Tool bags getting a bit heavy...

[Leesparkykent]

So I've had enough of lugging around my tool bag as it was feeling really heavy. It was starting to depress me every time I pulled up outside a job...the thought of lugging it up stairs etc. I've just emptied it and Ive just noticed I've lost a few things but amongst all the tools I was carrying around 55 screwdrivers, 10 pairs of cutters, 5 crimpers, 3 levels, two chalk lines, 5 Stanley knifes, 4 bolsters, 21 hole saws, 5 chisels, 2 tapes, 6 sets of Allen keys etc. Not to mention the usual build up of carp in the bottom of the bag...screws, grommets. Choc block, wagos, 7 rolls of tape, 3.5 and M4 screws and about two rubble sacks of bits of brick, plaster board dust, saw dust etc

Is that a 1/4 drive Bahco socket set a spy?

yes mate...well handy little set. Especially for hager 3 phase boards and their silly incomer kit stubs you have to bolt on.

I went out an bought a set a while back then had another two fall into my possession, very handy little kit.

I bet the other poor guys working on the same sites as you know exactly where they all came from

I've never met him a two of them are mine, and the Bacho socket and driver set.

Thats good to hear
A word of caution though
We electricians generally make more use of screwdrivers than hacksaws, be sure you have your priorities in order before purchasing.

I use my hacksaw more that I use screwdrivers. Mostly, when I terminate a cable, it's armoured, I crimp lugs on it, and then use a spanner and a socket to secure the lugs.... Maybe LSK wants my screwdrivers too, seeing as they're rarely used?

that's what you need an apprentice for lol.

An octopus would

Maybe we should rename him to Magpie......

Or Durga as you would need several pairs of hands for all those screwdrivers!
