    I’d love a video about some terms that are used, like what is a reveal, a return, a bead, etc. I watch so many videos that use the terms and sometimes I’m confused about exactly what it is referring to. thanks!!

    I want to start learning carpentry after watching this video. Can u guide from where i start. I am presently at zero level no ide about tools



  24. Robert Davis on April 25, 2022 at 6:59 pm

    This is a great video with the perfect tool list. I just retired this past year after 44 years in carpentry, and I’ve carried your exact list of tools in my nail bags for at least the last 40 years. I prefer an Estwing hammer too, and I don’t have elbow or shoulder problems, and for many years, we drove all the nails in a house or barn with our Estwing hammers not nail guns or high dollar titanium hammers.



  25. mac red on April 25, 2022 at 6:59 pm

    Where’s the hand saws…. Or do you use mainly power tools?



  26. Fernando Madrigal on April 25, 2022 at 7:00 pm

    You need a tool belt to put those tools in.



  42. Revol on April 25, 2022 at 7:21 pm

    Now I know what I have to buy. Thank you so much, mister.



  43. Megazoid2016 on April 25, 2022 at 7:22 pm

    Why is there no plumb bob in your tool kit?



  44. Venkatesh B on April 25, 2022 at 7:23 pm

    Hi sir, can you suggest me which are important places to use pocket hole jig or we to have use on all places of joining for plywood



  45. Tyler Johnson on April 25, 2022 at 7:25 pm

    What belt do you have? I’ve been looking for a set of bags that includes a pouch specifically for my speed square.



  46. stockguru on April 25, 2022 at 7:25 pm

    Where in India do you buy from



  47. SirRobinDeSway on April 25, 2022 at 7:25 pm

    Subscribed!



  48. Krista Sparks on April 25, 2022 at 7:26 pm

    This guy is the bomb. I have all of these tools- but then again, I have probably a hundred or more accumulated over the years and most recently a huge construction/renovation project; I feel like I’m always looking for the right tool for something but can’t ever find it! I realize this is more of an organizational/personal problem, but the point is it is so nice to have this “quick guide” to pick which ones to keep handy in my tool belt/bag. I happen to agree, these are the ones I always end up needing the most. This channel is definitely worth subscribing to and following- I love the way he explains things for some reason. It’s simple but not mind-numbingly so, and it doesn’t feel like I just wasted 15 or more minutes of my life trying to find one point or tip. It bugs the crap out of me when people in videos repeat themselves over and over and/or take forever to get to what the title of the video implies they will be demonstrating or talking about. Maybe those are preferable/helpful for some folks, but for someone with an existing working knowledge of general woodworking/tools and just needs tips or clarification here and there, this guy is where it’s at! Thanks so much!
