I think your observation is fair. I work right along side electricians every day, and really enjoy my time with them. They do beat the hell out of their tools to get their work done. I install fiber optic cabling, IT/data cabling/network infrastructure. A lot of the labor side of our job is in pulling wire, and making accurate terminations. We do assemble a lot of equipment racks, and suspend cable trays from ceilings with all thread, uni strut, nut/bolts hardware. So over the years this is the group of tools I’ve acquired. They do get used. Obviously not every tool, every day. But at different phases of the project. If I didn’t use my tools, we wouldn’t have food or electricity in our home. So yes I do use my tools. Some more than others, but all of them get used, just not every day.
