We review some different options for keeping your tools handy on the job site. The atlas46 & Special Operations Tool Gear vest see how they compare and how they stack up in actual real world trades business
I like the fact that you mentioned the dedicated speed square location, but did not mentioned anything about where you stick your hammer, a glaring omission. As a carpenter of 30 years, and presently looking for a new rig, would strongly base my decision to purchase on those two criteria. Very informative review. Thanks
I completely agree! I for what ever reason didn't think of it at the moment. The hammer location is great. Its a slightly angled holster to the rear. However I prefer the metal hoop style of the spec ops vest over the atlas vest. If I can devise a way to combine or use the hoop from the spec ops it'll be a great set-up. The holster on the atlas is sometimes a bit harder to understand holster is my reasoning for preferring the hoop style.
Man this video must be old! You guys said it will run around $300 to get the Atlas vest fully equipped. Try $1,000 now at least! Good work though guys.
that’s what i was gonna say lol I paid $350 for the basic vest. $200 for the rigid belt. Then the impact holster and the tool pounces and magnets lol grand total was $833
I was going to say the same thing. The vest alone with nothing attached is about $400, unless you buy the bundle it's slightly cheaper around $700. The vest looks cool but the price on these items are a bit insane.
It’s smart. It’s more worker friendly and dispersed weight and helps with back and fatigue issues. It’s an Operator type set up. Don’t know the price range for y’all’s gear but It can easily be done with Combat , battle belt ect from army/ navy store or online. Excellent concept
I hired a former cav scout to my crew, he has back issues due to service related injuries and he says that these vest are way more comfortable and by far better on his back than the traditional tool belts!
Great video. Unfortunately it seems i found out about this 4 years too late. These vest are too over priced for my taste. A single large pouch is $300 plus tax.
I never use my Atlas vest rig anymore its practically new. Its too hot in warm weather and i plane just got sick of the tactical comments on it. I just purchased an Oxidental vest hopefully its cooler due to being more open. I hope i can sell my Atlas vest i had almost 400$ into it and all the pc's have doubled in price since i purchased.
I've been making tool vests out of FLC vests for years. I actually see a lot of my ideas incorporated into your 2 vests. I don't have a RU-vid channel but always been meaning to start one to share my ideas and solutions. Contact me via pm and I will send you one of my vests to try out.
Daniel, thanks for the comment. I would be happy to try out your vest! Unfortunately I'm not aware of any way to private msg an account through RU-vid. Is there a specific platform that I could find you and message you directly?
@@danielbroadbelt1 yes, you can look me up under Bravo Company Home Improvements or got to our site www.bravocompanyhomeimprovements.com you can find links to.our social media on the website as well as info on how to contact me.
I used fishing for years.. Kind of limited. Just found this channel today. Just found out within the last 2 months that these tool vest even existed. This is great. I was in Cbs. Even in the military I never saw the tool vest. Just know flack vest great for add-ons. Times change. A tool belt has it's place. The tool vest is level up! Great video
Actually we worked in these outdoors in 105 degree weather this summer with high humidity and the mesh was very breathable along with the hydration bladder made it very doable in warm weather
Just the pencil holder is $60 A large pouch is $300. It hurt looking at that price point. Wanted to buy this but you need to be bringing alot of throw away revenue to pay that price with a strait face
Too much of a useless tool belt just purchase a good convention leather tool belt yep he's probably $300 but always better than that looks more like a garage Warrior type of deal
