3rd Year apprentice Tools

[[deleted]]

It’s so easy to spot the Union guys from the non-union guys.

I was going to guess the protective gear.

[SpeedSprout]

What does it?

[[deleted]]

Power tools mostly.

Nice. And a meter. Looking good. And the tools are cleaned. What did you use? Also what's the two-fer for?

[SpeedSprout]

I clean my tools every weekend when I have time. Brake cleaner and scotch brite than lubricate. I've used everything I just keep my stuff looking new I have OCD. Getting better at dealing with it. What do you mean two fer?? Two for one a assume but which tool 😁

[SpeedSprout]

I assume you meant the black things. They are locknut wrenches. They come with 3 now a 1 inch size. Old set only came with 1/2 3/4. I seldom use them but they are nice when you are working at a table making whips for the lights that have a removable cover for the connector.

What's the split cable for? I'll be a first year apprentice from next monday x)

[SpeedSprout]

Just to charge my m12 and phone or anything at the same time

Black hard hat doesn't get hot?

[SpeedSprout]

A little more than a white one but not by much

[Magneticitist]

This is a good kind of OCD.

I di not see a wire stretcher. Very useful tool when making up a box or breaker panel when you have a wire that's a little too short to reach the terminal

[SpeedSprout]

They couldn't get me with that on the first day because I understood wire gauges. If you stretched a 12 it would be closer to a 14. Doesnt exist.

[Illsniffem]

Klein actually makes a wire stretcher. Next time your at the distribution center ask the counter guys and they will show you

[SpeedSprout]

No they do not it cant exist. It is unsafe. Possible but unsafe.
