let's go brian here in today's exciting episode
we look at tools that you need to not be annoying on a building site a basic kit of carpentry tools
a lot of moving stuff happening a lot of things happening guess what else happened
i painted the door i'm recording it from this angle because
then you can't see all the brush marks he did a good job you did a perfectly fine job
thank you so basically we're moving in a couple of days from this apartment and now that i've
done the construction side of the move i can get out of here i'll see you later jess obviously i'm
just joking there's even more of a mess at the storage container that i gotta sort out today
all right i gotta go it's okay see you later maybe another coat bye
had to be super ruthless and i had to get rid of a lot of tools
but i kept a core amount of tools that that i think are important
some of them need to go in the car with us and some of them will be packed away
we've managed to build up a little village kind of lifestyle for ourselves here
i'm driving what less than 10 minutes to the storage container
everything's kind of handy and this storage container in particular has been very handy
so all these units so these storage containers are hugely popular i get a lot of questions about
them but there's a huge waiting list for them a lot of people a lot of people are attracted
to it because it's far more affordable than your regular office or workspace
but the thing that makes it different from just a regular storage container is that you can run
a power lead across the roadway here and then you've got power and you can work in here so here
is my headache a lot of tools still left over after being ruthless after giving away so much
after letting go of my babies i still have this mess let's have a look let's have a closer look
so i spent the last month or so knocking down that bench that i built when i first got this place
that was storing tools and just getting things out of here and like i said i've got rid of a
lot of tools one of the things that i had a lot of was drop source i had two dwarf drop
source that i got for my dad like a decade ago and just the other day i gave him the
drop saw that you've probably seen the most in this channel the 10 inch dewalt i also
had that little milwaukee drop saw the little battery-powered one that one went to my uncle
my uncle andy who is um going to start a youtube channel and as soon as he does i'll talk about
it on here hanging in there how's your leg oh yeah ah hey buddy two days of antibiotics oil
he got a whole bunch of stuff i gave him nail guns i gave him the milwaukee drop saw i gave him some
of the pack out stuff but even after getting rid of three drop saws i've got two left over
the capex the one that i pull out for special occasions and my everyday 216 millimeter
makita 40 volt and all these kind of boxes here these clear boxes are filled with just clamps and
bits and bobs that are handy that i just couldn't throw out and then you've got the air bows on top
i could get rid of these i never use them i still have the compressor that powers them fills the air
up and the canisters but i don't want to get rid of them because they no longer make these
i like to set them up for like a future video and just really
put them to the test because these are two framing guns and that is a concrete gun
they say you don't know how much stuff you have until you try and move it
and i think that is very true i mean look at this thing here
can i still obviously have my makita 40 volt track saw this is my regular daily use one i've given
pydo the corded track saw that i had but even after giving away all these things i still have
a lot of stuff that i just can't let go off
so you get the idea right there's a lot of tools and that's just here in the container in the van
there's even more things i don't know what this um exciting episode is going to be cool but
let's go through a basic kit of carpentry tools that i would need to not be annoying for a day on
a building site that title's not going to work is it so circular saw obviously this one's a little
too big i don't think jess will be happy with that in the car so we'll just take this one here the
185 millimeter circular saw speaking of battery tools because i'm mainly on the 40 volt system
i'll take my little fan here being cordless it definitely needs the battery charger
and nowadays on building sites i'm mainly it depends what you're doing but i mainly use a drill
when it comes to fastenings i mainly use a drill so the impact driver gets the most use
but you also need the drill driver for the pilot holes and for drilling regular holes whether it's
putting a door handle in or something like that and the good thing about this box that
makita hooked me up with is it has all these compartments so i can actually store all the
40 volt batteries in there and as an extra bonus this little makita 40 volt pin gun
it only goes up to 40 millimeter brads but look how compact it is right it can fit nicely
well maybe not maybe not nicely but there you go it can fit in here
honestly so far jess is going to be very impressed two drills finishing down
only one charger all there isn't that amazing now of course on a building site i count this
as one tool but it has all your basics your hammer i like the titanium vorn deluge hammer
the little rubber grip on it little nail puller bar folding roller razor saw here for trimming
little pieces of timber i always like to have at least one
long tip mark pen a nail punch regular size an eraser no pencil marks a tape measure plus it's
eight meters and a chisel in case you need to break something apart and the last but not least
electric measuring tool i'm glad you could join me today
now of course important part of being a builder is not only building things
but but building things and making sure they're level our options are
limited being in a civilian vehicle so 0.6 is a bit short i think we could squeeze in a 0.8
safety is of critical importance that's why we need
ms safety glasses and not that these are hard to come by at the moment but a mask i almost forgot
not gloves but these are important too i almost forgot
drill bits and i almost forgot the nail gun dog bar and of course the trusty little pika pin
that's like the base oh i need the battery for the cokey gun
there's always going to be something and this pile is getting big to see already
that's actually a much more manageable pile of tools than i would have guessed
and also i'm going to add folding handsaw
to the list sometimes circular saw isn't quite right for the job handsaw can do it
a lot of people will say that all you need is a tool belt and a handsaw
if you're an apprentice for example but um if you want to not borrow tools from people and
not be annoying on a typical building site that's a great start i just messaged jess
with a picture of those tools and see what she let's see what she comes back with oh here we go
yeah it's quite a lot of volume but if that's what you need then we'll make it work
yo-yo
uh
and away we go you excited jess i'm tired i'm excited about this but i'm also very excited
our apartment's empty so now for the only thing that really matters
the only thing that matters is the tools let's be honest
there you go all packed ready to go the van is full and as you can see from that footage right
there the apartment is empty and the container and we're ready to go to the south island
and i packed everything i could possibly put in here and
secured it so when it's on the back of this truck that will take you to the south island
things weren't you know bounce around in the next study episode we go through the auckland border
that's a sentence i never thought i'd say all right exciting times ahead thanks for watching
