I have too say I was looking for a new belt and was considering occidental, but came across this video and ordered a similar setup It ended up being a little more expensive than the occidental but after receiving it this is by far the nicest highest quality tool belt setup money can buy, I’m gonna order an extra that way I’ll always have one. It’s perfect beautiful craftsmanship at a level I haven’t seen in a while, even the packaging was thoughtful and inviting. Awesome buckaroo!!!!
Buckaroo recently released a tool pouch called the bespoke which is primarily tool storage bag. It's little expensive, but then again what isn't these days when it comes to quality. That being said I just received mine a few weeks back, it's a real game changer, extremely pleased.
I’ve got a buckaroo setup, really like the belt and suspenders but I switched to occidental for the pouches. Main gripe being I didn’t understand why I’d have to buy a belt full of tool frogs to carry the same stuff as a occidental framer pouch which has room for a catspaw, podger and it’s own speed square slot rather than taking up a whole other pocket.
Me too. In my Occidental setup, there's a holder specifically for a tape measure with a hole at the bottom so you can use a finger to push it up, which I've found to work better and more reliably than a pouch or a metal clip.
Buckaroo By far the best and most comfy belt and suspender system, suspenders changed my life at work never go without them again. I pair mine with the oxy bags they just work better for me little wide yes but im always carrying different types of fixings from bugles to rivets and the oxies have enough pockets i dont have to double up i hate going to grab a scew and coming out with a nail
“who wants to carry 15 racks of 16s”. that my low average for slow days, 30 on production days. nice video man the audio is way better! Nice bags too, wouldn’t agree with your #1 statement because that’s all opinion, for me my bags are number 1 lol Still waiting on being sold on that square tho.....
#1 Best "Leather" Belt - By far. I still want to try Atlas! 15 racks is a low average?! You're insane man!! I'll get to that square convincing - I've been swamped! Glad you could see an audio difference, changed set ups and the shop has more in it to reduce echo.
Great vid. In Australia 90% of tradies across soooooo many different trades run a buckaroo set-up. Unlike the American style of using two bags (one for tools, one for fixings) most blokes are running one bag for fixings & then customising the other 2/3rds of the belt with frogs for what tools we carry. Great stuff, cobba
Great stuff. OG says hang up toolbelt/nail bags. Avoid dropping off on subfloor. Three decades ago, I had my belt nailed to deck w/16p (bout 2dz). Never again. It’s easier to hang on a sawhorse or angled fastener. Treat tools well + tools treat me well kinda thing. Thanks for your video. Stilletto T-bone are best!!
Here in Canada with the nail bar right were the belt go's in side the loop for the pouch, that's where we like to put our nail bar! It works and it makes use of space for your belt
As an Occidental guy ( from 1990) I do like my bags but, the belt is to hard on my hips now. So, I've been eyeballing this belt system from buckaroo. Maybe I'm sold but not quite
not sold at all, i like the system of the occidental more. honestly having spots to put your tools instead of just sitting in a bag makes more sense to me as an actual carpenter. i just can't get over the price of occidental. but they last the longest and so far out of 50 different tool bags i've tried are the most comfortable out of all of them.
Great review thanks. I’m in Australia and trying to make up my mind on what to get Buckaroo or occidental and this has just sealed the deal. Buckaroo it is.
Ladson Renovations I’ve just started timber framing and been looking at tool belts. What is your opinion on the belt and did you buy all the pouches from them or add your own. And the big question is, is it worth the price?
@@elliotmarston137 yes it is. I was very concerned about spending so much money on them but as a carpenter of over forty years experience I can say I wish I had them as a young man. I would strongly encourage you to buy a new set if you plan on making a career out of this business. Excellent tools should always be a top priority besides a good strong educational apprenticeship under a highly qualified team that is where all the value in the business is. I always looked forward to new young men starting to work with me that was serious about their own work your pride in workmanship shows, your tools are a big part of that. And your boss will reward you for your efforts ten fold.
Jeffrey Sampson I was going to do an apprenticeship but after thinking about it I’m just going to work, nowadays people aren’t bothered about qualifications and are more bothered about good quality experience. Thankyiu
@@elliotmarston137 I agree apprenticeship programs are far and few but working under an excellent carpenter will provide the experience. You got it right though quality workmanship is everything even if you go through an apprenticeship program. I hated closing my company it was very hard for me after 32 years of being in business but I also had an apprenticeship program only two sometimes three people were hired and welcomed to it simply because the last ten years got so hard to find good young men that I could invest in and turn into very high quality carpenters that often ten years down the road became some of my competition made me feel good yet sad to lose them. I wish you the best always buy excellent quality tools especially your bags and the tools you carry all the time it matters.
Jeffrey Sampson did you buy buckaroo pouches or did you just put a different brand on? I’m going to buy the one tomorrow, hopefully it’s worth it and fingers crossed they deliver to the UK
After all this time have you decided on a more permanent belt that you use daily between the buckaroo and Diamondback? I’m stuck between the 2 and since you can’t just go and try one on I don’t want to make a costly mistake. Thanks
My issues with having a chisel and/or hammer on the back is that a small “frog” slides back and forth from left to right between the pouches. It moves around during the day. Annoying and slows me down. No problem for you?
Claes Edgren It happens from time to time, depending on what I’m doing. You can also fit the hammer and chisel frog directly to the side of your pouch! Behind it or in front of it, it’ll fit. When I do finish work, I keep it in front of my pouches - so I don’t damage anything with a hammer flopping around!
I think the link to the 3 pocket nailbag is the wrong one, I think the one in the video is the 3 Large pocket nailbag. Correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks for the review, I'm piecing together my order thanks to this video!
Yes sir I did, do you remember how long it took for shipping to Canada? Only been two days and I'm already going crazy haha, I can't wait to get my new kit!@@MattBangsWood
Both are great. I bought buckaroos a while back and love them spend a few bucks getting them the way I like them setup but I will also own the forever and easily repaired, or replaced if needed which I doubt I take care of my equipment.
I see these at the store all the time...I like the design of the belt itself, but I think the pouches aren't that special. The leather and stitching look pretty basic but they cost nearly double the other brands on sale next to them.
im liking the product from buckaroo and want to purchase them in the future for my next bags and belt setup one thing i thing needs to chang is the suspenders as i bet they're really comfortable but i would like to see a D ring or something in the back to where i can hang the tool setup for storage at the end of the day since i dont jus leave everyrhing in the truck have u had a issue with that and or is there a solution or some method u use that i dont know about thanks for the video really considering to purchase from them on my next set because of you
Tools on the right, nails on the left. I saw that $250 overpriced speed square. It works, but no better or faster than a Swanson, Empire or my 35 year old Sands rapid square. Are those Buckaroo bags kangaroo leather?
Also...titanium is a great material but it is actually heavier than aluminum making it a poor choice for a speed square. If you bust a nut for a Stiletto or a Martinez titanium hammer that you carry every day you will get no guff from me...but that square is actually inferior to products that cost a fraction of the cost.
That works for me, but may not work for the left handed. A right handed carpenter working with a left handed carpenter can be a great team if both of them know how to work together.
I see a lot of guys wearing suspenders on their pouches which I totally understand. I have never used them on my belt but they make sense, here is my thing with suspenders, if you need to tie off on a roof and have to wear a harness how does that work with the suspenders?
A harness is a very thin strap, therefore it doesn’t feel anything like suspenders. Harness goes on first, bags and suspenders over it. If you click on my channel, go to the Winery Build Series, I wore a harness the whole time on that builds roof with suspenders.
@@MattBangsWood that's awesome. Thanks for letting me know. I've wondering how that works. Harness first then bags overtop. Thanks man. I'll check out that video
Does Buckaroo offer custom belt bag making? Like, lets say you see a bag you like on their website and you’d like to buy 2 of the same belt bags but would like them to be configured for right side and left side, will they accommodate their customers for that? Thx for your reply.
Does anybody else have an issue with the left front suspender eyelet reinforcement in the belt itself gouging into the left hip bone? I’ve just bought a 34” after returning the 32” because of this issue, and I’ve just tried the 34” at home and the same problems happens, legitimate pressure on the hip from that point on the belt behind the suspender eyelet!!!
Definitely recommend a size 32 belt I'm a size 32 aswell but went with a size 36 buckaroo belt because I ordered online and it almost doesn't fit, I ran out of belt holes so yeah definitely go with what ever size you actually are
I would have a hard time with all of the tool holders being on the outside of the pouches. I'm often using three, sometimes even four, different types of hardware, so I can't really get away with throwing tools in the pouches, and man would I be catching stuff like crazy (especially with the pencils!) if I had my tools on the outside.
ILikeWafflz I was thinking the same thing. I would be catching pencils on everything and feeling around the bottom of a bag for a tool sucks, done that. I like the belt but the bags need tool holders. For instance, I carry 6 items in my right hand bag and each has a dedicated spot so they are all on end, ready to grab.
Finally, my All Arounder came in today. Had to wipe down the box with disinfectant wipes, it came from New York (Covid19 hot spot)! Looking forward to wearing my Occidentals on it tomorrow. Thanks for the review. Are you still using the belt?
I've got a lot coming early 2019 - definitely some framing videos! Anything specific? I plan on doing some basics - how to frame a window / door, how to calculate rakes, along with on-site videos from our daily workflow.
MattBangsWood we could just watch Larry and Joe Haun do there thing lol just joshin. Good videos bud. I’m considering buckaroo, but I hate that there’s no speed square slot
Leather is honestly antiquated anymore when you consider something like diamondback pouches, which dont suffer from the shortcomings of leather but have the reliability and customizability more than pretty much any set of pouches out there, they arent cheap tho..
Diamondback are great, but I prefer working out of leather pouches. Always have and probably always will, something about it is nice. Both materials have shown worthy of years and years of use, comes down to preference in the end.
Leather still works. If you take care of good leather properly it will last and be comfortable. Leather seems to hold on to tools better and dosn't scratch and bang on everything in sight.
Do you by chance know anything about returns and warranty? Also you wouldn't happen to have a coupon code would you?? Are you in Australia?? I'm trying to get them to the US.
That thing does not look efficient at all lol Look into a Akribus Leather rig if you want efficiency and built by a guy who works in the carpentry world so knows what works and what does not!!
MattBangsWood a comparison video would be amazing, there’s nothing on the internet comparing the two bags. they are so similar, yet completely different.
To be honest it's just good to see an Australian brand over there. Even if only two blokes are using them haha. Buckaroo are getting alot more popular here now with carpenters and, steel fixers and stuff. It used to only really be riggers (think Americans call them iron workers) and scaffolders. Now every job you go on more and more people running a buckaroo rig.
You serious? He writes with his right hand so measure with the left write with the right, put the tape away then grab square with the left to mark square. Ez kiddo.
This must be sponsored,Free and a rookie belt. Definitely not for framers . Definitely something wrong if your not wearing occidental leather, best belts ever made. Wood hammer with tape? Bright orange is just wrong... Most important, buy American made tools, help American companies and American families...why do you hate America?
Occidental is superior. I don’t understand the USA sensitivity. I buy what I believe to be the best tool, regardless of where it is made, hopefully in the USA. If the superior bag was made in Australia, would you still buy the American made bag?
Man occidental bags are number one over Buckroo and diamond back bags I had a set of leather Occidentals then occidental cam out with the black 9050 bag system and come on how you gonna make a video saying some bag company named BUCK A WHO? Is better ???? I’ll have my bags well after yours blow out but other than that I really like the suspenders you have I like the video I’m not troling I just had to say I Disagree occidental NUMBER 1 bags on the planet hands down
Never take any comments as trolling. Everyone has an opinion.. I'm guessing you've never heard of them.. That means you've never worked with them. Buckaroo has been around since 1971, and they're huge in Aus. As of right now, I have a set of Occidentals, Buckaroo, Diamondbacks, to see where they all stack up. I worked out of Occidentals for a while before making the switch! Buckaroo's belt design is killer, and far more comfortable than Occidentals, by a mile and a half. Their pouches work for me a lot better too.. I'll have a video with all 3 belts soon. :)

I just searched a buckaroo review then went to your videos where ya been we need more builds reviews and videos
Boy that tape location would drive me crazy.
Me too. In my Occidental setup, there's a holder specifically for a tape measure with a hole at the bottom so you can use a finger to push it up, which I've found to work better and more reliably than a pouch or a metal clip.

What is a frog? Other than an amphibian.

@@devinjoshua9772the buckaroo belt and suspenders paired with Oxy bags is a great combo
I have occidental..and what i did...i put little bolts..with the belt through the bags...so that way...they wont fly when i take them off.
No catspaw sleave or tape holder? I hate dumping tools into pouches the belt/harness looks super comfy though.
You can get all that, they have a range of different things... but the cats paw holders aren't the best
Just got the same setup for an awesome deal from a store in Canada.. paid 277 including shipping the shipping to California
Great review! I just went out and bought one!
Looks nice. Can't see it being better than occidental though. I like that the suspenders look like a harness.
Ordered cant wait to get them
Awesome bud. That’s a great belt for teenager

That tape trick blew my mind. Teach me your ways lol
So with those suspenders… are they proprietary or can they fit on a occidental 3” belt? Or any conventional tool belt? Love the vids homie🤙

If you bust a nut for a Stiletto or a Martinez titanium hammer that you carry every day you will get no guff from me...but that square is actually inferior to products that cost a fraction of the cost.
I couldn't agree more, I just don't get the need to spend $550 on a square and a hammer. Been in this for 25 years and will never do that.
That works for me, but may not work for the left handed. A right handed carpenter working with a left handed carpenter can be a great team if both of them know how to work together.
May I have a question? Your square looks good. Plz tell me the brand and where I can buy...???

Can you use the buckaroo suspenders on a Diamondback tool belt? I just bought the db Grrande, but not yet any suspenders.
I highly recommended to check REX TOOL BAGS suspenders. They are really comfortable, durable and excellent competitive price.

Hi can you fit Occidental pouches on the buckaroo belts ?
Yes you can!
Did you have to go to anytype of schooling to become a framer.
The best brand is occidental
Do you by chance know anything about returns and warranty? Also you wouldn't happen to have a coupon code would you?? Are you in Australia?? I'm trying to get them to the US.
Did you buy your buckaroo bags from them directly? If you did, did you have any taxes or fees having them ship from Australia?
Yes, I did. I paid about $56 to get them to the states for shipping.
Really the occidental leather are by far the best of the best I've had mine for over 15 years
I like occidental better
Si cuesta 250$ dolares, ni loco lo voy a comprar, puedo hacer sólo el mío
El mio en 350 pero ya se pago solito
Wanna stand out??
Get a Trademutt shirt🤙🏻
Nathan Scott 😂 gold
That thing does not look efficient at all lol Look into a Akribus Leather rig if you want efficiency and built by a guy who works in the carpentry world so knows what works and what does not!!
Always more than one way to do things. Some work better than others be ready when you see a better way.
diamondback tool bags are the best bags ever, hands down, no question. do a comparison video
#1 "LEATHER" Tool Belt - I agree, Diamondbacks are great. I don't prefer them over Leather belts though. Just my personal preference.
MattBangsWood a comparison video would be amazing, there’s nothing on the internet comparing the two bags. they are so similar, yet completely different.
@@gagearenas5098 Gage, ask and you shall receive. Keep an eye out. ;)
MattBangsWood HYPED
Bags too expensive imo buy ox tools they have framer and drywall rig I'll never spend 3 to 4 hundred no way
0:45 The moment you said your parents were born in '77 made me throw up in my mouth a little bit. Other than that, great video.
I know Woodglut has the best woodworking plans.
You wear accidentals here in Australia and you get laughed at.
What’s the MGK stand for?
You wear anything other than Occidentals here you get laughed at. Nobody wears Buckaroo, nobody wears Diamondback.
To be honest it's just good to see an Australian brand over there. Even if only two blokes are using them haha. Buckaroo are getting alot more popular here now with carpenters and, steel fixers and stuff. It used to only really be riggers (think Americans call them iron workers) and scaffolders. Now every job you go on more and more people running a buckaroo rig.
@@MattBangsWood you dont like Diamondbacks?
Why do you keep you're speed square and you're tape measure on the same side? Come on!
You serious? He writes with his right hand so measure with the left write with the right, put the tape away then grab square with the left to mark square. Ez kiddo.
Terrible set up😂
This must be sponsored,Free and a rookie belt. Definitely not for framers . Definitely something wrong if your not wearing occidental leather, best belts ever made. Wood hammer with tape? Bright orange is just wrong...
Most important, buy American made tools, help American companies and American families...why do you hate America?
Occidental is superior. I don’t understand the USA sensitivity. I buy what I believe to be the best tool, regardless of where it is made, hopefully in the USA. If the superior bag was made in Australia, would you still buy the American made bag?
no, the best leather pouch is the task signature.
Man occidental bags are number one over Buckroo and diamond back bags I had a set of leather Occidentals then occidental cam out with the black 9050 bag system and come on how you gonna make a video saying some bag company named BUCK A WHO? Is better ???? I’ll have my bags well after yours blow out but other than that I really like the suspenders you have I like the video I’m not troling I just had to say I Disagree occidental NUMBER 1 bags on the planet hands down
Never take any comments as trolling. Everyone has an opinion.. I'm guessing you've never heard of them.. That means you've never worked with them. Buckaroo has been around since 1971, and they're huge in Aus. As of right now, I have a set of Occidentals, Buckaroo, Diamondbacks, to see where they all stack up. I worked out of Occidentals for a while before making the switch! Buckaroo's belt design is killer, and far more comfortable than Occidentals, by a mile and a half. Their pouches work for me a lot better too.. I'll have a video with all 3 belts soon. :)
Occidental fan also and I have been doing carpentry for twenty plus years. Nice tool bag though
Ordered cant wait to get them
Awesome! Send me a photo via DM on Instagram when you get them! instagram.com/MattBangsWood
