50 Tools You Need To Survive Life | 31 - 40

[@bennunyour4121]

If you have 20 tools left and only 10 spots than give us some honorable mention tools that didn't quite make the list.

[@GeN56YoS]

I came just to write that lol

[@cindymarshall4449]

I'm a female that just loves, loves, loves this channel. It reminds me of growing up on the farm my family still owns in Oregon.

[@cavemanjack3078]

Eyesopen Nofear That reminds me that I need to convince my son to find a good ol'Farm girl!.

[@williamlongworth8174]

The wrench set is a set of combination wrenches. Box end wrenches are only closed, either on both ends or only on one end.

[@benmarcus3622]

I bet he is missing his 10mm socket

[@nateellis5939]

Ben Marcus pretty sure you're missing your 10mm. I know I am. Do you think they transport to some alternate dimension?

[@benmarcus3622]

Nate Ellis Prehaps a dimension where all the 10mm are free to live peacefully with their ratchet mates, and not have to worry about being thrusted on each other

[@MrLifeissomething]

He doesn't even have a metric socket set. Everytime he gets under his truck he just calls a mechanic. "I ain't touchin' no metric."

[@motormaker]

You could always do a video list of ten “alternate tools or honorable mentions”.

[@DEADB33F]

"Top 10 viewer suggestions" would be a good one.

[@motormaker]

James Bradwell Yeah. That sounds good too.

[@IceAngler]

Earth to commenters: No one really cares that he said "men". Can we all just watch the video and talk about the best versions of tools he features?

[@dutchcourage7312]

While i agree with you, it's quite obvious that people get all triggered and tied up in these things, doesn't really matter which side they stand... it's as annoying as water in your ear, but what can you do, it's already quite obvious they won't listen to reason ;)

[@IceAngler]

Dutch Courage argh. You're right. It's just frustrating to see the entire comment section on a tirade about 1% of the video. ....this video could be about literally anything and you'd have no clue by just reading the comments.

[@mcmahon1130]

TotalBogie It's because the religious right likes to pretend that everyone everywhere is overly sensitive when in reality they're just being told that racism and misogyny isn't cool.

[@AppalachianLife]

Can't say anything these days without triggering someone. As dad used to say "you do not have the right not to be offended."

[@paulangeli9710]

John Harris Another expression I use to describe this is "I can only offend you with your permission ".

[@royreynolds108]

Amen Paul

[@dutchcourage7312]

I see what you mean John, you seem to be the perfect example... ...

[@Rorschach313]

Cody, thank you for not folding at the start of the video regarding "common man". Thank you for not catering to an overly sensitive minority but rather stating the obvious and moving on. Its sad how pointing to the obvious now has to be a kind of stance but thats how it is nowadays. Thank you for your integrity.

[@gustikrof189]

i guess i understand where you are coming from. but dont you think including minoritys can make a positive difference?

[@Andrew-hw9fq]

We should be very wary to not underestimate the power and influence of language.

[@Rorschach313]

Gusti Krof Well heres the thing, all he was saying was "common man". Its a term that essentially means "unskilled person" in relation to trades; it can also mean "regular person" or "everyday people". The problem i have with bowing down to overly sensitive people in general is that 1. People need to have a thicker skin when it comes to INTENT with language since thats where problems lie usually. And 2. Its never enough for overly sensitive people. For instance: lets say he corrected himself from saying "common man" to "common person". Then someone will say something to the effect of "why did you have to use the word common? That seems like a negative use of the word!" Or "why did you use the word person, I identify as a non-binary demi-person, half elf, broni-kin! Im offended! Its never enough with people so use the common word, understand its a word that wasnt meant for exclusivity as to only men because that would be silly.

[@Rorschach313]

Andrew Hughes Intent with language is more important then specific words in my opinion. Especially since people can easily get caught up with the finer minutia of "what did he REALLY mean?" Its pretty easy to sus out what a person mean by how theynsay something rather then whats said. Just look up Louie C.K.s "Jews" bit: "Jew is the correct word for talking about someone Jewish, but if you put a little stank on it it becomes a negative term." Its all about how someone says something rather then what they say usually.

[@gustikrof189]

i totally agree with your first point. and if he would have said something along the lines like "i use common man to refer to all people, its just the term i use for it" it would have been totally ok with me. but he is saying that men are the majority among his subscribers, so he doesnt care about the 5 percent of women who watch him because they arent as important. i think it is true when he says that there is nothing sexist behind it. because in my opinion it just seems unpolite. to the second point... i guess you can assume that. but youll never know for sure until it happens. in my opinion it would be dumb too yeah, but at the moment we arent talking about a non-binary demi-person, half elf, broni-kin. we are talking about women who enjoy his content and would like to be included in the group he is refering to when talking about his audience or the people using the suggested tools.

[@tombob671]

As a toolaholic I want the entire tool section of Ace Hardware in my shop Lol

[@jackkirkpatrick2849]

You never cease to amaze me. In a different video of yours you broke out the Dont's for Husbands book and I loved how you spoke of your wife and the relationship you have with her. It's so similar to my wife and I. We relate to you guys a lot. I absolutely love it. You give us hope that it's still possible in this day in age to find true love and happiness. Thank you so much. Also, I'm glad you stood fast at the beginning of this video and said, hey, it's ok for men to have some of their own stuff. Haha. Thank you for all you do. God bless.

[@BH-rx3ue]

fun fact: man/men originally meant people so when you refer to things like "countrymen" it means country people not country male but i find people lack the skills of etymology

[@HagiTakanashi1]

B & A Talks fun fact: in japan salaryman also refers to women.

[@shanelennon912]

Well said

[@joev7587]

"one small step for man one giant leap for mankind"

[@mdfogarty]

etymology? what do insects have to do with it? ;-)

[@indianasquatchunters]

mdfg+ Can't till if this is a brilliant joke and a misread of the word either way it's funny!! I'm going with the former.

[@LanceSheppard]

Also remind people to look at yard sales go to auctions or estate sales for tools! Fine tune your abilities with second hand tools. Learn to rehandle tools. Great video Cody.

[@kieranmatzky181]

AMEN

[@cindymarshall4449]

Lance Sheppard ....YES! Older tools found at yard sales are the BEST!

[@Wicked_4355]

I’ve found some gems at pawn shops as well!

[@LanceSheppard]

Wicked 4355 i always forget about pawn shops!

[@johncaudell1618]

It’s hard to beat old American made tools auctions is the best place to find big Stout vices

[@chriscc7148]

Great series. I'm glad my grandad gave me so many good tools when I was a kid. Wish he was still around.

[@brumageret]

Don't sweat the five percenters, Cody. Keep up the good work and God Bless.

[@Yousitech]

Harbor freight floor jacks are actually really good. Watch any review of them

[@Xenooni]

thanks for the rational thinking my dude.

[@kodonosaki7342]

A Combination Wrench Set is what you showed us.

[@dalemcinnes1834]

Yes you are right. They have a box end and an open end so that makes them a combination wrench. The box end wrenches have a box end wrench on both ends and an open end wrench has an open end on both ends. The combination wrench has taken over in popularity. Dale in Canada PS. Not in the West coast nor in the East coast but right in the middle.

[@jwilliams3170]

These have been great. I'm a young married guy and new homeowner and my dad has never been the handiest guy (still a great father and I wouldn't trade him for the world) so I am building my tool arsenal without a lot of influence and these have been great. Also just in time for Christmas!

[@gpaine]

The harbor freight jacks seem to have a pretty good reputation. And since this is the internet, my anecdotal evidence matters. So, mine has lasted excellently! Thus, they rock!

[@karnesmotorsports]

Greg Paine I've had great luck with mine too. My dad has one that's about 25 years old that still works perfectly fine too.

[@Zeppodone1000mg]

Harbor freights Pittsburgh and Daytona jacks are both excellent

[@harveynicholson1870]

You should do a fallow up after #50 with all the ones you wanted to include, but didn't make the cut!

hahahahah

[@nicholaswatkins3123]

Same goes for chisels

[@jameslouden2899]

“This is a great file! Where is it made?... India?! Maybe it’s not a great file” 😂😂😂

[@monsieurwhite337]

I really look forward to these videos. I have a Word document list of each tool you showcase. I'm closing on my first home at the end of the month, and while I have eighty percent of these tools, it's good to realize I'm lacking a couple of the basics. Now to cross off the entire checklist! Keep up the great work!

[@MrAtf58]

Do you think you could turn it into a drive doc and share it? It would be awesome if I didnt have to rewatch all the videos again. thanks

[@christopherblakeley]

Cory Dillard First house, Congratulations! Now the "fun" begins!

[@monsieurwhite337]

Austin Fink I will send it to you once he completes the series. There are a couple videos where he did not list ten tools, so I'll send what I have. I've made a small separate list of other tools he's spoken about over the years, so fill in the blanks as you please.

[@kccreations5945]

Cory Dillard I would be interested in the list as well if you don’t mind! Congrats on the house!

[@mgpvii]

You are leaving us hanging...I need the last 10. I was bragging to my wife as to how I was missing only 4 tools out of the 40 you listed. I'm curious as to how many of the last 10 I have.

[@polobiju9300]

7:56 "Oh, where is this made... India... it's probably not a great file". Ok mate.

[@soveless963]

When I was landscaping we would buy the regular fiberglass handled tools, pop off the ends and fill the hole with expanding foam, adds a supriseing amount of durability on the cheap!

[@chevyon37s]

The Harbor freight larger floor jacks like the 3 ton one are pretty damn solid jacks. I've had mine for years now and installed a few lift kits, over 20 leveling kits, changed ball joints, etc and, rotated my tires many times and the jack is still working perfectly fine. No leaks, only greased the pivot a few times a year. Great jack for the money for the DIY person.

[@neilrankin4133]

Tekton is the way to go on "combination wrenches" (not box end). Super high value and quality made in Taiwan. Highly recommend for wrenches and socket/ratchet sets.

[@randal3122]

we had a harbor freight floor jack that was amazing. we beat it up racing for like 10 years and it never quit. i still have it. its few and far between, but some things at harbor freight are great

[@skiff27]

I know some people may not agree with me but this is what I used to carry in my SUV and I also do a lot of driving. This is what I think and suggest have a good day

[@DaleHok]

did i miss 41 thru 50? great series of videos.

[@redskinsfan2828]

Where are the links!

[@SABjork]

Love your Videos! Swedish Bow Saw, instead of the big Boy. Even better, a Reciprocating (cordless or corded) saw will replace your big-boy, bow saw and hacksaw. PS (You had three hammers, remember the sledge hammer. :)

[@raygetoutdoors6151]

Great job Cody . . . this could help a lot of guys and gals who don't work too much with tools but want to start learning what they should get. Ray, Oklahoma

[@donovanluna3945]

What about tie down straps?

[@NickNM1921]

Bahco farmers file is a great file for woods tools. One side single cut fine. The other corse double cut. Coast about 12 bucks.

[@donlockhart2587]

Just a quiet comment saying my family and I love the channel and all the videos, and it is a joy to listen to someone who is passionately living thier dream. I will end in saying thank you for the entertainment and knowledge you have brought to us and I hope youll continue to do so for as long as you are able. God Bless and good luck!

[@davidmiller4728]

Really enjoying this series! I’ve been becoming more and more fascinated with tools over the past couple years and just can’t get enough of them! It would be great if you could add a handful of “honorable mentions” at the end of the next video, just for fun. ;)

[@pdg9582]

Where's 41-50? I've been waiting for the finale.

I've been looking too.

The Little Giant ladder one of the best all around ladders made. American made. So good most fire departments have one and they make one just for the fire service.

[@oilhammer04]

The masculine terms we use are the generic terms and is understood to include women in many cases until the feminists showed up.

[@ian-op5fv]

Even if it's geared towards men; there's nothing wrong with that.

[@1986Honda4trax]

oilhammer04 yea its a shame people get angry for no reason

[@amarbaha]

Literally used the wrenches today after breaking down at the gas station to change a battery in the -20 weather! Put them in the truck a week ago after watching this! Ty Cody

[@raphaelbeinhauer9242]

The ratchet extensions will also work as a power drill adapter as long as they fit. My drill has a wider than usual opening, which helps with that.

[@aidanmcfarlane7891]

[@mikeross4681]

I have one of those Rogue rakes, it’s awesome. They have two sizes, I like the smaller one because the big one is awful heavy.

[@m3voj]

In the UK we use imperial (standard) measurements more than you may think. We buy beer in pints, measure height in feet, distance in miles and yards, weight in stone and pounds and ounces and speed in mph!

[@ringerson4x4]

Used a 20 ton bottle jack and my house as a hydraulic press. I was rehandling a Peavey and I had to press the point into the handle to lock the head in place, so I went into my basement put the handle under the center 2x12's of my house, bottle jack on the floor and presto.

[@maehay4065]

My brother Spencer was using a cheap Jack years ago to lift up the rear of a trailer to fix a tire and he tried lining up the jack handle and he almost lost one of his fingers! I’ll never forget because of the pain he suffered from that incident ...

[@SB-gz5vh]

Men/man refers to humans as a collective but even if it didn’t what’s the problem like you said it’s okay for us to have our own things just how women have their own.

[@justinbeery5194]

Gotta agree with this guy the tools I love are my flat basterd fiel, my spud wrenches, my adjustable wrench sets, 8 pound beater, two bull pins, 36 inch connecting bar,30 inch crow bar, two hard hats.

[@drewcarey13]

I love watching all of your videos and enjoy your content! I disagree on only getting 1/2 inch socket set if you can only get one. 1/2 inch is really heavy and cant fit in some places you may need tighter clearances. The 3/8 set is in the middle of 1/4 and 1/2 for a reason :) i think that is the perfect set if only getting one.

[@russrockino-rr0864]

To clarify without being snarky: Those wrenches are combination wrenches with a box wrench on one side and an open end wrench on the other side. Nice set by the way

[@mylesreay3259]

You needmto put a bench vice in this

[@jewermank8536]

Man ive been counting down the days for this video! Seems like forever! Love them, enjoy seeing what i have and what i may need! And value your opinion! Thanks!

[@Doomgel]

I straight up broken a 1/2 breaker bar without a pipe it was trying to get a crankshaft pully bolt off. I also have used Pittsburgh (Harbor Freight) floor jack and it's served me well working on cars. However, I recommend going the next grade up and get the Daytona low profile jack.

[@charlesw665]

Where are the links to the tools?

[@gearhead3585]

SJWs will always complain about something.... keep up the good work W*!!!!

[@chrisgriffith1573]

I don't have need for a lot of these tools, (not really), however, hearing your examples of how I might need them and how they could be useful sticks with me! SO if I am ever in need, I'll know just what to get! Thank you so much for your "fatherly" advice for all of us who didn't have a dad that was so mechanically inclined!

[@peterandbrittanyheindel5830]

I know harbor freight doesn't have great quality but I have had one of their better quality floor Jacks now for 3 years and it works great. No issues up to now

[@LassetUnsSpielen]

I hate when people are making up a morale discussion out of exceptions. Men do heavy work, women wear high heels and makeup. Of course there are some women doing heavy work and some men wearing high heels and makeup. ►Think before complaining

[@JerkRice]

You are right. I was anticipating this video and it was well worth the wait. Looking forward to the grand finale of the series.

[@ysouuctkusbse]

Don't back down on your stance against the metric system! I just found your channel last month and it's now the the only one I've subscribed to.

[@nfp212]

No need to apologize, Wranglerstar. I'm just sorry the series will be over soon!

[@lukeescamilla9386]

We have hay equipment and a pretty big tractor and my favorite tool we have is a 3/4 “ breaker bare and that it a few feet of 1 1/4 pipe and there is nothing that can stop it.

[@Matthew-mq6fz]

You should open your videos with Aaron Copland's 'Fanfare for the Common Man.' When people complain about it, remind them that it was used to open Obama's inaugaration celebration. Minds--Blown.

[@emilybrown8089]

Matt Bos excellent idea, hopefully it's not copyrighted.

[@stewartsanson68]

You have to include a good set of chisels.. absolute must have. Can't think how many times I go to my chisels.

[@kirkq2]

I don’t know Cody I think you could have said a good mechanic’s kit and saved a few slots by putting all wrenches, sockets, breaker in one kits. Maybe that’s cheating and you’d get flack.

[@WilliamWonka]

I agree with this. I bought a decent 100+ mechanic tool set that’s lasted me 5+ years, using it at about the rate he talks about. I’m no mechanic but I do most of my own maintenance. Packs small, includes three drive sizes and box ends. I’d pack that and save 4 slots. Love this video series though.

[@cleanerlakes]

I’m 39 for 40 right now. Don’t own a breaker bar but I do have a mechanic friend, so I just use his. Lol.

[@jacktar6877]

I spent nearly the whole video waiting for you to step back on the head of the rake and get a wack in the family jewels. Not that I mean you any harm but it's a good way to remind a person to stow things safely. Good Videos , keep them coming.

[@stefanodogg280]

I just received my Silky Big Boy and I can't believe how light it is. Almost feels flimsy but the trick is using it correctly with a draw cut and little pressure, and not returning it hard or fast. I got it for my 4 x 4 to backup my Stihl chainsaw. Going to make my own bullhide sheath

[@chrisgriffith1573]

The big boy silky has serrated teeth, and for a small hand saw, it makes large branches no problem! I had not bought a chain saw for the fact that these serrated tooth hand saws are so good!

[@eberherrera9418]

Well I level houses and in old houses bottle jacks are the way to go...but fiberglass over aluminum ladders, once the aluminum ones bend it’ll usually finish bending on the spot

[@manuelbou2576]

You have won my confidence in your intellectuality by your introductory statement about the 5%. now I'll definetly watch your videos more and contribute to your channel as much as I can.

[@jamesw6583]

Is there a 41 to 50 video, or do I just not see it?

[@chiefmik9108]

Nice Job Cody... You will also need to mention of what type of Box would you recommend to store all of these tools.... Chief

[@Koshunae]

Sorry Cody, when talking about the wrenches, you referred to them as box end wrenches and the mechanic in me is screaming COMBINATION WRENCHES!

[@user-xk1zt2ds4b]

What happened to the last 10 tools? @ 00:40 you ask, "What are we at 40? 40?" That was incorrect as your video title correctly labeled these tools as #31 - #40. This leaves #41 - #50 still left to be completed. Are you planning on releasing said video, or filming it if you have not already? I was really into this series and had used it to fill any gaps in my own personal tool supplies. I would greatly appreciate any information as to why you will or why you wont, be showing us the final 10 tools. I understand you are busy but I regarded this series as a perfect fit and was happy to watch multiple viewing to ensure a comprehensive rationale as to the inclusion of each tool and why it was important and what made it different from other tools. I look forward to finishing the series, if that is indeed your intended conclusion.

[@MrBoredom123]

Been becoming more and more of a fan of Tekton. Generally, the quality is better than the price.

[@blackwolf7777]

In regards to the breaker bar, my dad showed me that in a pinch(Which is really my go to method.) you can use a steel pipe slid over a ratchet hand to extend the length and essentially turn it into a breaker bar. I know that's not ideal but especially with a cheap ratchet but it has worked for me on many a car project.

[@kieranfoster902]

Happy Christmas. I've really liked 1-40. Are you going to finish 41-50?

[@spartanswerve7575]

Very interesting segment. Got me out in the shop re-evaluating my collection.

[@scoob2569]

There are special sockets for spark plugs, they prevent breaking and gently grip the spark plug with a rubber ring, so you can pull it out with the socket

[@fiveminutebushcraft4759]

If you ever get a four or six foot ladder pay the extra money and find a double sided one on Amazon it’s the nicest thing ever to have both sides not just one side

[@mvblitzyo]

Did not know about the wild land rake . Thanks

[@420Homestead]

Too bad you didn't end up finishing this series...

[@KillingerUSA]

Correction, most cars in the states are metric. Save your money and don't bother with SAE, unless you will be working on heavy truck.

[@jago668]

Rubber mallet makes a third hammer. Sometimes stuff needs persuading that you don't want to mark up.

[@BrianBeck]

So that missing socket, I'd bet it's your 10mm that went wandering off, at least that's the one I am always looking for. Have a great day, love your videos and agree with your choices.

[@kade12345678910]

if you could only have one ladder I would suggest a multiposition ladder. otherwise a 28ft ext and 8ft A-frame. There is a lot of things I couldn't do with just an extension especially indoors.

[@jamesgreene4554]

I have to say a good torque wrench is an important tool. I hate stripping bolts, and having mower blades to pop off. I bought an older snap on torque wrench 16 years ago, and still use it every time I can.

[@nathanhershey7897]

Funny thing is I broke a 1/2 snap on breaker bar yesterday at work. I work in a industrial metal fab shop and had to release a crushed cross threaded 3/4 bolt in a docking cylinder.

[@royreynolds108]

I saw a tee shirt recently: I CAN EXPLAIN IT TO YOU BUT I CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT FOR YOU. If you have a jack that leaks, it usually is repairable--seals and pump is replaceable.

[@davidmack7018]

Cody, suggestion if it need be twenty more things that's not too much nor many let us pick and choose. Thank you, for making my life the better by watching your KZbin, keep on shinning. a light set upon a hill. David

[@BrentWolff]

My choice of combination wrenches, If I was limited to one, is the Gear Wrench brand ratcheting combination wrenches. I used them professionally for years, never an issue.

[@KaylynnStrain]

I live in a small apartment with no yard so a rake is useless to me, but that rake you showed at the beginning looks quite unusual. I still like to have a few tool for basic repairs I can do myself

[@dutchcourage7312]

All these tools are based upon his experience in homesteading, there are numerous tools i have no use for either, so that context is pretty important... actually his rake comment was the way you should look at all of these suggestions. Would i have a use for them where i live and what i do. If not, it may not be a tool you need.

[@ratoneJR]

box end wrench is really a combination wrench

[@1bestrafung]

I'm really enjoying these videos. I understand how difficult it must be to whittle down to a list like this. I'm in complete agreement so far. One thing I'd like to add though is that anyone looking for socket sets for heavy work should look at the 3/4" drive sets at Harbor Freight. You can get a SAE and Metric for $60 each and have extra ratchet/extension in case one breaks. I never though I'd need a 3/4 drive set for anything short of a tractor or truck over 1 ton but my little S-10 required a 3/4 drive set for the axle nuts (I broke several 1/2 drive sockets and ratchets).

[@philipculbertson55]

Actually, the wrench set shown is a "combination wrench" set, not "box end." Box End wrenches have boxed ends on both ends. Combination wrenches have one end open end and the other box end. Yeah, I like files with integrated handles also. One less thing to break, lose, fall off, etc.

[@Stoic_Zoomer]

That extra weight on fiberglass really doesn't mean much when your working with electricity
