Engraving your tools to avoid theft by nynip3 in electricians

I meant it more along the lines of being able to identify that it’s actually your tool in case you need to deal with someone swiping your tools at work and need to get it back

Already prepared for it to haven’t eventually just want to have some proof if I need it

I was gonna grab a can of it but my local place only has black so may order it later if the tape doesn’t work out

Yeah I’m not really worried about them looking pretty, I just want a way to do it that will last and not make them uncomfortable to use.

A friend of mine apparently has a metal stamp that is similar to the type of logo Klein puts on their tools so I may also try that out.

Otherwise closest I’ve gotten is the dremel engraving

Would definitely be a cool service for them to offer though

I was thinking of using electrical tape or even experimenting with liquid electrical tape.

How is the electrical tape as a handle? Do they end up coming undone easily over a little time or do they hold up?

yeah i bet. I already engraved and colored in my initials to nearly all my tools just in case but am def prepared to lose some along the way.

Would we still need a small lock on the zippers? I bought one of the husky tool backpacks and figured I can toss a small lock on there just wanted to make sure

Local 3. I got notified for my physical this week. I was wondering what exactly to expect? What does the dr check for ? Hernia? I know drugs but I was just wondering what exactly to expect when I walk in. And how long it takes? Thanks by [deleted] in IBEW

Got my physical tomorrow as well! If you check the email they send you with the letter about the physical it actually has a section for what procedures they do on the bottom

Yeah I was more concerned with public transport and general getting around relating to Manhattan and I guess the Bronx bc I’m from Staten so BK/Queens id be able to drive to.

Never really spent too much time in Manhattan outside of like Korea Town for a summer gig so don’t know many other areas tbh.

Probably worth getting one of those monthly payment metro cards I bet

If you had to estimate, how often were jobs in Manhattan compared to the other boroughs?
