- What a carpenter has in their tool pouches is important. With winter almost over and projects about to start we thought we’d give a quick primer on what we like to see any of our new hires have to start their new job/career off on the right foot! As always if you have any questions or comments please let us know in the comments!

I’ve been a commercial carpenter for 16 years and I use a roofing/drywall hammer everyday. I know everyone does things different but I don’t see how you don’t use a hammer. I like the hatchet style for framing mostly. Maybe you don’t do much structural framing but still I use mine everyday and we frame rock and do all finish work, ceilings bathrooms even painting. Great video though good for the new guys starting. Thank you.
I appreciate the feedback. We set structural panels instead of structural framing. We set the panels then we interior frame which hardly needs a hammer. Mostly Hilti’s and impacts for our guys.
@@mitchellacoustical3119 there is definitely more than one way to skin a cat. What about sledgehammers for Rhodes panels. I don’t use a hammer much anymore when framing ceilings but when I started we used hard nails and staples to attach the ledger angle to the walls. Ever do it like that? Now we use screws. I understand not using one much for light gage framing but I still use it. Haha. It is just different to here someone say they don’t need/use a hammer it has always been the opposite for me. But hey more power to you keep up the good work I really enjoy the videos!
He is definitely EIS. In the northwest, they are known as interior exterior specialists. Dry wall, metal stud framing, exterior structural steel framing, acoustical ceilings etc. I am a commercial general carpenter, which is probably what you are
Thanks for the tips, starting as labor/apprentice this week definitely be picking all these up.
Glad we could help!
excellent information..Thanks you!💪
Glad we could help!
I work in drywall acoustic and lathering and I use a hammer daily when framing with steel stud. I have a drywall axe for hanging board but when you need to use sure drive pins or have to nock a stud around a tight spot or even rip track up a good hammer is the besy
Sure, but you could also use a router for the drywall and cut the stud the correct length as well.
@@mitchellacoustical3119 on the last job we we used them a lot with tight corners. Always have a router but found in my area we use a framing hammer and a drywall hammer a lot. We also like to use sure drive pins a lot for some reason
Rule to live by: never go anywhere without a hammer
I’ve been a union carpenter for 11 years doing strictly commercial work and my 3rd most used tool is a hammer right behind a pencil and tape measure. Most of the people I’ve seen over the years doing interior work also carry a hammer. Maybe I’ll convince my boss I don’t need a hammer for doing my job anymore. Just having some fun here. No hard feeling
Might I also suggest checking out occidental tool belts if you like to support USA made goods unless you like chinee belts.
No worries bud. Yea I was union before I started my company, only time we’d use a hammer is when we install Raco frames. Other than that, not needed for framing, drywall or ceilings.
Oh and I totally agree on the bags, I’ve had those same ones for 15 years, never needed the occidental ones but they are nice👍
Im a union apprentice carpenter ive been doing framing most my apprenticeship but hustled my way into doors i have all my basic hand tools but what do i need for doors specifically anything helps
A lazer or a plumb bob, one of those inflatable pumps to lift doors, a bunch of number 3 tips for your drill, a nice set of drill bits for lock sets and closers (metal and wood), a hole punch for setting hinges, a counter sink tip. That should get you started! Good luck. We have some other door videos on our channel you should check out.👍
@@mitchellacoustical3119 thank you🙏🏻
Laser plumb Bob string one and your basic stuff long screws number tip drill bits counter sinker I've had to fix alot of doors and those little things help also in case or emergency bonds for holes cover the screw heads shyt I even seen taper cover screw heads on door hope it helps
Just started as an apprentice this helped me out. Appreciate the vid thanks 👍🏼
Alex Baez absolutely! Thank you. Then the video did its job. Glad we could help👍
Good walk through but I don’t know about that hammer. I’m no pro, but I build furniture and do lots of finish work. I’d be lost without my hammer.
Sure, yea absolutely for furniture. We do commercial carpentry. Typically not needed for us.
Professional going commercial Naylor is not important but that's what I would learn from from my boss you said he can't use a regular saw you cannot put a hint a nail into a board with your hammer you will not be working here but I thought it would be a lot faster to use your hammer. Is it is it good to have a Stanley hand saw? We're doing the contractors let me know
when you are a commercial carpenter you must also do fixturing and for that you need some extra tools that you have there
We build hotels, retail, and restaurants. That’s our typical set of pouches that I’ve needed for 15 years.
What “fixturing” are you talking about? Ha
“Tool pouches for wallers & ceiling guys”
Nope I’ve gotten along 15 years now at this point with this set up. We build hotels, retail, restaurants, etc
Lol no concrete tools in there
Lol big time
So your a drrwall/ steel stud/ acoustical ceiling guy?
Yup, we build hotels, assisted living, freight centers, retail, and restaurants.
Magkano ba ang order nito
"Taunt?"
Haven’t watched in a while, did I say taunt instead of taut?
That is a very odd variety of tools to carry for a commercial carpenter.
Why’s that?
Seems fairly standard, but what about impact driver, drywall gun? Do you supply your guys with those? What about levels? And I’ve worked in commercial construction for years and never seen a carpenter without a hammer. Oh and no tape? That’s an essential tool for a drywaller
Major Calloway just build a hotel without a tape yeah she'll be right ay
SloppyLong DemonShlong what’s 1/2 inch among friends eh?
well bein a drywall man myself this pouch looks far from a drywall mans. you did alotta fire taping and shit work by the looks of all that goo on that pouch .an a above cieling quality guy lol
A hammer would be one of your most important tools unless you are just finishing….but even then …..
No. Not at all.
Okay so I would just like to say when you do metal stud framing you really don’t use a hammer much at all you use an impact way more than anything else. So he’s not exactly wrong about the hammer being not used as much. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been doing commercial carpentry you’ve got to understand things are done different depending on where you’re located we do everything from framing the walls hanging sheet rock hanging grid and dropping tiles so I’m sorry to tell you Jesse but you’re wrong if all you’re doing is framing it’s probably because you’re not qualified to hang any rock or ceiling and if you’ve been doing commercial carpentry for ten years you might wanna take some initiative and try to learn more than what you know
I go somebody work sites you have to answer me this people are stone-cold drunk and you can smell the alcohol on them that is not to be or they kind of steal your tools then you have to punch him out then you get fired and you have to go get another contractor or move to a totally different state
This is a terrible commercial carpenter pouch requirement. This is a drywall pouch set up
If I put a pop riveter and a punch in there you’d tell me it was a ceiling guys pouches and not good enough for drywall/framing too huh?
@Mitchell Acoustical I've been doing commercial carpentry for 10 years, if you show up on a commercial site with c-clamps and expect to use your hammer are rarely as the video says then your going to be a laughed at and be called tackle box from day one. The sheer amount of wood you use on a commercial site combined with angles used with your speed square AND nails for fastening which you can't always use a nailer in tight locations which would lead you to use your hammer on a regular basis would mean the average commercial carpenter would most deffinetly need those tools on a DAILY basis. Now if all you do is steel studs then this video is perfect. But steel studs is a fraction of what a commercial carpenter usually does. If this video was a pouch best suited for steel stud framing, it would be a different story.
