I love the compactness and simplicity, along with the high vis pouch. I'd suggest a small pry bar/tool and maybe a collapsible magnet. Otherwise I think it's great!
Nice setup. Here's some suggestions for additions I think you're right about the Pliers wrench instead of adjustable. The ratcheting action is easier and if you need a makeshift clamp (or flattener), they're great to have. Precision screwdriver. Very small, but exactly what you need for some occasional electronics stuff. Mini prybar or junk slotted screwdriver. Sometimes you just need something you can beat on/with. 8-12' tape measure. More than enough for simple tasks. A tiny ruler/depth guage is also surprisingly useful while taking up basically zero space Gerber EAB as a super-compact utility knife. I recently had to remove some carpet off concrete. It wore the tip clear off the blade. I wouldn't even want to do that to a Gonzo.
I plan to have all of that inside the tier 2 bag that also always lives in the car, I intended to make a video on all of that but just been so busy I haven't had the chance ! Saved your comment to reference later, thanks !
U need a mayhew pro 40100 - 9 in rolling head pry bar or OTC 7162 - 7in rolling head pry bar I personally carry the 9 incher 😅 . So after 6 years of testing I found more use from the 9 incher, I carry it in my back pocket inside the klein leather back pocket protector. Also make sure the prybar is 90° not curved .
A little bit ratchet set like GearWrenchs 85035 set, you could also use the bits and sockets with your ratcheting screwdriver, a few combination wrenchs, 10, 12, 14,mm or 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, depending on your vehicle, will cover a lot of minor repairs, and take up little space. Re; side cutters, linesman and needlenose HAVE side cutters, they are not called side cutters, dedicated straight (not diagonal) cutting pliers are rare (good luck finding a modern manufacturer), most would use end knippers instead. The tape thing, they are correctly called tape lanyards, but also commonly called a tape strap. I carry a similar kit in one of Kliens zippered canvas pouches when traveling. P.S. that bag you have looks like a shaving kit bag, or a multi-meter case.
My man’s full of knowledge, thanks for the comment, all that won’t fit in this bag, shoulda done a better job of explaining - this is just the first of 3 bags the midsize and large bag will have more of those tools you dove into. Thanks!
Sorry, it's not really obvious how much room you had in that bag, I carry my travel kit around in a Klein 12 1/2" canvas bag (5139) and it holds it all. In my personal truck I carry a clamshell ratchet set and an 18" Dewalt tool bag, behind the seat.
Not a bad little carry... I would maybe add a multi bit kind of terminal driver and a 1/4 5/16 bit for that screwdriver... but you got most of it covered...

This is a guy who actually uses his tools. I respect that! :D

good idea! I think both of those will be in the tier 2 bag ! I gotta work on finalizing that and put a video out on it, soon! Thanks for commenting !

does look like a good idea.... thanks for spending my money ! HA
Nice set up there, I would ditch the bahco wrench and get the knipex pliers wrench which will give you a lot more use, cheers.
Deffo a nice kit but some zip ties wouldn't go amiss so useful
Good rec, a half dozen would easily fit in there, imma add them, thanks!

Those are diagonal cutters and lineman’s pliers are side cutters.
They cut on the side of the pliers.
Great kit! Might be a good idea to add a sharpie or some other writing implement. It might also be a good place to put a tire pressure gauge.
I always have a couple pens in the center console and a dedicated car emergency kit that has a pressure gauge! Great ideas, thanks for commenting!
Great little set up , love them Bahcos
They are great! Thank you !
I am using something similar just a little bit bigger. On Yours I would look into the wera kraftform.
Nice!

Good call, I don’t love ratcheting screwdrivers anyways
@@UpstateMaveric I'm not a fan of ratcheting screwdrivers either... it's nice when you can stop the ratcheting..
Nice small bag…. Appreciate the video 👍
Hey man! I watch your videos, thanks for the comment!
@@UpstateMaveric 👍.. I appreciate that.. I’m a sub to yours. If someone has tools, I’m watching 😂
I'd add a utility knife. Good vid.
There will be one in the next step up pouch that I keep in my car kit, video soon to follow, thanks for watching!
