I use 5 of these items every day at work. I need the flashlight and tweezers. Great tips too.

[@PersonaN007Grata]

I really appreciate that you demonstrated practical applications with these tools! You don’t usually see that on KZbin. Thank you.

[@chrisnotap]

Thanks for that feedback!

[@colbysmith9218]

That was, without a doubt, the best small tool & gadget video I've ever seen. And, clearly, you use all of theses, know them well, and trust them. All of them were incredibly practical as well. I recently paid a ton for the most fancy-pants stud finder I could find, thinking that maybe this one would work well...but all it does is bleep, flash, and cross signals...and the display shows a dazzling array of useless information. The one you reviewed is amazing. I intend to hunt one down for myself. I''m also saving this video for my husband to watch later..we love a good gadget video! :D

[@chrisnotap]

Wow! Thanks for that great feedback!!

[@chrisnotap]

Yes! That is the best screw driver I have had!

[@MatSmithLondon]

Hello! I have a slightly higher end Dewalt laser with three lines and have been using it for a few years regularly. On a building site where studs are exposed. So I just keep screwing the mount in. I always get annoyed it can’t be adjusted up or down quite enough. And soon the walls will be boarded up with plasterboard so that won’t be an option. I’m always annoyed I can’t just quickly put it anywhere. Your ideas with the square and the clamp were genius. Bravo! This will change my life in a small but meaningful way! Thank you. It was ingenious and I loved it!

[@markfriesen1435]

The sound you hear is me chucking my terrible stud finder out the window so I can get that nifty Franklin one! What a game changer

[@RobertBeckk]

My buddy has one similar, I hate it. with the stanley one I have you can turn the stud finder and essentially you can triangulate where the sensor in the stud finder is and find the exact edge of the stud every time. I never miss studs.

[@dalebabbitt6185]

@@RobertBeckk what you're saying about the stanley sounds interesting but I'm not sure about what it is you mean. Can you elaborate? Thanks

[@RobertBeckk]

@@dalebabbitt6185 if you tilt it, imagine a crooked picture frame. The stud finder will beep differently, essentially you mess with the stud finder enough and you can pinpoint exactly where the stud starts and ends. I may upload a video to explain.

Outstanding selection! I have worked in both commercial Construction and Demolition, I own 3 of the 10 items listed, will be shopping for the rest. The tweezers are priceless! With that nice multi- bit Canadian made screw driver, it will also accept big box store =(cheaper) replacement tips, you might want to put your good bits and spares in an Altoids tin with a rare earth magnet and hide it in you pocket as no one but a jerk will steal your nice driver if there are no tips with it... just my experience

I have all of these items except for the screw driver and the light. These are all a must have for any one that does handy work of any kind. Also a note about Franklin Sensors. They are one of the best customer service companies. I dropped my sensor down a elevator shaft. I sent it in to see what could be done they sent me a new unit with a check for my shipping.... Super Cool

[@MrJdsenior]

The push through bit design is genius, no lost bits. They're going to sell a crap load of those stud sensors, what an improvement. I can see where it might even be handy to own two of those jackable 'holders' for doing cabinetry, etc. In the right positions on the cabinets it would take almost no effort to install a cabinet straight and level...positioned properly it would probably hold it hands off, leaned a bit to the wall and slightly toward the center of the cabinet, each side, and further from the wall than the CG, on anything short of a slick wall. Thx Chris, great stuff, as always.

[@mike41062]

Some really great practical tools! Most lists are kinda for a niche, are completely random, or are the sane items (carpenters pencil, speed square, etc).. Loved your list and how you showed how well they worked. Love the ball on that scraper, it just makes total sense and probably really helps with leverage and comfort.

[@dcvariousvids8082]

Normally I look at such presentations and find 1-2 gizmos I could one day need. But on the whole, have either never needed in the past and or are never likely to need in the future. However, your selection of gizmos with brief description and how-tos, have highlighted two things. I could use all of those, as I’ve needed them in the past and made do with what was to hand, sometimes with frustrating results. Plus, I’ve evidently not got nearly enough handy gizmos, that could actually be both easy to us and useful in their own right. Thank you. Now off to the links and make my list.

I have had an Olight Baton for a few years - I'm in my nineties and very active but I have eye problems from old age and have to use the light all day for just about everything.
