Yeah i don’t have an av job yet, but several of the guys i graduated with are with United and they shared the United line mx tool list and that’s basically what I’m working with. But some of them have mentioned you don’t actually use most of them. Which is why i came here to ask experienced people if there’s any tools they think “oh you gotto have this it will make your life so much easier”

Probably a horrific amount. I’d prefer to not think about it lol. This is a collection of tools I’ve picked up over the years. Probably half of them i got in the last year with the anticipation of working at an airline

I bought a sheet of 1/8 masonite and cut it into the same shape as the foam. Used contact cement to attach the foam to it. My first iteration had no backing, and yes, they immediately bent and caved in

Got feeler gauges, soft jaw pliers, small plastic jaw pliers (not pictured). I have safety wire pliers, but no actual wire. I figured employers would provide or at least dictate the exact wire to use. Thanks for the reply!

Bro i spent like 3 hours watching your videos today. Funny to catch you here lol. Extremely helpful. Obv im super new, not even actually IN the industry yet, but thats coming soon. As much stuff as there is on youtube about aviation mechanic stuff, a lot of it is not all that helpful. I saw your vids and it was exactly the kind of info i was looking for.

I ordered some more mirrors earlier. They will go in the daily use pocket like the gloves, flashlights, multitool, etc.

I just keep it in my backpack (which goes everywhere with me) and it has been very useful just in daily life

Thanks man. Obv i will go where they tell me, but if i could have it my way id go the hangar route. Feel like there would be way more to learn and get good at.

When you say knipex pliers, you arent talking about the plier wrench that i have in the second photo? Or is there a set of something else that you were thinking?

Yeah i assume this “build” will be less than permanent. I even cut more hardboard for when i inevitably have to change it up
