Watch me upgrade my DIYer loadout tool tote in real time! Riveting stuff here! Knipex, Klein, Channellock, Icon, Wiha, Bosch, Toughbuilt, Wera, Craftsman, Makita, and more!
Carry the Milwaukee one everyday and never knew about the blade storage, i like it even better now 🤣🤣
I hear this all the time! You think they would advertise it!
Hart is owned by the same Chinese company as Milwaukee so Im not too surprised it holds up to the fastback
TTI is not a Chinese company, although much of its manufacturing is done in China. It owns Hart, Milwaukee, Rigid, Ryobi, and several other brands. However, just because they are owned by the same conglomerate does not mean they are the same company. The companies have nothing to do with each other outside of IPO. Design, manufacturing, materials, and quality control are not the same. It's the same as automobile manufacturers. TTI acquired Hart, a few years ago for their line of hand tools before their deal with Walmart happened. I REALLY wish they were the same as Milwaukee, then we could get great tools for cheap. It would be a nice hack! But alas...Hart tools are not Milwaukee. Thanks for the comment man!
@@NickDoesThings- Thanks for clarifying! That's great the companies have autonomy but I would still consider TTI a Chinese company as their headquarters are in Hong Kong and they are on the Hong Kong stock exchange. It did make me go look up TTI a bit more though. Its interesting that on their webpage, the about us mentions nearly nothing about Hong Kong but on their company history page it is completely opposite, focusing on their history as a Hong Kong business and timeline for acquiring their various sub companies. Thanks and happy new year.
Milwaukee fastback all day every day even bought another one recently after a year to have at home and the older one now at work it’s juts a good solid tool honestly 😎😎
right on man
Ive been using the fastback for years. Where did you get the tough built?
@@jefflips8189 I bought it at Lowes before they stopped carrying toughbuilt stuff. You can still find it online if you look. Sometimes it’s call “electricians 5 in 1 with pry bar” or something like that.
I've had the Hart and the Milwaukee FastBack. I currently daily the fastback. It's lighter weight, a little less bulky than the Hart...but most importantly, I can reach into tighter spaces with just that little bit of extension I get from the flipout on the fast back. The Hart I just ran into too many issues with the frame getting in the way before I could reach whatever I was trying to screw in/out. The Hart is a great product for the money, but if you can spare the few extra dollars, I highly recommend the fastback over the Hart.
@@falsif13d20 thanks for the comment. I was running the heart for a while and sure enough, the little blue clip broke. Well, just a piece of it did. It now only holds 3 of the 4 bits. Still, that’s three bits.
I think i like the milwaukee one because it has the bottle opener, and it's also a good size, not too big or small. Then, second, is the toughbuilt that has the pry bar. Got me sold on these.
@@SmashKing9156 my thoughts exactly bro.
The klein's blade will lock in different positions, and the klein gives you an extension to reach screaws and bolt heads that are in tight places the others cannot reach !!! My little short stubby scredrivers hardly ever get used... same concept with the shoet tiny drivers on most of these knives... If the screw is in a spot you need 2-3 inches of reach , these other knives just will not reach on their own.
Got one of those wiha bit drivers almost a year ago and it is insane how well it holds the bits. I’ve noticed that they have gone way up in price. I’d like a smaller one
@@KosmicHRTRacingTeam I paid 35. Sort of steep in my opinion. But still worth it because I do think they are the best or cost to it. I noticed they have an ESD version that looks like it is smaller. You may swing by and check that out.
Are the Wiha's German made or Vietnamese made?
@@aussiehardwood6196 great question. They are all German made. I ordered them directly from Wiha. I think you only get the Vietnamese made ones if you buy them from a big box store or the like.
joke was the best part of the video
@@aaronr2791 oh no! That’s not saying much. Should I quit RUclips? 😅
I carry the Milwaukee everyday and I didn't know it has one blade storage 😅 on it, thank you so much, now I know
I don't know why they had to hide it! Seems like a feature they would want people to know!
Too bad the smaller allen keys does not have the rings on them
Agreed! I personally would rather carry the small ones. The longer ones are a challenge to get in my bag without being in the way. And I don't use allen keys every day so I would rather be able to tuck them away.
Do an in-depth review on the socks 😂
😂😂😂
Hi Nick, I enjoy your reviews, I just started my channel 7 months ago. You’re a natural at reviewing tools, I just subscribed please keep them coming. I just did a short on the Centrofix. I really like it too
Thanks, my friend! I'll go subscribe to your channel. I love tool show and tell time. RUclips sort of puts us all in each others' garages to hang out with tool lovers all over the world.
I picked up a bunch of Toughbuilt tools at discount at Lowe's over the last year and this knife was one of them and I absolutely love it. As someone mentioned, the blade/scraper it very useful in a lot of projects. It seems that most of their products are slowly disappearing from Lowe's...pity. Being a tool addict, I'll probably pick up a Milwaukee to try.
I love the toughbuilt stuff! I have the scraper version as well! So, I contacted toughbuilt and heard back from them. Their exclusive agreement with Lowes has ended, seems like maybe not on great terms... However, the company is gearing up the head strong into the future. I am interested to see if they end up in a chain store somewhere or just try to do the online thing. But the good news is, they are not forever gone as a company. Thanks for the comment!
I bought the Milwaukee based on all the reviews, but I was about to try and return it because I thought something was wrong with the blade holder, because it did not hold the blade tightly... I was watching your video and some others though, and it looks like yours is lose too... Is this normal for Utility knives these days? The ones I had 20 or more years ago were rock solid. Even the tiny folding Gerber(I think) one held the blade nice and tight... But all the ones you showed seemed to allow the blade to move when it was locked in... Weirdly enough the Hart seemed to hold the blade the best, but as it was not something that you actually deliberately showed, it is very hard to tell...
Great observation skills, my friend! To answer your question, it depends. I have found that some brands of blades have tighter fits on different knives. However, I just on several of the knives I have and found that all of them have some slop in the connection, even my non-flipping knives. I suspect that it is probably more common to see this than to see a totally fixed blade these days. I will say that this does not create a an issue for me, at least in the way I use the knife. However, it does mean that I take extra care to make sure that the blade actually clicked into its proper place. Thanks for the comment!
I believe you are overusing and misusing the word detent.
That's the same thing my college English instructors told me...wait...Mrs. Spurgeon is that you?!
Sadly, since a majority of Wiha tools are made in Vietnam its kept me away from the brand. If I could get the German made ones then I'd be all over it.
@@scoogs026 I feel you on that one. I’m also fussy about where my tools are manufactured. I will say two things concerning that: 1. If you order Wiha tools from their website, they are German made. Even Wiha tools USA are the German made ones. I have ordered a bunch and they are always made in Germany. I think the Vietnam tools are only if you buy them from a big box store or another retailer. This is probably to help their margins as they need to sell the tools cheap to Lowe’s or other stores. So since they need to sell them cheap, stands to reason they would save on their manufacturing costs. When you buy from Lowe’s, both Lowe’s and Wiha have to get paid. Yet, if you buy strait from Wiha, their margins are better so you can get German made tools from their website for the same price as Vietnam made tools from Lowe’s. 2. I did learn that the Wiha tools made in Vietnam, are made by Wiha specifically, not contracted. They actually own and operate their own Wiha manufacturing facility in Vietnam. So it isn’t like other brands who contract asian manufacturers to build their tools to their specs. I assume this makes a difference, especially as pertains to quality control. Thanks for the comment man!
@NickDoesThings- this is good to know! 👍🏻
I prefer Milwaukee's fast back, full knife blade with the folding screw driver. Not a fan of the utility blade for my job.
I've been eyeballing that one for a while. I might pick one up.
This is why I watch these, because I didn't know this existed. I know Wiha did a collab with the tec pack; nice to see the open top bag join in.
Yeah, I saw that other collab a while back, but for my purposes, I just like the open top stuff. So when I saw this bag I had to grab it. Also the price plus the free tools made it a no brainer. Thanks for the comment man!
Good stuff 👍🏼
@@PeterRambacher thank’s bud!
@NickDoesThings- I definitely like seeing cool tools and deals and what new things are out there. Keep up the good work. 👍🏼
A common thing i m Notice on the pocket clips except the toughbuilt they would all have to go. its either tip up or its wrong😊
@@dougbrown7150 say more man. Why do you prefer the other orientation?
Nice Job! I’m a connoisseur of fine utility knives myself!😂 Milwaukee makes some really good knives! They are just well designed, and they feel great to use! Hard to beat! I’m not a fan of Klein at all. After trying a few of their multi bit screwdrivers, I’ll probably never buy another Klein tool. Never tried Lenox or toughbuilt, but I might keep my eyes out for them. Hart has some cool looking tools, but I’m not sure if functionality is high on their priority list! 😂 I bought a few small ones out of curiosity, and they were almost unusable. Knives of last resort, you might say. Keep your eye on DeWalt! Their new knives are getting pretty nice, and they might just be a contender to duke it out with Milwaukee someday. They have a nice small flip out utility knife that feels really good in your hand. I’ve never been a fan of the flip out design, but they’re getting better every year. Milwaukee has a thin super sharp pocket knife that has a killer opening mechanism. You barely touch it, and it snaps out like a switchblade. I would love to see it on their utility knives. Anyway, THANKS for the review!
@@jray5363 right on man! I think I might do a big utility knife video in the future. I limited this one to flip outs that had a driver function. But I have a ton more. I don’t know why 😅. I do have a DeWalt! I love it. It’s not a flip, it’s a super robust knife as it is my go-to for tough jobs. Just used it to lay some shingles. I feel like people started sleeping on DeWalt recently, but they are such a strong brand and I almost always love what they put out. Thanks for the comment brotha!
That is the one thing I have never understood about bit holders I like the one on the Klein tools utility knife. that advertise they take one inch insert bits and also accommodate 2-in bits. Why does the bit holder only cover up until halfway of the retention indent meant for impact drivers ball retention. because they are made to only cover up until the retention indent you have all that wobble and slop. 1 in bits should be one and a third inch or however long it is until the bit gets past the indent and squares off above the indent for better 2 inch bit retention. My other complaint is why is it quarter inch and not a 9/32 bit or 5/16 bit. But that is a rant for another day.
Great video, love the long form content and seeing how you plan/put things together. I would love an update video on your tote setup and also maybe your other load outs (you mentioned an electric bag and using the pouches in another comment). Following and hoping for more content!
@@Floam7 thanks man! I am thinking about an update soon. Have used this setup on quite a bit of work and have made some changes. I will probably go the rough and electrical setup and a plumbing setup soonish as well. I have some other content recorded. It need to edit into videos. I recently moved and am renovating. Content will resume once I have my shop space set up.
Milwaukee updated their fastback with a ball joint pin which made me switch to Klein tools
If they switch back the design, I would definitely go back to Milwaukee
i've had the fastback for about a year and got a second one on sale 2pack under 20. may try the toughbuilt due to lever tool.
Add what your framing and roofing materials and cut siding so u can slip l- flashing behind siding then u will have to batt above
Do the roof put your flashing then reside that
Reside that wall…technically only the part above the new roof line.
Easiest way would be to put a piece of roof to wall transition trim directly over existing siding then bring a new water tight siding from the transition trim to the bottom of existing eaves.
I’m with tommyluke6407, that’d be the best way without changing your barn siding
Being that there is already a gap in your vertical boards. You're only option would be to put your step flashing in and then j-channel and vinyl siding up to the higher roof line to make it completely water tight
Put modified roofing on
On the Klein that is an extension so you have two choices, a short screwdriver or a longer one
Im a commercial drywaller and razor knifes are my main method of cutting to i feel like i can add some good insight after my hundreds of thousands of cuts with these things. No these aren’t my go to for most jobs, i use full sized razors mostly of the time. But there is always one of these in my pocket and they get used a lot when im doing smaller work or repairs so they get a lot of use still. The fast back was my best friend for years, nothing was even close. Until i got the klein. Its honestly pretty similar but i love the the driver design better but the main thing for me was the way it locks at an angle because that is crucial for a job like mine to not wear my wrist out on all these cuts. Definitely dethroned the fast back in my book
@@jimboneutron8399 thanks for weighing in! That is definitely a good argument for the Klein. I regret that I didn’t include that locking feature in my original post. I just didn’t know about it at that time. I pinned it in the top comment but more should have been said. Personally I don’t get the bit holder thing. I think the whole setup is a bit too fidgety. And anytime I have my driver I always have all my bits in the same case as the driver so I’m never at a place where I need a little bit holder. That said, a feature is a feature and if it is useful to someone then that settles it. Personally don’t think the trade off with the mechanical slop is worth it. I use my knife as a hand driver mostly and the slop made it a worse experience than the well designed driver in the fast back. I’m thinking about another video to compliment this one on full sized razors. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
@ i don’t remember the brand but in the flooring section of home depot they have one with a fat roundish handle and a curved design. For what i do thats the best option for full size. Your argument about the bit is completely valid. I just like it because i have an extra screw gun bit on me at all times and i use a screw gun all day long and they do get lost. If im actually driving a screw with my knife i take the driver bit off and put it in the short driver. I do it for outlet covers and stuff like that. Edit: its called Big Fatso Multipurpose Utility Knife at Home Depot. Literally the most comfortable knife to use for a job that has heavy razor use like drywall. Its in the flooring section so no one thinks of it.
Take your siding off and do it right!!!
Siding off?!? That seems excessive! I think I’m just going to cut it. I’m much more lazy than you 😅
Cut a channel and put a counter flashing in channel and over. Flashing
1.Surface mounted counter flashing above your step flashing. (Along with a bead of caulk) 2. Cut a 3/4" space where the siding meets the decking. Then, install the step flashing behind siding.
This is basically where my head is at. Cheers!
Best answer here. 👍🏾
The answer is yes
Cut the siding
Wall metal first, then apron.
Cut 3/8 recess....bend 1/4 90°...seal
Am I wrong...only being doing it for 20 years
@@michaeldart5646 I’m not sure I understand. Explain it to me like I’m 5 😅
Cut the siding up 6” Flash the wall , them install a rake trim board with a drip cap to cover the flashing
That sounds about right. Mmm hmm
Use metal shingles and put mastic under each one
Flash it all the way to old roof haha
Your vertical wood siding has half inch gaps between them so waters going to get in regardless. Youd have to put some kind of vinyl siding over the wood after you flash it to keep water out or add a 2nd layer of wood siding over the flashing like the other guy commented
Ah I'd pass on vinyl. All that j channel for a 18" area. I'd do concrete siding if you haven't installed anything. Lasts forever and that little area would prob be like 2-3 boards 😂
@@OldManLuffy good eyes! But that is where the batten boards go. I removed the old ones and will replace new ones after the new roof portion is installed and flashing is on.
@@NickDoesThings- there ya go good carpenters solve their own questions most of the tjme
Cut the siding with a circular saw or a multitool, then slide either ledger flashing, or even better, step flashing up under it.
You could probably use tin shingles like you would Flash a brick chimney
Replace it with dry wall lowkey
