    All right every Plumber has to 8:24 have a pair of channel locks 420and 440s preferably two sets of 440s A 10 inch crescent wrench and a 6 inch A pair of pipe wrenches small and big 25 ft tape measure metric and standard Allen wrenches and a set of torx for those oddball jobs Ridgid one stop wrench for angle stops and Pasco half inch Farrell nut puller. And other than that you could basically do whatever you wanted being a apprentice plumber another thing you might want to look into is a nice plumbing torch

    Reed deburring tool.

I'd take a bone saw. Pipe wrench stays on truck and hammer goes in bag. Big fan love your material. Sincerely year one apprentice.
