Cody some of the Williams tools you have linked here, say country of origin is China. Do you have links for the USA origin tools?
I hate seeing the affiliate links driving up the cost of these tools. Because of this your statement of the tools costing us the same isn't really true.
Is a chamfeer west coast talk for chamfer? Haha!
God bless you, Mrs. Wranglerstar, Jack and Sweatloaf!
"You are wrong!"
The wisdom you just displayed in the way you talked about your son is worth a great deal. It is wisdom that many parents especially today never comprehend or understand. "Do not sell yourself short you are doing an excellent job!"
(Your advice from a professional home owner today is something I consider worth hearing.)
@@TheFiremanJoe That's why I bought Klein screwdrivers - the williams set I found was China.
If there's room in the budget, I would consider a basic breaker bar essential for a basic tool set.
I know this series could be expensive to do and I know that this seems to be more mechanics focused but I'd love to see more after this series on other types of tools. (Carpentry, Powertools, etc.) This series really gives me the fiz.
There was a common man's carpenter tool box for woodworking series he did a few years back.
I think it would be hard to find power tools made in the USA, the only one I can think of is the top line of dewalt
@@kodywilliamson473 Nah Dewalt is only assembled in America I'm pretty sure. You should see "with global materials" at the bottom.
@@WalrusWinking yeah I looked it up after I commented. A true built in the usa power tool probably does not exist anymore
I agree I'm looking for carpentry things I've always thought this was the best place to find out what you been with no Bs included
Bless you, Cody, for recognizing that and letting Jack grow into being his own man... you're doing right by him.
appreciate the upload Cody, I'm just 21 and come back to this channel for lessons in masculine know how. there's less and less guys like you.
So good to see you recognizing your children's personal bents and talents. I struggled like you but now that I have two arrows launched, I saw they didn't want to be clones of me, but God had gifted them with different talents. May our kids bring a return to the Lord!
I remember growing up and how desperately I wanted to share my interests with my father ( video games, running, etc.) and because he was never good at it or understood it, he wouldnt join in. It caused a huge disconnect later on from him not even understanding what I enjoyed doing or being able to talk or share a big part of my life. I greatly admire you for spending your time doing and learning the things Jack enjoys.
Wow Cody, I am 23 and have always been super close with my father and we've butted heads a lot while doing projects together but he's my role model for sure and we do have very much of the same interests and it's refreshing to listen to the ideology of another dad. I live in an area where for some reason many of my friends do not have fathers in their lives so it's nice to see someone else who reminds me of my dad in many ways! God bless you Cody for being a great father!
Working as a heavy truck mechanic, my go to tools are snap on sockets, matco ratchets, Milwaukee cordless tools, Ingersoll air tools!
This series is not only entertaining, but it is in my opinion, a service. The quality/price ratio is astounding. Any young person who is starting a career in auto mechanics can benefit immensely from this information. Getting a full high quality kit for 1/4 the price is a money maker, as opposed to be a burdensome debt for someone starting out. As for the nit-pickers regarding the affiliate links goes, frankly, screw 'em, IMO.
That last part couldn’t be more true. My son got into Magic the Gathering, which is something I would have never found on my own. Now I wouldn’t trade those memories, both past and future, for anything. And it’s actually a fun game!
Thank you for the father son talk. As a new father of a 1 year old those are words I will remember for a very king time.
Your comments at the end about your relationship with your son were really refreshing. I remember growing up with a stepdad who was very work-minded and when we were together it was primarily to accomplish a chore or a job. Now that we're both older and wiser I think we treat each other differently, and a bit more of that mutual respect you mentioned that we may not have shared during those earlier days, to make up for some of those lost opportunities. We're both fairly quiet men who don't openly talk about things and growing up I remember having to work with him ended up being an awkward requirement I didn't look forward to. Nowadays, we're much better at enjoying each other's company and I'm glad that our relationship has improved.
Really good point about Jack's needs. I got such thoughts raising my 6 year old and now you gave me a great concept to work with her. Giving her the space to be the "expert" on something is a really wise concept. Congrats and thank you.
As a mechanic of almost 30 years. I can tell you hands down this is a quality set of tools. Thanks for putting this together Cody.
When I was in auto-tech I definitely was impressed by the quality of Snap-On tools but to be honest I think most of the time they're just overkill. Yes they are very reliable but how often do you actually find yourself in the situation where only the Snap-On can make the difference. If trying to take a bolt off breaks your ratchet it's a 50/50 chance that your tool actually is really cheap or you were using the wrong tool in the first place.
I've never broken even "decent" quality tools when using them s intended.
What I have done more times than I care to remember is lose expensive tools.
@@jamesb2291 What's funny is whatever number of tools I'm using for a job, that's the number of tools I loose during the course of that job. Halfway through I have to take a break just to hunt them all down.
Right, I just grab a ratchet and do a job, don't care who made the stupid thing, if it works, great. Most do.
I agree, when i worked in a machanic shop my craftsman would always go toe to toe with everyones Snapon and they didn't let me down.
Great stuff Cody. I love listening to men talk about how wonderful it is spending time with their children and can totally relate. Its tough when they dont share all of our interests but well worth the time to make an effort to enjoy their interests with them.
Love the tool series but the parenting advice here means more to me. Thanks so much.
Debate will serve Jack well! My daughter did LD debate for all four years of HS. She came in 2nd at state her senior year. I'm convinced that it was the debate team and competition (in addition to her excellent education at a private school) that opened up extraordinary options for her in college and her career.
Cody I've only been watching you for a couple of months . But I have much in common with you . I nod my head a lot listening to you . But the thing that I admire the most is your openness about your faith . I've always been an outsider because I didn't follow I reasoned and did what I felt was good and right . I had way too many bad influences growing up in FLA in the frig years . But I had a few bright beacons to steer toward as well . It's funny I find shows that I like on You Tube because of the topic or content . And more often than not I find out that I have faith in common with the host . God will lead you when you let Him . God bless brother .
People complaining about affiliate links? Give me a break. I would be happy to purchase these through your affiliate link. You’ve earned it and these videos provide tremendous value.
Hey Cody I would like to say that for what it's worth I love your channel and what you do with it. Hearing you talk about your son and the wisdom that you have in those areas has had an impact on my life with my own son. I'm still young and he's only 7 and im still learning every day, but thank you for all your words and keep it coming please. I'm glad that you've learned from your experience as a child growing up and are able to reflect and utilize that. We have that in common. Thank you for all that you do and say. In the words of Edward Murrow "Goodnight and Goodluck" and may God continue to bless you and yours.
An observation from a amateur homeowner. It’s interesting listening to your current relationship with Jack. When I reflect on my late teens I had no interest in my Dads interests. I thought they were dull and insular and went off carving my own furrow. Then in my late 30s my interests became the same as his and now in my mid 40s and he in his 80s we are still working on projects together. I’m always learning from him and I feel very fortunate I’ve got this opportunity. But there is a tinge of sadness I hadn’t realised all this when I was younger. My point being, it’s rare for the apple to fall far from the tree. We just think we know better when we’re join and want to have some control over our choices.
Thank you, Cody! This video series is tremendous, and I will absolutely be working to save up so that I can outfit myself with tools recommended by someone who I know I can trust. You are so caring and such a good father to Jack, but also keep in mind there are those of us who have lost our fathers, and so your content and the patience you show in teaching us through your videos comes through at least to me in a way that brings back great memories of the times I had with my father while he was still with us and the way he taught me the things he passed on. I know you pray for all of us constantly, and I try to do my best to pray for you and yours as well--but I must do better at that. I have gotten so much out of your content over the years, and a new video from you always brightens my day, regardless what the topic is or how long or short it is. God Bless you!
I couldn’t agree more with you when it comes to good quality tools especially ratchets. I’ve always been told “Buy Once Cry Once” but now with the Williams brand it looks like that may not be the case. Thank you for this series. God Bless
That’s an awesome tool set you’re putting together for Jack. I’m 36 and have great memories of the tools my mom and dad got for me. I always enjoy using them and having them. Craftsman used to be awesome, but they lost their way. Mine are about 17-18 years old. I’m lucky to have the good ones. Looks like the Williams brand might have taken their place. Those Snap-on’s are stupid expensive and not worth buying..
Your efforts towards making the best video content for all of us, is much appreciated and I’m sure I speak for many. Anyone that questions how you make money off this free education & entertainment you provide; is a Non-player Character in life and takes things only when there free.
God bless you & all
Williams is owned by Snap on and is their industrial line of tools. They are made pretty much from old snap on tools as the snapon progresses up with some of the chrome plating reduced in coverage. They are great tools.
Couldn't help but to laugh at your finishing line. I have 3 kids, 2 boys and a girl. I didn't really have a father figure to look up to when I was young and I find it so helpful to have your videos. It's let me know that as a parent, you never know if you're doing things right but it's ok as long as you put in the effort. Thanks for the videos Cody and keep up the great work 👍
I'll never forget getting my first tools on my 13th birthday. Each year after I would get something else. I had built up a pretty good set when I was in high school. One day I forgot to put my tailgate up when leaving school and lost it all. It was a bummer, but I learned from it.
I definitely agree that if you bought one top of the line snap-on tool it should be a 3/8” ratchet. Awesome series! Also awesome Dad message at the end. Very profound and appreciated.
I love the message you left in the end. Thanks for the insight. Top quality advice on tools and parenting from a top quality man 🙂.
Love all of your videos Cody. This one is special with you sharing your relationship with Jack! As a son and Dad with 2 sons I sincerely appreciate your efforts to see life from Jack’s perspective. God bless you!
When the wisdom of a professional homeowner echos the wisdom of biblical principles, it’s worth a lot Cody. Thanks for reminding us what humility, respect, and leadership look like within the home. Appreciate all u do.
Seeing you and Jack at the cabin before you went snow biking I haven't been more proud of you as a father and him as a young man than you two talking about video games and talking shop before hitting the trail.
I think what you said in the end about Jack being a person of his own, is the most important thing you ever said here, and you said many wise things of course.
Took a lot of learning from the heart to say that!
Thank you
So thankful for this series. I have a pretty diverse setup that I started as a teenager and over the years as I break things or wear them out I upgrade to better quality. I will definitely be taking Williams into consideration on my next purchase!
Also I really appreciate your outlook on raising kids.
Love the Psalms 127 reference. It’s so true. Raising 2 girls and trying to teach them the way they should go. But personality and intrest play a big roll in how you have to guide them.
I believe the wisdom of a Professional Homeowner is common sense. And we all know that common sense is very lacking in this day and age. Spending time with your kids is something that we don't see a lot of these days. Mentoring is so much more important than trying to be your child's friend. We are all different for a reason and I applaud you for seeing that and sharing and hopefully influencing others to look at their relationships with their family members.
You gave me lots to think about. My son is almost as old as you, but my grandson is my little buddy. We have so much fun together ,I hope he grows up liking everything we are doing together.
I am quite fond of Tekton mechanic's tools. I use their sockets and wrenches for basic car maintenance and have never had a problem. The prices are reasonable and the quality is good. Most of their stuff is made in Taiwan however.
you talking about playing games with your son made me respect you even that much more.i went through the same thing with my dad where, although i love working with my hands now and messing with tools, him barking at me or being a glorified flashlight mount so its cool you would take time to play video games with him which i wouldnt expect you to do at all lol
Thanks for the words of encouragement with playing with our kids makes perfect sense.
I have always use Craftsman tools and found them to be very good quality for a semi-pro homeowner like me who works on cars, boats, and motorcycles a lot.
The last 5minutes or so of your video really hit home for me. I appreciate all you do, and am intrigued by how you are successfully raising your family properly. Thank you for sharing your experiences
I like the fatherhood advice. As the father of a young child I try to soak up all the wisdom I can from these videos. Jack is a lucky guy.
I have to say that the videos I’ve seen with you and Jack in your environment, you’ve done a great job instructing him as he works with you and providing him insights into why things should be done the way they are.
Thumbs up for the tools, and another for the great fatherly advice.
Hey Cody, I’m a fan of these tools videos and all you’ve put into them! I just rewatched your common man wood working tool series and I think we are over due for a wood working project. Thanks again for all you do.
I use impact sockets for the lug nuts on my vehicles. They're just stouter in case the auto shop really cranks the lug nuts tight. Also truck lug nuts are on at a pretty high torque.
And thank you for the affiliate links. It helps me buy them without having to search all over again.
Wrangler brother you deserve every penny of commission from your affiliates link! This information is top notch and your time isn't free just like everyone else. Also, Dad of the year goes to you for gifting these to your boy!!!
Thanks for dropping this video series I really appreciate it as a young man
I was supplied with Britool tools when I started working in an oil refinery well over 25 years ago. Despite working on the heavy mechanical side of things, I have never had a tool break on me and still have most of the tools that I started with. Those that went missing were either misplaced or "grew legs and walked". The 3/8 flex head is around the same price or less than Williams. just another option.
I love the Britool. Got a lovely merchandisers display recently.
No issue here with the affiliate links. You mentioned it and btw it is super helpful when I buy them. It is like learning of a best practice/hack from a friend… also, glad that the WS channel gets the direct benefit!
I have always bought good quality tools and for some reason I have never been around Williams tools. I kinda wish I was earlier in life. I would have saved a LOT of money. Lol. Love the series.
you're helpful in telling people about where to get the tools. cheers mate
I scoop up tools at resale shops. It takes awhile but saved a bucket of money.
It was good to hear you say a ratchet is the one snap-on tool you would buy, that's exactly what I did, the fine tooth on its is so useful!
Great video!
I wish I had a father like you was I was young. Mine was completely absent. Thank you for your content and may God continue to bless you and your family
Hey Cody. I really appreciate this series. On the Note of the nay sayers and the people "calling you out", while I don't necessarily agree with all of your ideals and views, I do appreciate what your source message is. I like how you dont apologise for it and applaud you for not being to them. Keep doing what you're doing and dont "change the direction of your arrow" I'm saving up for my own set of tools. Need a bigger shed to keep em in though.
Thank you for the valuable insight into the relationship with your son. I will apply the wisdom you shared to continue building meaningful relationships with my children. May God bless you and your family.
You'll really love that pin lock when you have a long extension attached and your reaching way down inside something and all your ball lock sockets keep falling off while your trying to work.
wow i really admire you opening up at the end i honestly wish my pops was as wise as you absolutely jotting this down for when I am blessed enough to have a son or daughter or both lol.
I appreciate greatly the fact that you let Jack have his own interests and try participate in these. Wise words
Cody, I know sometimes we all need time off but this series began with and has always had until this episode a co-host (Mama Kitty) and it just wasn’t the same without her lol, Jokes aside I am also a 50 year old father, and I agree that there needs to be moments where we teach but we can also learn from our children. Respect is a two way road. And knowing your place in the home starts with that
It's really great to see this series and to see someone explaining the difference in quality in tools.I'm a mechanic here in the UK and there are so many cheap Chinese made tools on the market which are such poor quality some are just dangerous iv had tension on big bolts with cheap sockets and they've split clean in half and injured my hand after that I never baught any again it's worth spending that bit more to know your gonna be safe and not round any bolts off too which is also another problem with them too.Great series Cody really interesting to see thankyou 🙂
I actually preferred the last three minutes of this video over the entire video itself. Thanks for sharing your experiences raising a child.
Thank you sir, and as always you and yours are always in our prayers.
I'm at with my dad I love spending time with him and he would do things that I like to do that he probably really didn't like to do and that's what made it so special between me and him❤
I’ve already started my list and purchased my first two items from your Amazon link. Thanks Cody. I got tired of the extortion from the tool trucks and finding American made quality tools is one of the hardest things to do outside Klein or channel lock.
This is an awesome series. I don’t have a problem with the Amazon affiliate link, and hope it’s still viable when I buy my set of Williams tools next year.
Really appreciate you putting the time and research into finding quality USA made affordable tools. It’s a huge help.
Well said Cody, I’m going to share your words of wisdom with my sons and grandsons !
As a tool junkie this series really gives me the fizz, I'd like to see more series on setting up basic carpentry tools, outdoor hand tools and power tools for the average homeowner.
I've been really enjoying this series!
I have craftsman sockets and ratchets I bought in the late 80's. Good enough for what I do, however I have added. Stanley, proto, mac, harbor freight, husky and lowes brand. All work well. I am going to invest in those magnetic plastic holders, i like how they shadow the sockets. Nice video sir.
Great overview of sockets. Ridge to push bolts in is a big benefit. That's so neat that Jack has a knack for debate. I would freeze up.
a few years ago i began playing video games with my son as well for the exact same reason i realized that all the time we spent together was doing things i wanted to do and began to feel selfish so i looked at his biggest interest and decided to join him and let him be the teacher for once instead of always being the student. and its been some of the best times Ive had with him. its not about the video games its about the time spent together that you both will never forget.
Being Canadian, we come across our neighbours SAE now and then, so two sets here too.
In Canada, Canadian Tire has its house brands which are Mastercraft and Maximum with the latter being the pro line.
Both are fantastic, both are warranties forever. Both regularly go on sale for 50-80% off. So if you are patient, you can have a full set within a year for cheap.
The warranty, I brought a socket I broke while using on an impact gun. It was 26 years old. No receipt, just bring it to the tool dept and they'll swap for new.
Thanks for the input on a man’s mechanic tool kit. I’ve used Husky for 14 years. Works for me and a lifetime warranty. Just my opinion but I come out on the better end financially. Also, nothing has broken ever and have never had to use a pick to take sockets off.
I am with you, only with Craftsman. I guess top end tools are nice, but to me a loosened or tightened bolt is the same whether it was done with Craftsman or a Snap-on socket. To each his own, but I am an amateur and the Craftsman tools fulfill their purpose to me and spending more would be a waste.
Thanks to you I have been buying a mix of Snap On and Williams tools and I don’t regret it at all….
your empathy and compassion and willingness to sacrifice your own interests for your son is a lesson he will get without you having to say so.
Man Cody, your points hit home. I right there with my son as well. So many similarities in our relationship (HS, CC, Debate). I’m working on this as a father as well. Thanks for the encouragement.
Thanks for doing this. I have begun buying these quality tools.
Cody, thanks for this series, good stuff. I bought a bunch of Williams USA made sockets a while back, and while the machining, broaching, ect were all top notch, the batches I got all had inconsistent Williams logo stamped on them. Its as if they changed the Williams logo die half way though the run, and mixed all the sockets together, and I mean some were all mixed together on the same rail. Some rails were all the same, others random (I bought 6 sets). This is a minor point I realize, but with my OCD it got the best of me. Maybe they have fixed that now
I have lots of old Williams tools from my grandad, they were related companies back in the day (maybe they still are?). Some tools were identical to snap-on counterparts. I'd recommend them as well, great tools.
Hey Cody! This video was awesome, I love the message that you had at the ending portion of the video. I agree with you 100% about how it’s important to understand both sides of a relationship, especially me being a son of my father. That lesson about how the children you raise are the quiver on your arrow will stick with me for a long time. That lesson is something I will share will many because of you. God bless u and your family and I wish jack the best of luck!
I agree with you about your parenting skills with Jack I had the same thing going on with my son and had a recognize he was a person.
This is a great series. After this series is done please do more like carpenters tool box or electric tools box etc.
Couldn’t agree more on the parenting advice at the end.. another great video Cody. Thank you for this content. Will definitely be getting this setup when I make an auto tool collection.
The wisdom of a professional home owner…priceless!
This is going to help so many people building their first quality tool set.
Best video series! Hope you make more with other types of tools. I like the idea of not many tools but tools that will last a lifetime and have many uses. Waiting for the tool cart and to order sockets!!
Hey Cody. I very much so, appreciate your point of view.. and I honestly haven't ever looked at it like that. As far as our kids and ourselves. So thank you. Also thank you sir the tool into. That's awesome. I'm adding everything to my buy later tab in Amazon. So I will definitely be purchasing once I can afford to. Thanks again brother.
I would recommend a ratcheting handle 3/8” ratchet. I have a bostitch ratchet with the ratcheting handle that I have used for years now and it’s amazing!
Top call on the Williams drivers, I bought a whole set of Williams drivers for £120! Less than 1/4 of the price of the snap on branded drivers
Much respect Cody! Great addition to the series and great parental wisdom as well.
Perfect metaphor at the end! Very true!
Train up a child in the way THEY should go. Good on you for embracing what Jack likes as well. Good parenting!
Nice series. I’m going to put in my 2 cents. Save yourself some money, and buy a good quality thin wall impact sockets and skip the chrome. (Good quality defined as will warranty when broken) Saves space in your box and keeps from having duplicates. Me personally I will use my impact sockets over the chrome 90% of the time.
I've been a mechanic for a long long time and I have most of the big brands in my boxes. I won't buy anything but snap on for my work tools. My home tools are a mixed collection of husky and kobalt tools . I only buy American made tools for work .
