In today’s video I go over every tool I have in my tool bag, Still can’t believe I’m actually an electrician and how far I’ve come doing this only 8 months. These are all of the tools I’ve accumulated thus far, it’s so many more I know I need to get but I’m grateful for everything that I do have. With that being said I hope everyone enjoys the video! Like & Subscribe and I’ll see you in the next one!

In today's society of instant gratification, it's great to see young people getting into old trades, starting at the bottom but still having a passion for the work. Keep up the great attitude and you'll go places.

The first thing I was told as an apprentice, was to not spent money on tools that you see other's with. It's like keeping up with the Jones' and it's not gonna help with the budget starting out. Buy the basics and work with what you got and when you get more knowledge and time under your belt, then the money grows, then and only then, buy the more "worthy" tools.

@TheApprenticeToJourneyman 5 месяцев назад

I agree with you, Get what you can afford & stay in your own budget!👍🏽

Use an M12 Fuel Impact with their 2 or 2.5 HO batteries. Compact and light, you’ll use that for most jobs, invest in M18 Fuel for the rest of your products as they have a bigger ecosystem to buy into than M12. This is if you’re going Milwaukee route.

@VictorGarciaR 6 месяцев назад

Before jumping into the M18 line, consider the M12. For most things it is powerful enough and it is so much lighter and more compact. Only problem would be tool options, as maybe you need something that they do not offer. But for a drill+driver+sawsall+bandsaw+cut-off tool they have you covered

@TheApprenticeToJourneyman 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Victor, I’ve heard and done some research and the M12 doesn’t sound bad at all, Most people tell me to get the m18 because it’s stronger.. But I’m leaning towards the M12 we’ll see what happens for Christmas! Thanks again for the support & Merry Christmas!🙏🏽

@VictorGarciaR 6 месяцев назад

@@TheApprenticeToJourneyman Merry Christmas and thanks for the reply. I got into the m12 line because I found a second-hand drill for cheap. And I loved it from that moment. Maybe a truck mechanic needs the extra power that comes with 20 volt tools like the m18, but for most scenarios the m12 wins due to size and weight. Instead of 2 tools (like your ryobi drill+driver) you can pack 3 in the same space. Who recommended M18? With due respect, but in the last years lithium batteries have improved a lot. Maybe they are 15 to 25 years older than you, and back in the day 12v was underpowered. But I have seen m12 impacts removing lug nuts!

@TheApprenticeToJourneyman 6 месяцев назад

A few people at my job recommended the M18, I’ve tried them they seem nice just a little out of my price range right now..

@DDuffeeInc 7 месяцев назад

Be sure and put some type of tracking devices s much as you can on your tools. At least the more expensive tools. I have my truck stolen a few years ago and they took my pouch which was 20 years old at least. It was older but it was broken in to it fit all of my tools just right. It took years to get it that way. Now I have a new Klein leather pouch and it is not broken in so getting the tools in and out take a lot of effort. You are right when you say it will take time. Remember that with the electrical industry. Time and experience are your best teachers.

@TheApprenticeToJourneyman 7 месяцев назад

Thank you! sorry to hear about your truck getting stolen especially with your tools, that’s very unfortunate. I didn’t even know they made trackers to put on your tools I’ll definitely check it out. One Day At A Time, Thanks again..🙏🏽

Before I would have a knife in my pocket all the time It was never really that sharp. Now I have a small folding razor blade so much better to just change the blade vs sharpen a knife for me. But I also have a 2nd razor blade that I keep fresh and just use it for striping bigger wire. And I will change out that blade as soon as it starts to get a bit dull.

@TheApprenticeToJourneyman 6 месяцев назад

I understand Justin, I really do like my razor it’s a little annoying when the blade gets dull really fast. I’m definitely still going to keep it I might just get the knife to see which one I like better. Thanks for the suggestion & the support!

@codyhoward6509 6 месяцев назад

Good kit you’ve got! I’d recommend getting yourself some knipex cobras and a set of their pliers wrench. Klein also just came out with a 9 in 1 hollow shaft nut driver that is so much better than the 7 in 1 IMO. M18 fuel stuff is expensive but don’t be afraid to go with the M12 fuel tools. They’re cheaper, smaller, less power for sure, but will do 90% of what you need.

@TheApprenticeToJourneyman 6 месяцев назад

I appreciate it Cody! I’ve heard nothing but great things about knipex hopefully in the future I can finally get me a pair. I haven’t seen the 9 in 1 from Klein I’ll definitely check that one out. I feel the same way about the m12 fuel tools, but everyone who I work with says it’s going to be a waste of money so I’m torn in between which one to get.. Thanks for the support!🙏🏽

Keep doing that believe me some will give you an opportunity! You got this..🙏🏽
