Best pliers you'll ever own and other wizardry

My favorite tools are the tools my dad gave me. Mostly Klein brand and his older sets. They are over 25 years old and are still better than most of my new tools. I never heard of Knipex.

Pretty handy to have a ratcheting screwdriver with a zillion different bits on hand.

WHat are those? I’m not familiar.

Broken pipe studs for pulling broken pipe and fittings out of things when you can’t get a socket on it. It turns it from the inside out.

Who makes that?

Quit showing pictures like that and I’ll stop spending your money

:joy: I got the high pressure reducers from dultmeier already.

A super swivel will last you 4 or 5 years. Less if you grease it. I know that makes no sense but it is what it is.

Yep. No sense. Lol

Cornwell makes solid stuff. I didn’t know if it was Gedore or cornwell. Both well worth the money I’ve heard.

I use these.

I tried those first with no luck on the brass. It was just spinning grooves in it unfortunately. These look like you can use them to tighten a pipe down from the inside out should you ever need to though… Ever try it?

Lady foot pry bar. Use it a dozen times anytime I work on something at the shop. Line up holes, pry, beat and bang, knock holes in the oil filters to drain before removing, throw at stray cats, numerous uses.

I had to look that up and apparently I have two small ones I’ve always called nail pullers. lol.

I made a video. At the end, I leave some bread crumbs about a power tool I’m gonna do a review of.

Milwaukee is great for long term use and quality. Sometimes cheap is good also. I havr one awesome 5 inch Milwaukee grinder that i was constantly having to stop and change out to cutting disk or different heads. I finally bought 5 cheap ones at harbor freight and keep different disk on them.

Does that 90 break often on you?

If your going to battery powered tools now, I have to vote for Rigid. Lifetime warranty to include the batteries. it was the batteries that sold me but I use them hard every week on fences and so far so good.
