I used to do lots of renos and that Stanley multi blade knife broke so fast on me
On the Kreg Multi Mark there’s another pretty useful feature. The inset part of the body of the tool is set in 3/16" so it’s perfect for marking reveals on casing.
My pick would be the 5 in 1 painting tool as the low price tool that is well worth the money and everyone should have.
i was literally about to comment how cool and clever that shirt was and then you started to plug it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s a cool shirt idea. Like it
COOL
Maybe the coffee stirrers are junior tongue depressors

When you are talking about a tool, why don’t you have the tool name displayed on the video.
You don’t have to take the wheel off to replace the blade on an Olfa.
Your grandpa and I have the exact same combination square. I bought mine when I graduated trade school in 1969 as a patternmaker. Happily retired now.
For mechanical pencils I go with the uni-ball Kuru Toga elite
There’s a US company that makes a cheap custom packaged joining set that is made to lock two 1-2-3 blocks together in all sorts of ways. It’s very cheap and I find it really useful. Tay tools sells it, stumpy nubs’ channel was where I found it
When he pulled out the diet mtn dew I immediately subscribed
I ordered a pack of the hiboom pencils, basically off brand of the pica, from Amazon. They come with red, yellow, and gray graphite which helps on lighter and darker woods but a 5 pack with 30 replacement leads is still under 20. Deep reach with the built in sharpener as well. I keep different colors in multiple pencils so I don’t have to change them out.
Mora knives.
That Kreg multi tool also has two sized lips along the edges for doing door casing. Works great.
I recommend the Milwaukee Fasttrack blade, it’s solid metal has adjustable lock positions and I doubt I paid over 20 for it. And more memes please. They are a fine distraction.
I am curious why not an inexpensive electronic stud finder? Yes, no frills on the under $20 ones, but doesn’t rely on nails/screws that may not be in the stud at all…
The 1/2/3 blocks can be gotten in different sizes, it’s the ratio that is important in most cases
HUGE fan of the Kreg Multi Tool
Stud 🎃
Am I the only odd person that uses a Bridgeport knee mill for woodworking?
You need to have Mountian Dew zero sugar. None of this diet Mountian Dew.
123 blocks are just right for throwing.
Safety – if you drop it and the tip is retracted you do not damage the tip. Safety does not always refer to the safety of humans.
Hanson stud finder – nice!
1-2-3 Blocks are for calibrating/checking your tape measures etc… The are machined to exactly 1" 2" and 3" and not only as a woodworker but also a machinist these things are invaluable to me I probably have 12 floating around the shop and if you ever drop one on concrete might as well trash it cause a ding ruins their calibrations
Diet Mt.dew is not "Mt.dew"….it is absolutely disgusting and an insult to the real thing.
I’ve had Olga knives for over 20 years. And the idiot politicians made plastic straws illegal in Western Australia based on no evidence just feeling like it might make a difference. They are what you Americans call a liberal.
i dated the worlds simplest studfinder. she is very simple, but has no problem finding studs

I’ve never understood the obsession with 1-2-3 blocks. I have yet to see a use for them that I would need.
I think it started with the maker craze on youtube, which quite honestly I was kinda behind for a while until I watched a huge maker channel (maker in the name, lots of subscribers) build a rotisserie for his car. He welded the rotisseries, gave bad welding advice, but then ultimately used ratcheting straps to tie them together to keep the car stable. It was extremely unsafe, particularly if he was planning on welding on the car.
I’ve done some sketchy, unsafe things in my life, both in my hobbies and on the job sites, but I would NEVER put out a tutorial, or educational video out with one of these shady methods allowing someone else to get hurt and that drove home to me the point that so called "Makers" are largely self-taught, experimenters, and maybe just shouldn’t be teachers.
Paper straws instead of plastic….you know for the environment.
If you don’t already have one, DeWalt makes an (I wanna say 8v) Gyroscopic screwdriver that I got from home Depot like 7 years ago. And it’s awesome
Gringo makes fun of metric system.. twice… 😀 😀 😀 Bravo! That is another level of ignorance 😀
Amazon does have a 0.9mm version of that pentel pencil. We have that and also bought a 20 pack of cheap mechanical pencils to keep everywhere in the shop and kitchen since I only have the pentel when I need it 40% of the time.
Don’t use the Olfa as a screwdriver. Bent the tip and had to reshape it to get the blade out again.
for a long time, i used a pentel graphgear 500 as my drawing pencil, which doesn’t have the retractable tip like the 1000 does. i would constantly have little scratches on my leg from keeping it in my pocket. but it was the best mechanical pencil i’ve ever owned. those things are nigh indestructible.
Brooo I had that pencil in school! Used it for my entire 4 years of highschool 😂
As far as stud finders go, I rely on my C.H. Hansen stud finder. It has a built in level.
Depending on the tolerance, the 1-2-3 blocks can also make good parallels for machining.
Dewalt Razor: DWHT10045 mmm 🙂
I use a "Cordless Air Duster Blower" (that I bought on AliExpress) every single day in my workshop. It’s a high powered air blaster that can be used for blowing away saw dust from tables, tools, jigs, and even your clothes.
I don’t have an air compressor and this blower is relatively cheap (about USD$30) and is USB rechargeable.
I would definitely recommend it for any sized workshop!
Nother good use for straws is shimming depending on the thickness of the straw, cut it just right enough that you can set it on like a pully shaft to get a better friction fit.
Omg this video is so bright, please add some dark colors into those cabinets for viewers sake
I absolutely love the Pentel Graphgear series, I used to have the whole Graphgear 1000 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.9 mm set. My ONLY problem with them is they broke so fast. I was lucky if lasted longer than 1 semester.
I also use the tongue depressors as sanding sticks as well the coffee stirrers.
You should check out the Knipex 90 10 165 BK Utility knife!!
i like certain wheel based knife locks, lets me operate them with my pinky, depending on how stiff it is
Don’t 90% of scalpels or "Utility knives" as they’re apparently called over there have a locking feature where you just push the blade out, then pull back a portion to lock it? Sometimes it’s like a rocker, so you push the slider to lock it. Only ones I don’t find it on are insanely cheap, tiny ones that won’t need it as they’re too cheap to afford anything but the blade, plastic housing and sliding mechanism.
