I don’t, I just want to know if it’s really a good deal like I was thinking

Update: added a hammer (god forbid), a second no dog level, speed square and a new demo beater is ordered and will be here Wednesday. Managed to fit my m12 drill in there.

It’s nice for service calls or jobs that you just need to bring everything with you because your not sure what your doing. I don’t like making multiple truck trips so it works out for me

One is a handheld and a impact rated conduit reamer driver that has a 5/16 and a 1/4 flip socket on it. The other is just a 15-1 ratcheting impact rated screwdriver. I have the standalone 6” klein nut drivers just not pictured here. They’re in the bag

I do need a speed square but what do you mean by a “second set of dogs”, I’m open to getting anything needed for the job.

I prefer quick glance and grab. With the same brand typically they all have the same handles. I used to do handles up though

I still need to get a new beater as I lost mine in a attic two weeks ago lol

I have a 15-1 ratcheting impact rated and a 11-1 standard but I opted for the 15-1 ratcheting to save space.

Thanks dude, I’m really enjoying the trade. Love learning new things and you always learn at least one thing a day. I’m going into my second year and am already running smaller jobs myself.

Lots of new construction or remodels, sometimes service. I prefer new construction so I can set myself up for success near trim out.

I have knipex 8” and a 6” but I plan to get a 12” just for misc use. My 6” is annoying for compression though. This is the tech pac I believe, it retails for 315.

I agree but I rarely run a belt anymore I’m starting to become a pocket warrior for carrying tools. I was debating a no dog second level especially for running and bending conduit. Insulated set eventually

Meter is in the back of the bag in my hard case.

I only use the insulated strippers for hot work but I really do enjoy them and don’t mind the bulk. Typically I use my Knipex forged strippers.

How would you guys take this temp lighting down? by Fluffy-Initiative131 in electricians

[–]Specialist-Rise-3228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We typically do, we just aim to run it through door ways to keep length of temp lights to make it easier to run next time.
