    Great vid and runthrough too.
    I swear by Bahco adjustables, have the 3 pack. Head and shoulders above competition.
    I think they are widely used in the marine world on ships etc due to their bullet proof quality!
    Thumbs up.

      Thanks bro!! The bahco have been my go to since I was an apprentice, but in recent years the knipex pliers wrench have taken over

    I have the velocity rogue 6.0 for general maintenance & the 5.0 backpack for breakdowns. Nice to see other heating engineer's setups 👍

    • @ParkesPlumbing
      @ParkesPlumbing  4 года назад +2

      Not seen any rogue products in person. Heard they are decent

      @@ParkesPlumbing Top notch stuff bruv. They're up there with veto. I had the veto tech Xl but I sold it. Too many tool cases. I use the Stanley electricians tote for all my sweat gear. However I press more often then not, I'll solder if there's already soldered joints in place. Great review buddy.
      I need me some of those knipex square jaw water pump pliers. I'm using a rag with my knipex cobra's or bahco's to stop the chrome nuts from tarnishing. 👌

    Great video mate. Your toolbag lasted you two years so far, thats good! However, mine is a “USAG” tool bag, it is 6 years old and still going strong; just bought myself a second one for servicing and breakdown last year; I absolutely recommend them, top quality.

    Nice setup man! I had an OTMC but I ended getting rid of it for a tech LC. Nothing wrong with it just needed more room for big repairs.

    Love the setup! I myself carry a toolbox (Raaco T33) because I can stand or sit on it when working.
    I carry 6”, 10” and 12” channellocks, 2 bahco spanners, spanners up to 24 (mix of open end, combination and ratcheting spanners), small bitset, junior hacksaw, selection of screwdrivers, inbus set, needlenose pliers, sidecutters (dykes and linesmen), klein wirestrippers, mini pipe slice and a clawhammer.
    Then there are the meters and cleaning tools of course.
    It not that heavy + I use all of it. Ideal setup for me.
    I have a second toolbox for installation jobs and less often used tools

    • @ParkesPlumbing
      @ParkesPlumbing  4 года назад

      Eustace King thanks for watching bro .. multiple tool boxes or bags is the way forward.

    • @eustaceking2164
      @eustaceking2164 4 года назад

      Parkes Plumbing yeah, I know guys who carry the big toolboxes with just about everything in it.
      Can’t find what you need when you need it AND you carry everything all the time.
      Nothing like climbing 2 flights of stairs and a ladder with a 50lbs toolbox when all you need is a 10” pumpplier and a phillipshead screwdriver.
      I’d rather walk twice than fucking up my joints!
      I carry 6” knipex alligators and a 3mm slotted screwdriver in my pocket, you’d be amazed how far I’ve come with only those things haha!

      Nearly 2 years on and it’s still got the same tools in ha

  • @shaun811
    @shaun811 3 года назад +2

    Did you ever think about upgrading to the OT-LC? Seems a bit cramped. Kind of torn which I want to go with. OT-XL seems a bit to big so LC seemed like a nice sweetspot.

    • @ParkesPlumbing
      @ParkesPlumbing  3 года назад +1

      Nah it’s perfect for what I need. Nice and compact

  • @Matthew-cc6ey
    @Matthew-cc6ey 4 года назад +1

    Nice set up . Thoughts on the knipex minis? What size knipex wrench and multi grip would you recommend to cover most domestic jobs ?
    Cheers from Australia

    • @ParkesPlumbing
      @ParkesPlumbing  4 года назад +2

      Matthew Pappin thanks for watching bro .. the minis are great but for day to day plumbing, get the 300s

    Now then... Do you recon a u gauge and long screwdrivers would fit in the ot mc ok? I'm not keen on digital gauges.

    Hi want to buy wera nut spinner for taps. Is it 10mm and 13mm I need thanks from a novice

    • @ParkesPlumbing
      @ParkesPlumbing  3 года назад

      What kind of taps mate? If you’re on about normal tap bodies then you’ll be better with an adjustable spanner. Box spanner for tap back nuts

    • @pault3705
      @pault3705 3 года назад +1

      Hi have box spanner i meant the small hex type mono blocks

    • @ParkesPlumbing

  • @fthplumber
    @fthplumber 3 года назад +2

    Definitely these are essential tools as I nearly have the same set just different branding on some of them.
    I'm only buying this bag when I become a bling bling plumber. Too over priced!

    • @ParkesPlumbing
      @ParkesPlumbing  3 года назад +1

      I’ve had this bag 4 years now and it’s not got a scratch on it .. toughest wearing bags ever
