- This video is about what i carry in my 2 Tool bags, one for breakdown repairs and the other for more extensive repairs and boiler Installs and plumbing repairs. All the tools seen are my own and No sponsors were hurt in the making of this Video ! Thanks for watching.
No locking pliers/molegrips. Extra pair of hands missing from your bag and the number of times when molegrips have got me out of trouble when everything else slipped.
Very instructive video.
Molegrips. The life saver ! 😅
1:56 If it’s fernox; you have to cap off the appliance 😂
I like new toolbag with claen instrument very mach. Thanks for your video.
Why the Hell am I watching this a year on 😂🤣😂👍💯🤦♂️
why am I watching this 4 years on 😮
Thank you for your time making this loads of ideas for my tool kit and few upgrades
Michael Harrison great working on a solder bag as we speak 👍
Nice to see a good honest kit bag.
Tom Coles much appreciated.. 👍 And thanks for watching. Don’t need all the gear if you have no idea or ideas. Work hard and do your best that’s what I say.
Great videos....nice to see your little helpful ideas.....your making me want to clear my garage out,and get a lathe machine
Matt Orchard Umm that wasn’t my intention 👍.. super handy bit of kit.. quite addictive so watch out. Just be careful if you haven’t used b4 👍👍 pleased u enjoy them 🙏🙏
Got serious tool bag envy! That’s a great set up you’ve got. I’ve got 4 cases as I do gas, oil, renewables and commercial. Need to get organised
Paul Turner No don’t be Envious mate please. 1st been doing this a while collect this stuff over time. Pushed in a corner we can work with a few tools. Getting organised is better I promise. Clear mind and tidy best policy. Work smart and spend where needed. 1st work..2.. van... 3 tools.. stock... repeat repeat.. 7 days... then 6 days a week then when ur lucky and built a business 10 years about... then 5 days... put the work in I promise the other stuff comes 👍 appreciate support 👍
Nice set up , I'm no spring chicken any more so I've split my tools into 3 bags for easier carrying, service / main / odds and sods so a bit similar to your set up which works fine for me , I've given up doing big installs these days and just concentrate on service and repair work and to be honest I pre fare doing the different varieties of work that this brings in , you've got a great channel here and I really enjoy watching.....
Cheers......👍
yensabi Have to say that’s “ Made my day “ 😁 Our mindsets are similar .. installs very few just the people that really want or need me to do it. Tennis elbow, shoulder, knees.. they all ache and that’s without all the years of Breathing in God Only knows what. The channel well I get on with complete strangers better than my own family 😂🤣 it also helps me on my communication skills and use of Words.. I’m Dyslexic so work in progress. Thanks again much appreciated 👍
Similar set up to myself. I've recently made a third bag up tho - a soldering bag, with flux, lamp, solder, heat mat etc. Does a few things. Makes my install bag a hell of a lot lighter and also keeps the flux juice in its own place instead of leaving its stinking aroma and mess all over my main bag.
Same 👍
I have most of the hand tools you mentioned. I agree with your review totally. Especially the chrome knipex. I have both sizes are when your trying to work quickly they can be a faff. I would recommend the 15mm to 22nm double open ended ring spanner. Saw it on Skill builder channel it works a treat when fitting compression valves etc. would appreciate some more info on your specific boiler tools you have developed over the years and where you use them
Thanks appreciate it 🙏🙏
Your tool bag is mint I’m well jealous I want it haha
Thanks for watching .. now Hit that subscribe button 👍
Usually I click off of vids with the accent but this was solid
Nick Crum 👍
Ordered one of those Versa Funnels can't believe I've never heard or seen one before they look so handy. I've been using a Stanley large stand on type toolbox for years and it has lots of tools in that are not used much for servicing and it's a back breaker to carry around to jobs, so I'm make up a little service bag like you've done. Keep up the vids.
Simon Worger one of the best cheap purchases you will make 👍👍
@@drpipe just added one of those to my ever growing tools wish list on Amazon and this will work a treat in conjunction with those fold away small buckets that can be crushed against pipes etc... 👍
Funny my two bags are very similar.
The only thing I've done of late. I've bought some little Technic or similar bum bags.
No matter what, you don't need everything but the kitchen sink. So I've split certain tools down into three smaller bags. Works for me. Be warned. Don't put all your eggs in one basket and that shit bag breaks into the van. It's hard to take. Happened to me 5 times. Last time over 10 years ago at a cost of 4k.
Im 61 now and even though I still adding to my kit I couldn't bare purchasing another life time of tools which some I lost from my apprentice and early 20/30's👎
Nice video. Nice to see fellas taking pride in not just there work👌
Been asked about the tools I carry out to jobs.. here you go thanks for watching.
I got the knipex pliers wrench a few weeks ago and yes they are fiddley. You gotta get it one click bigger or one click smaller. 2 clicks and it's too big. I haven't learned the trick to them yet
Perfect. My toolkit is exactly the same. Right up until the last I was thinking.....is it always that tidy? How? Then you answered it for me. Great video...👍👍👍
Glad you like it.. just realised I forgot to open the inside pocket 🥴 I have a pair of super large water pump grips and an adjustable Rothenberger radiator tail ratchet. That’s it. Have other stuff in the Van just my day to day gear. Thanks for watching.
Great how you manage to get so much in if you pack it correctly. Just bought
Myself a couple of pairs of knipex plier wrench’s (180 and 300’s) and a Rothenberger swage tool from watching your videos. You’re an influencer my friend 😉 keep up the good work, love the vids 👍
Na mate influencer ain’t my bag... just show what I like at this moment in time.. buy what’s right for u and ur budget 💯💪🎄🎄
Well said. merry crimbo and stay safe 👍 🎄 🎅
This is inspiring
Mark Watson it’s what you do with the tools that matters 👍💪🙏🙏
Cool video
Mark Watson thanks
I need that vaillant drain down hose in my life!
If I had enough interest maybe I would make some for Subscribers or give them away in some kind of giveaway. Glad you liked it.. I use it all the time now. Thanks for watching really appreciate it.
I second that, fed up attaching my manometer tube to do draindowns. I've pressured a few times using the dosing tool I made up with a hozelock garden sprayer plus adapter for the end.
@@drpipe Is the end from the rapid dose kit by any chance?
I have to say when I made it I thought it was top notch ... but lots of engineers can’t be bothered.. I found the manometer tube just kept degrading... then one day found a leak in the tube on a tightness test... sent me around the houses for ages. No leak tube went from Chems etc. Enough. Glad you like it.👍 if we get 100 thumbs we will work it out somehow.
ghostmanromeo uk no I’m a machinist for hobby and made it up as a Product but never sure if it would catch on. As I say if I had enough interest would make a few maybe as a giveaway or special event. Glad u like it. Thanks for watching. All my own work.
😉👍👍👍super
Thank you 🙏
@@drpipe 😉🤝
Should do a van tour
May be a stupid question, your 240v lead for checking fans and pumps great idea on older boilers, but I take it u do that with 3amp fused spur power off? Any tips for newer boilers trying the same tests? By the way picked up some great tips from this video
Nice set up 👌 i think you might benefit from that battery powered milwaukee pipeslice for your health, watched a few vids and for ,£100 might be worth a look? Thanks for the tips 😉👍
Had one for a couple of years now 🙏🙏
Are the Vaillant drain down adaptor available mate
One wee question matey. How do you find the Black Swan? Do you use it as a Joint Paste or on threads.
Thanks for sharing👍
Kind regards Dick Puller.
👍👌
Ah makes sense, mine is 10 years old and has it I still see many engineers with alsorts of gadgets when the anton does the lot.
andrew smith you have me thinking now.. will phone them.. to be fair I think it’s upgrade time had this setup 10 years was never told abt gas detect facility .. I remember it had a heat temp flue connector but that fell off year 1 ! Hope Tec has moved on if I upgrade 👍
Ye I'm in same boat, battery not holding charge very well but cant complain with 10 years service...I've loved my sprint!
Hi good tip on replacing drain off valve washers. What size are they when you need to buy spares ???
Paul T the right size 🤷♂️
Where do you get those stampers from sir ? I use the gas Safe register certs not regin etc. so would that work for me. Many thanks great videos,
One of the Gas safe Cert Reg companies do em
Butifull bag 👌👌👌👌👌
Can you let me know what thread the vailliant drain offs are please
No torque wrench for Vaillant G10s ?
Why carry the Anton gas detector? The analyser has that feature? Great video thanks for sharing!
andrew Smith I’m pretty sure that version over 10 years old doesn’t have the sniffer. Pleased you enjoyed thanks for watching 👍
I had a guy turn up on a job some years ago and in his tool kit he had two screw divers no handles a comb .a mirror hair gel and sandwiches. what's this ficher price tool kit needless to say he didn't last long .about 30 minutes. Keep makeing the vids.
Hi Dr pipe I've been subscribed to your channel for a while now and enjoying it ......I just had one question what is the brush you use to clean out vaillant heat exchangers , it connects into a drill. It looks the nuts and it'll be handy for me.
nindes only out of warranty cleaning as the Oem doesn’t endorse that cleaning style. Just gentle paint brush. Pleased u enjoy
Right really good advice 👌
At 2:11 , from where you got the Makita mini drive ? amazing tool :)
Local tools
Hey Mate! Great videos!!! I’m curious to know what camera are u using to film ur videos, especially when they look like u have it placed on ur head??
The Bearded Heating Co° Glad you like them.. Cameras ! Don’t get me started.. they are not designed to work in the environments plumbers lurk ! Dark .. wet.. dusty etc. Last count 6/7 different ones...chest mount, tripod, crane, boom..u name it I’ve given it a go ! Looking at changing unit Have a go pro 7 but it’s soo unreliable can’t tell you.. all the you-tubers bang on abt it ! Honestly rubbish. My phones better ! Just can’t work one handed ! Anyway 5 hours of editing for me to release a video tmrw ! Thanks for watching.
Dr Pipe
I totally get it mate... I’m a West London Heating Engineer living and working in Amsterdam, doing pretty much the same as you and I really appreciate the fact we are very similar with our work ethics and not just keep recommending a new boiler when all most need is an in-depth service!
Hence why I asked about which camera u use as I want to vlog my days in Amsterdam as The Bearded Plumber°
Looking forward to more of ur great content mate!!!
The Bearded Heating Co° Sorry long days ! Main camera is Go pro 7 not happy with it tho.. battery life 40 mins.. I record 6 hours some days.. use an external battery supply.. but the Audio then is 1.5 secs out of sync ! No bother you say.. it is with 200 clips a day ! Other is a static on a boom Nikon D750 with external mics etc. Have to be Honest it’s a Hell of a lot of work .. great if you can just turn up and go but I spend Hours Editing this stuff so I don’t bore you guys 😲 too many youtubers make films that are not edited.. I don’t want to watch 30 mins of unscrewing case covers. I may go to a Sony x3000r old now but heard it’s better than go pro. Hope that helps. Love Amsterdam.. check The super club out v cool if it’s still there.
The Bearded Heating Co° Forget to say I use a stuntman shoulder mount... makes me look like Terminator but it’s the only way I Know.. let me know when your in Town do a Repair Together ! All the best.
Best still be reading these 16 months on... Where did you get the extra long shraeder extension? Been on an endless search.
DC Kish should be regin tools.. if not Ebay or Halfords should be.
@@drpipe Cheers mate, I'll get back on the search.
No hacksaw?
where'd you get the PCB cover from? Could you put a wee list of the tools? Haha cheers
Where did you get your angled pliers?
Been looking for a while for a pair and can’t find anywhere.
Liam Kavanagh If I’m right Machine Matt not even expensive. Really useful 👍
Dr Pipe thanks I’ll take a look. Great videos, only came across you channel 2 days ago and watched all your videos already!
Liam Kavanagh I’m pumped mate, super pleased you get something from them all the best 👍 support appreciated.
Found same pair online, Euro car parts £10, looked around for ages before found any,useful bit of kit
What sort of tank is that lid/ tray off
You didn't seem to be impressed with the 2 different sized Knipex plier/wrenches after using them for just a few months. The adjustment looked fiddly and getting it tight left the handles sometimes open too much. Has your opinion changed - yes or no/why? I've just ordered a pair of the 250mm length Knipex on the basis of rave reviews and thought the smooth parallel operated jaws and clamping strength would replace my worm screw wrench.
One of the best tools I have ever bought and I have lots and lots of tools.!!
Cobra pliers should be on the list and also look at the Knipex Raptor pliers if you do plumbing
Nice kit good to see. Do you have issues with tool theft in your area ? I bring all my main gear in at night because of the amount of theft in the area I’m in. Which is actually regarded a very pleasant place.
The van has a state of the art Alarm, a tracker linked to my mobile phone and service, backed up with a pager just in case that goes down. Yes I bring the tools in every night even tho I sleep 6 foot from my Van ! Oh did I mention the Dog and the ctv monitors my off street parking. Trouble everywhere in Uk with crime.. but I take great care when it comes to my stuff.
Heat Service bwc uk Thanks for watching hope you enjoyed it. I use the best I can afford and applaud guys that get stuff done without having to spend £300 on a tool bag think that’s nuts. It’s your mindset that gets stuff fixed not your tools.
Dr Pipe yeah I agree. Basics are often the most important but some of the bits now make the job so much easier. The mind will always be the best tool in this game! I must admit I did treat myself to a veto bag which I know was very expensive but I do appreciate the quality. I do have a lot of Stanley gear too fantastic for the price I have to say.
@@heatservicebwcuk1545 a pro pack and an Tech Xl. I've had my pro pack since 2012, Great stuff👍🏻
I need the flexible bit holder at 4:15. Can you send me the link to buy? Thks a lot

HeatingGeek Better late than Never 😂🤣 I did yours ages ago ! Much appreciated you stopping by. Looking forward to a collaboration in the Future Definitely. Can’t believe I made 1000 subs at the weekend Mental.👍
@@drpipe Well done. :-) Big money now!!!! or not. I have a great job this week. Hopefully it works out as it should and I get some more work from it. Have a great week and hopefully something will come up and be perfect for a colab ;-)
Thats what you call a Tool Box - never be with-out a tool for the Job
Yes it gets stuff done
What joker spanner size do u have ?
One that fits😂🤣 8mm I think got a set of bahco ratchets 👍 cheaper 👍
Hmmmm. Plumbing must be different in the 🇬🇧 than 🇺🇸 I been plumbing for over 25 yrs and don't use 1/2 OF what you need LOL
Yep sure is. Most of my work is fixing stuff not install
@@drpipe Roger that thanks for sharing 👍🇬🇧
Sound like me bean 😂
2:45 isn't that from a BMW?
Where did you get your boiler fault finding fly leads?
Russell Birdie boilers think I got them at Maplin but they went bust. Ebay aliexpress im sure there pretty standard so shouldn’t be an issue. Thanks for watching.
Didn't see torch
