23:04 the fourth mode is for screwing delicate metal sheets. It stops when your screw bottoms so it helps you not to destroy them holes.
Love how u put the pliers in the top row, I’m gonna repack mine tomorrow doing this way 👍
I like that Klein multi- tool nut driver, I am a lineman for a cable company and I use 1/4 to 1/2" and I have one of each in my bag. Having just one nut driver to carry and still have all the sizes I need is cool. I never knew they made that. Thanks for sharing.
I also own most of these hand tools if not all of them, as I’m a general maintenance contractor in the UK 🇬🇧 Mon to Fri and I renovate houses for myself on evenings and weekends, I buy the best tools as I see it as an investment because they last longer and work better.
I have several smaller Veto Tech MCT bags and run each one set up for different trades, Plumbing, Electrical, Joinery and then a General all in one type bag. I find that works well for hand tools as there nothing worse than having a huge bag full of gear and not being able to find what you want, when you want it. Smaller, job specific bags are the way to go.
Being organised will make you a better tradesman, bring you better, more well paid, repeat jobs, I tested this theory last year by really trying to organise my van, tools, work flow in general and the last 8 months have earned me almost 50% more than the 8 months previous. It makes you feel better about work too. I can’t recommend it enough, it changed my life in a big way.

Keep doing you bro.👊🏻 I have really enjoyed the content.
Bro I appreciate that!🙏🏼
great setup bro! i just upgraded my tool setup too with m12 surge and wera joker sets, work really great and high quality as well! enjoy your work and get that moneey. (from Hungary) Great content!!
❤❤ got one love it also the swap out panel’s are great ,,trouble is they can get heavy 😢😊😊
Thanks so much for making this video. Subbed and thumbs up. Great info and well done presentation. Have a great day! 😀
Thank you!
I worked my butt off all my and I was to be a warehouse manager at 18 but underpaid so I went into the trades but always felt underpaid and people that didn't work as hard but had fast mouths got paid more. I decided to take a pay cut to work for a brewery and started at the bottom and in 3 years I'm one of the head people more than doubled my pay and the best part is I'm treated great and appreciated. If you ain't making close to your worth move around and find what you like and good people
I'm drooling 🤤 great tools 😍
Broo thank you!
How did you decide on your joker wrench sizes? I'm used to having a full set of wrenches on my mechanics box. I just left industrial maintenence as an in house guy to be an industrial maint electrician as a contractor. I have to do more install work now. Love your videos.
Enjoy your videos, have the original color bag and alot of the Hand tools you have, hands down the best on the market, pricy but when you work hard you gotta play hard.
Don’t have your nice fluke clamp but have the 325 with fluke 875 and 117. They are amazing meters.
Thank you! It’s the best bag I’ve found by far. Yeah i don’t keep my new meter in there rn I keep it in my testing bag. It’s just easier to not have to worry about it when I’m installing
Another great video. I feel like a little kid watching your vids since we have about 90% of the same tools and bags. Im like I HAVE THAT. I HAVE THAT. I ALSO HAVE THAT. its like calm down but in my neck of the woods, everyone looks at me like i have 2 heads w my wera, knipex, o light, veto shit. Theyre like uhhh wtf is that foreign shit. My three favorite sleeper tools that id suggest to you would be the pica dry pencil, holstery belt magnets and the olight arkfeld pro. Thanks for another great video, mr west. And roll that Beautiful beater footage, one more time.
Load out is 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥.
Bro thank you!
Great content. Following from london uk
Bro thanks for the feedback!
You got a good point with that laser pen.
I see what you did there
❤ Olight and Knipex
Overall, nice pick of tools. I do agree that nothing beats Knipex in terms of pliers, cutters, wire strippers etc. and Wera screwdrivers. The only things I don't agree are the backpack and the Fluke. While the backpack is indeed nice, sturdy and very durable, I like my large Milwaukee backpack a lot and I'm thinking about getting the Stanley Fatmax, because it's a bit smaller and it has a removable tool bag inside, which can hold way more tools than most bags I've seen. The Fluke you have looks nice, but it has less features than my $40 Uni-T clamp meter and there's just no way I would spend $200 something that has the most basic features.
Great video i looked it couple of times a! wish i can send you photos of my tool box we use in Europe ti is suprisingly simmilar ! Good luck mate
Thank you! Feel free to connect on instagram. You should be able to there!
I send you message there , wainting to alow messaging . Tools all cleaned up , not like yours but decent 😅
Can you put a laptop (16") securely in the front of this bag, and tighten the two straps over it?
You just need Lineman/kleins, strippers, 11-1 screwdriver, beater screwdriver, 2 pairs of channel locks, torpedo level, tape measure and a voltmeter in your toolbelt. That backpack can stay in the truck. That’s all an apprentice needs at the beginning of his apprenticeship.
I start my apprenticeship next week and they gave me a list of tools similar to what you just said. Do you have recommendations on the channel locks to get? I wasn’t sure they meant to say 2 of them till I read your comment so I will defs buy 2 lol
@@josephkivett3526Channellock Vgroove 10”. Yeah you need two. Get some ECX bits for your Klein 11-1.
@josephkivett3526 knipex cobra three piece set. I'm an alligator fan cause I'm used to them but cobra is the recommendation
@@nickfarnham3321 He needs TWO ten inch pliers for press fitttings on conduit. He’s an apprentice. Just buy the Channellocks and save the money.
@thunderhammer1937 lol save the money.....yeah have an apprentice buy tools he's gonna hate and end up replacing. I'd let an apprentice have my knipex before I ever told him to buy channellocks
wheres that badge holder from
Have you tried Wiha’s pliers? I am a plumber and have seen knipex recommended but found Wiha on sale and love them.
Depends on what it’s for. They make really good pliers but I would choose the cobras over anything
NEVER point a laser at a camera. You will fuck up the censor
I appreciate the tip
Just watching this is making my back hurt. I think I will stick with my rigid packout and tool pouch.
I'm still waiting to see a video of thoes fancy new pannels that are $100 each for thay bag. They have a double pannel system you'd be my hero if you got it before I order a bag with the new pannels on spring promo so I dont waste my money.
I’ll do my best 🫡
Do you have a video on the torpedo level with the laser ?
I do not
is it sold anywhere for less that $330?
The part number that you posted for the Knipex cobalt bolt cutters is not the same as the part you showed. This is confusing because you said you also had a similar one that wasn’t as good. Can you please explain more about this because clearly the part number posted is not the same as the one you show in the video. The one in the video doesn’t have the spring in the middle like the one in the link.
Maybe when it goee on sale. You mentioned a spring promotional sale during your veto backpack/pouch video. Do you when that starts?
Usually march
Does knipex ever have sales???
@@FixItWithMe I don't know. You'd have to look online.
Did you end up ruining the blades on the knipex cobolt flush cutters? Ive been thinking about getting a pair for panduit straps (large zip ties) I use on flex duct.
Perfect for that
Do your self a favor and step up to the 10in you can cut small locks with it it's so strong
@@MattHmm-rq6dnI dont think my hand are big enough for how wide the grip gets on larger stuff. If I need 2 hands I use the milwaukee extandable handle bolt cutters. I did just pick up the 71 41 200 i like the angle head. Do yourself a favor and get a pair of 61 01 200 high leverage bolt end cutting nippers I bet you retire the 10".
Nice kit... no hacksaw? 😢 All good, but I'll make a suggestion of adding the klein tools circuit breaker finder which to bird stones the plug tester.
Yeah I don’t really ever need a handheld hacksaw and the circuit tracer lives in my second back if I ever need it. Both great tools tho!
Kline advanced tracer is great, got in a few months ago and used it so many times, very much worth the cost, will pay for itself after a few uses.
When you got money, you got money because $300 for a pen is outrageous 😂😂
People spend money on the things they like😂 I thought it was cool so I picked it up on sale
I have carried a Benchmade pen for the last 8 plus years, I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for.
When you work hard you have to treat yourself on things you like, it’s his passion and yes it’s a lot but he deserves it.
If you’re broke just say that!
I've wanted one for a while
So when you use a 3/8 ratchet, do you prefer the husky or the wera?
Check out 😢he harbor freight icon 3/8” ratchet- usually $30-40 and very high quality
Milwaukee tools only. I don't like mixing different colors
I feel that. I have mostly all knipex pliers and mostly all wera drivers. The brand thing is the only thing I won’t switch up form tool style to tool style
I have the same bag I like to keep a medical mag with everything I might need I have cold a hot patches just in case I pull my back eye drops burn creams and stuff like that definitely remanded having your own medical kit
That’s genius. Love this!
Definitely handy to keep a couple Band-Aids and maybe a few ibuprofen close-I’ve had many of my coworkers aske me for Band-Aids as they hold a bleeding knuckle in front of me.
I wanna get the Wera VDE drivers but I’ve heard the insulation can get in the way versus the slim tip version?
I don’t think they really get in the way super often except for on breakers. But even then. The slim line don’t have the lines on them for extra grip which is what makes wera special to me
The wera is more affordable I believe. They’re not expensive at all
Is there anything you leave in your bag to prevent rust in tools
U can leave silica gel packs that u get when u buy shoes…it helps absorb moisture in ur bag
With a name like "American Electrician" I would sure expect you to have more American made tools. But you do you
I know. I’m working on finding more American companies for the other stuff right now. I don’t feel like it’s advertised other than Kleins pliers
Wera makes the best Hex keys ( alan wrenches)
They are amazing
First, I love your channel and you do a great job, but why is it called American Electrician and most of the stuff you use isn’t made here?
I wish my tools could stay nice like that I’m a compressor mechanic and everything ends up black 😢
12❤ love from India 🇮🇳
🙏🏼🙏🏼
14:09 🤣
I want the tech pac but my girlfriend has fully convinced me to get the tech pac wheeler so I can save my back while walking across site lol
She sounds like a keeper still. The panels are a little different. I’d make sure you get the right panels for it to swap out for whatever you need if you do. You really can’t go wrong with veto
Man I want to get one but they are pricey. It does look like you get what you pay for tho...
Had the Ideal bookbag. I hated it.
It's a silent K in Knipex!😂
No, it’s not silent. The right pronouncing is actually with a hard “K” followed by a “ni” like “knee” and “pex”
@andreasmatt6745 well its silent in ireland and that won't change 😅
Those cutters were rusty AF!
Bad ass bag set up but my god if he pronounces Knipex wrong again I will lose my mind.
He says it right
Kuh-nip-ex is the correct pronunciation.
here’s my beater screwdriver
yeah dude i’ve seen it in 7 videos now
I agree
I’ve spent the whole week working on getting some new stuff to bring you guys. I also do love my beater and not everyone’s seen it so it wouldn’t make sense not to show in my loadout
Lol. Make your own channel. This is for people that like tools.
Flathead screwdriver? What? Do they make panhead screwdrivers too? Washerhead? Buttonhead? Bladed, standard, slotted.
Where are you from
You know for being an American electrician, you do own a lot of European tools. Nothing against wera or wiha but if it aint klien it aint mine
Have you ever tried the Wera drivers?
$300 for a pen is only worth it if the pen can actually keep up with you when you're misplacing it.
I haven’t misplaced it yet 🥲😭
O light is fire when not using em for weapons. I have two of the arkfelds. The og one and the pro. Both are amazing and well worth the money. A lil more functional than a pen, i will say. Super bright light and laser and the other has the light, laser and uv light. They last for at least 2 weeks when used on medium which is plenty of light. The milwaukee and klein lights are garbage compared to olight. Check em out, szam bacsi
First !!!
🙏🏼
I understand everything in this video.. except that mustache lol
It’s part of the lure
Honestly I started a video with it and have been going through revisions for 2 months now and haven’t been able to shave it hahahaha
Haha fair enough mate. It looks good and my wife says your mustache is called "the tickler" 😂 I want my beard back.
Thank you😂😂😂
Get it back!
Смотреть было бы приятнее если бы эта морда не мелькала в кадре
i need to stop watching your tool showcasing videos cause I always find something expensive that I really want to spend money on..
you mean once you went black you never went back!
American electrician using German tools?🤔
Sometimes 😂
Too heavy
Why would any one take tool advice from a 20 something who still carries his tools in his bookbag ? ? ?
Jealous.
Backpacks make sense sometimes. You can fit a lot in them and climb a ladder with them or a flight of stairs. Or you can lug them around and drop them in the middle of the job and use a pouch in between. That's what i do.
Other electricians who use a backpack and quality tools, go back to your ideal shit in your home depot nail apron pops.
Looks like grandpa forgot to take his meds again
