that Roger is displaying are tools that was used for old school plumbing. Hand tools nowadays comes in sets, adjustable, or multi bits. Adjustable wrenches, multi bit screw drivers, plier sets, snips, tubing cutter, torpedo leveler, tape measure, hex keys, a bucket and rag is all you need for service work at a basic level. It can be a very minimal setup and you don’t got to carry around 100 tools like what you see in electrical or HAVCR work. Usually how I set up my bag is the main tools I always use and I always buy a second set of those tools in case my main tools are lost, stolen, or broken.
Generally with lines in residential or commercial it’s all going to be hard copper, the copper he’s bending in the video is soft copper you cant bend hard copper.
not to mention how over time it can get egg shaped so service later becomes difficult. pex fitting save lots of time, a or b, removing soldering removes the chance of pinholes and yk leaks because there was some dirt in the elbow and whatnot, just more streamlined now, and pex b fittings will hold even if the fitting isnt fully in the pipe
Save yourself some money and headaches. Buy good quality picks, may have to order online but i went with the ullman pick sets they got deep lengths regular and they dont break the first use like home depot or harborfrieght picks.
I got all that stuff. But the handle puller i have retired. If I can't get the handle off.... your getting a new faucet. A handle puller is like a seat wrench. I'm not changing your seat. I have broken to many faucets over the years and customers say.... it was only dropping. Now it's fucked. It will have to be a fancy fancy faucet to make me get a handle puller. Or seat wrench
These are the not so obvious/necessary. Like a tub tool. You can make it work with 2 channel locks but the tool makes it easier and you don't have to wreck tools.
@@instrumental Channellock will not get you through changing A fitting has been on a pipe for 10 for 15 years. I know who he is I know he's a plumber I know he makes many videos. But a pipe wrench has to be one of those tools on the list
@@RogerWakefield Am from osun State in Nigerian, I'm a competent plumber but not getting project always And really looking for better plumbing job anywhere in the world, I can work in any country And I can work with individual or company.
He had full RU-vid videos this is just cut up for shorts he doesn’t just make shorts he clips his videos and they’re really informative and guy know wth he’s doin
@@nicktorres5540 well you could still make the shorts more focused. I’m not busting on you. I would rather know one of the tools real well then wonder what 5 do.
