Great video! I like your philosophy - only buy what you need. I have some tools that I have never used since I purchased them. I’ll be making some organizational changes in my garage in the next few months. I would’ve been more productive today if I knew how important that statement is 5 years ago. I was spending too much money on tools that I did not need and justifying my addiction with a quote that I heard from another youtuber “it’s better to have a tool that you don’t need than not having a tool that you do need.”
My rule of thumb is, at least while working at a shop, but also it applies elsewhere is if you need it once, borrow it or rent it. If you need it twice, consider buying it, and make your best guess. If you need it three times, buy it asap. Thanks for watching!
Good call. It is Ernst. I'm super impressed even for the (slightly) premium price. It's the best solution I've yet seen. Another option might be 3d printing a mat with your own custom bespoke setup.
@@722racing3 Mantis Tool Grid can give you that but at what price idk. Toolbox widgets are also a solid choice as well as Westling. Personally I have all Ernst organizers and Toolbox widgets.
I mean. I own one. I've used it 4 or 5 times. In 12 years. I'm not saying it's a junk tool, I'm saying it has a specific use or two, so don't buy it as a "I might need this" tool.

Ernst makes the socket boss, excellent organizers! That and the bit boss are awesome to have, super convenient!

Neat I had a beat 86 Chevy k20 custom deluxe well used farm truck that had a curt manufacturing receiver trailer hitch
Great video and audio quality! What gear do you use to film and record?
Cheers!
Galaxy S22 Ultra. Surprisingly good for no editing. Even stabilizes the video to a point.
Speeder handles come in handy more than you think....so it is NOT A JUNK TOOL.....
