Best Tool Belt For Framing: My Everyday Carry in 2019

[@RRBuildings]

let me know your thoughts on the best bags and tools every framer needs to have

[@nimaischaeffer3626]

RR Buildings For me a few things I always look for when getting bags. 1. I always check for suspender clips because I usually wear my bags with suspenders. 2. Pouch for tape measure. I want one up high on my hip left that I can easily get in and out of I hate tape measure clips. 3. Less important but I love having handles on my bags too. 4. Spot for my speed square on my left of course gotta have that. 5. 3 to 4 pouches for hardware and and fasteners i like on main one on my left and maybe to smaller ones on my right 6. Phone pouch on my right hip high just a slim profile opening that I can slip my phone into. 7. Hammer sleeve close to my body just like you have on your bags.

I try not to be controversial, but in this case please allow me to comment. you inspired me to invest in a great belt and hammer, i am a roofer by trade. Maybe just maybe above and beyond the normal American level one of the best, but not famous or popular. the diamond back tool belt, the grande, almost lasted me a year it wore out, so far one side replaced and the hammer holster. I do appreciate the diamond back warranty. the hammer so far has held up no complaints... Thank you young man, if i was younger maybe i would do more...

[@mattb4885]

I love these kinds of videos. As an all around carpenter, I love seeing how others set up their rigs and gathering new ideas for my own. Mine currently is kind of a mess, but I set mine up rather similarly, though mine are much more cheap from the box store. Kind of a love hate thing but come time to upgrade last go around I didn't want to shell out hundreds on a new rig. Keep up the good work man, love watching your videos!

Occidental leather all the way,. I've went through a lot of bags in the last 15 years and nothing compares to how light weight and durable they are, I've had mine 4 years and they still look good. Worth every penny when your swinging a hammer every day.

[@timdraughon5897]

I have been using occidental bags for 13 years and have had no problems with mine will definitely buy another set

[@HomeEcGuy]

I'm primarily a solar technician and I love the idea of a tool belt but I run into a few problems. The number one problem has nothing to do with being a solar installer and has everything to do with having no hips so I have to tighten it down to insanely tight levels. The second issue I have is that I spend lots of time in attics crawling around and on roofs in awkward places so tools end up falling out....That being said I haven't found a perfect solution for my needs as a solar technician yet. I currently use the Milwaukee Packout bag with a shoulder strap and some small parts containers on bottom for my attic and roof work. Great video. I love seeing other tradesman's setups.

[@christiansantos8904]

How about a Veto? Maybe the MB3? I have the Tech Pac Backpack and TP4B⚡🤙. Waiting for the belt. Hoping they make a leather & nylon version.

[@billhannum4117]

I am a Carpenter primarily a framer. Been rocking occidental leather for 30 years but that diamond back grande looks like it's perfect for what I do most of the time. Man the hammer holster is brilliant . Big bags are what I need to and simple .

[@james-yc4jx]

this looks like a good system. I like the way the hammer hold angles toward the back instead of straight down. I dont like hammer on back either, but i also dont like it straight down side hitting leg or getting it caught on ladders. For me, i do a lot of repair work so cats paw/pry bar is a must and i like the angled sleeve tucked away for that. But, I prefer flaps on pouches as i have wasted too much time pickings nails and screws off ground after bending over a little too far or getting pouch hung up on a rafter or joist. Also have lost tape measure in same way off roof enough times to finally justify a "buy once, cry once" purchase. I went with the "Atlas 46" system and upgraded to the Harvey padded belt and it is very comfortable and fully customizable. Many specialty add on pouches to choose from and i bought one with a security flap for tape measure and one for cell phone.

[@24revealer]

I like the hammer holder too. The other companies should look at this feature in their bags.

[@xXelitegpXx]

You must barely ever use your tape measure if you keep it in the security pouch.

[@mc.9839]

I'm not a builder by trade. I was raised by a carpenter/contractor, worked with my dad through college, and took on many projects with him in my spare time after. I learned one thing about bags from him: USE SUSPENDERS. Pouch size and location is a preference. Suspenders are just smart.

[@redecks336]

I bought a blue Diamondback Tool belt from someone in San Antonio over 10 years ago (probably 12ish). Pouches looked new but the belt looked used. I've been wearing these bags since and they are showing virtually no signs of wear, not a torn stitch, not even close to having holes worn in them. Actually bought a new belt to attach my pouches too because after realizing I've been wearing them on my hips for over 10 years decided to get the right sized belt, makes a big difference. Diamondback belt are worth the money if you're a professional and serious about your career.

[@christophercrowle9753]

I bought the artisan a while back, was a big fan of occidental leather which is what I had before and I still highly rate them, but diamondback are just brilliant. I am thinking about changeing the left pouch which is currently the Eagle for ox for a bit of extra capacity. Also pondering the suspenders.

[@RRBuildings]

Good idea

[@garagedweller7159]

"70 year old man"LOL I'm 60, been wearing tool belts for 40 years and i like the ones that incorporate a back brace and I have been using suspenders for years to get the weight off my hips and back. Either way this career will make an old man out of you regardless. I never liked having my hammer in the center of my back and hate it.Like a large bag on my right side for my milwaukee impact,I don't like them hanging on a bag.I like when the bags are able to be moved on the belt so I can position them on my hips. Never had a sleeve, always a metal loop and The sleeve looks like it would be so much better. Thanks for this video. We can always adapt and change for a better work experience.

[@RRBuildings]

Thanks man... no offense about being 70

[@willsinclair4083]

Hey Kyle, I’m from the UK and awaiting the delivery of my first set of Diamond Backs. You should try the tip I use from Essential Craftsman, removing the tape measure belt clip. Makes it slip in and out of its pouch much easier. Love the tools day and build series videos.

[@trevorjolley7273]

Just when I thought I was done buying tool bags, ya got me considering the diamond backs. I currently run the Buckaroo leather tool belts and pouches. The initial break in was a lil painful with the belt due to the thickness of the leather. As time has gone on and I have almost one framing season with these bags, they have worn well, and the pouches are solid leather. They also ran around the 400 dollar range. I run a 4 pouch setup on the left hand side for all my fasteners, which i use every pouch when framing. Things I like about the looks of the diamond backs was that extra fastener bag ya threw out there at the end of the video. That would be extremely handy because it never fails that I have several projects in different phases of construction, and with that comes always switching out the nails and screws in the pouches. Otherwise they get really heavy and a cluster of a mess inside and then you're fighting for proper nail or screw all the time. Ya got me considering em! Thanks Kyle!!!!

[@RRBuildings]

Well I’ve heard good things about buckaroo but they look way to small for me

Im primarily a tiler and used to do bathrooms, but these days i am framing houses and garages most of the time. I had a cheap mastercraft framing belt that broke down only a few weeks after i got it. I live in Canada so my gear has to deal with the harsh winters. I am very close to pulling the trigger on a Diamondback Denali 2.0. Huge fan of the hammer holster and like the low profile, allowing you to maneuver through joists and rafters a bit easier than Occidental belts.

[@anthonysmith9410]

Because of you I spent a boat load of cash on Martínez squares.... I have the standard and the mini

[@schneal3]

I use a framing setup from Occidental Leather with their StrongHold Light suspenders. I find that without suspenders the bags fall down throughout the day. I also like suspenders because there is a chest pocket for my pencil. But if I’m working overhead, I take them off because they tend to wear on my shoulders. If I’m climbing a ladder or scaffolding, I love the rear facing hammer holder. It keeps my hammer out of the way and prevents it from banging my knee. I don’t have that fancy holster like you Kyle. :)

[@RRBuildings]

the hammer holster is great

[@andyvetter8672]

My first diamondbacks were from the original guy Jim that was in Alaska . They were the the Denali set . They lasted 13 yrs . I’m on my 2nd set now about 2 yrs . They by far are the best Toolbelt out there . They are very expensive but their worth every penny ! I love them . So comfortable that you don’t feel like your wearing them . I also have a custom set up for my trim belt . Conor @ Diamondback will help you out he is great over there .. Great video Kyle 🤙🏻

No suspenders? Its your choice not to, but they really do help distribute the weight and I'd recommend trying them. If you do get padded ones, I'm fairly happy with the TradeGear ones I bought off Amazon. If you're needing extra space get a Klein bolt bag and hang it off the back, if it fits on the belt of course, they're wide and super tough and can hold all sorts of parts or hardware.

[@jamesmoon1841]

I agree with your suspenders comment. I switched to remodeling and framing when I was 56. Could not stand the discomfort from waist suspended tool belts. I wore out a Bucket Boss suspenders tool belt post retirement. Very comfortable system for my 5-9 frame.

[@InLaymansTermsPlease]

It depends on what aspect of framing you do most. I do believe you should buy once, cry once when it come to bags and boots. They are the 2 tools that you literally use all day everyday. You use your saw, nail gun, hammer and other tools a lot but your bags and boots are being used more than anything and should be the most comfortable, durable and practical for what you do most. Take your time and find the one's that are best for you and then buy them.

Pray bars are super handy in general I use them all day from fake nails to pull things up flush to pounding it in the floor to push big walls where they need to be. I just wish one of the lower pouches was split into two sections down the middle. One for 8 Penny's one for 16 pennys

My question is on your tape measures,what are the longevity of them for you,and do you consider them consumable? I do metal fabrication ,and I use vintage Lufkin chrome clad. I keep a 12ft 1/2" every day on my belt and a 10ft pocket,but the larger ones don't last long maybe because of the return spring is hard on them. Did buy a Black widow last year and like it.For me its hard to look at a yellow tape.

Thanks Kyle. Is there a code for the Grrande?

[@jamesjansen4699]

awesome video my Milwaukee pouch is getting down to its last legs going to be looking at diamondback for sure

[@ThomasSteed]

I really like them side sleeves for your longer awkward tools. I've litterally HATED every hammer loop Ive ever had, in the back if im squatting, hammer pushes up falls out, or jabs my lower back. On the side damn handle smacks my leg all day. If I decide to buy or make myself new leather bags, Im gonna make those... or buy some. Currently Im a grounds/maintenance technician so my EDC is a husky pro 4 barrel pouch (velcro flap) and a kanroot hori hori sheath, that I actually hang on a water bladder pack with 2 zipper pouches for my nonessential access EDC tools( like my extra adjustable wrench, hex keys, and lock pick set), and door tags (maintenance was/is here). I really like the way the weight is distributed on my shoulders, so my next set of bags will be getting shoulder straps too.

[@benmcaullay5120]

im a left hander, how does the hammer holster work if i put the bag on the other side? or can you not do that?

[@SoberJokR]

Ben McAullay you can order them for lefties

Hey great video ,but I was wondering when that battery Milwaukee nail gun is coming out u had said its coming in October I'm just curious if u know where you would find it .. And I was curious if u know if Milwaukee 's got them nibblers that u guys use for cutting steel

[@andyvetter8672]

Peter Miller that Milwaukee nailer is coming in March .. I know it sucks but I’ve been researching & my tool store told me this awhile back . Milwaukee is backed up on it because I think everyone wants it . Haha you can pre order on Acme tools

[@curtiswilliams7638]

I'm left handed and I noticed a problem with pneumatic nailers, the mechanism for reloading is always on the left side for reloading with the right hand, so I need pneumatic nails on the left and hand nails on the right it's so awkward

[@AngelMartinez-me1bf]

[@DixieNormous1]

Ordered a set!!!! I do alot of vinyl siding and carry roofing nails. The other Diamondback pouches are small,Badger has too long of wait time. My Occidental adjust to fit fat lips are too heavy
