Been a carpenter for 43 years. Started in the days of steam power and coal fired air compressors . Loved all the advances in tools through the years . One little tool I would recommend highly is .. Wait for it .. Visegrip locking C clamps with a swivel pads. Great for clicking down a straight edge or stud for ripping sheathing like a table saw . , Great for holding up a collar tie temporarily or cinching up rafters to ceiling joist and holding them before you blast a thousand nails and shred the lumber . It acts like another set of hands that don't argue or wiggle on you .

Hey Coffman. This is a little late just saw the vid. But I highly recommend getting clamps, mainly quick clamps the things you can do with them is unreal. On my crew we run 3 sizes a 16", 2' and a 3'. We rock DeWalts they produce 600ft pounds. And a cool thing that some may not know is they are reversible so they push as well. And lastly is a oscillating multi tool, from cutting shims quickly to cutting it tight spaces it's very handy. Pro tip don't force the tool it cuts faster with minimal pressure.

Great video. We use a rotational transit laser just before sheeting the first floor to make sure the floor is level. The foundation can be and usually is not level, so we shim where needed to help prevent problems down the line. Framing square is big. Pneumatic staplers, battery powered flashlight when/if needed for basement jobs, air chisel set or your own “death saw” (chop saw that is taken off the base) for poorly poured beam pockets, .22 calibre nail gun for fastening into concrete, and most importantly a radio to blast some good tunes…if it ain’t a good tune, it ain’t a good time!🤘

It converts to 12th’s to calculate plans ect.,. It’s a little more cash however for what you do I believe it will fill gaps you might hv?

Framing in Colorado as well. I have to carry a .22 cal Hilti to connect 2x to steal beams. Maybe you could add that to you next video. Also a jack is brought with me to be able to lift and shim the beams flush. And another tool I carry is a battery powered 3/8" drill to tighten the anchor bolts down. A hammer drill with a drill bit to get either RedHeads or Titans installed. And I'd say last cold be an air tank to improve the capacity of air, especially when sheeting. But great video, all the tools you have get the job done perfectly!

That to allways needing to be reset because it draws a lot of power from the generator I’m trying out the Dewalt 4.5 compressor now looking for a better compressor over the fortress

If youre ever cutting pressure treated lumber, PVC, hardie material (concrete board) I would highly recommend a mask. I dont often wear one if im making cuts outside or just cutting typical spruce.

How do you feel the Metabo compares to the Makita Hypoid/36v worm drive? Obviously we have the Skilsaw wormdrives, but those probably fall into the category of too heavy to carry around up high or on a ladder.

I prefer the Metabo because it’s lighter, I used the makita for a few years before it

The Makita is a good saw, but the Metabo is almost 2lbs lighter. That's a huge difference on a tool your carrying around all day. Almost everyone in my area is using that Metabo now, even if they aren't on that platform. A rear handle that's the weight of a sidewinder? That's the holy Grail to any framer right there.

Maybe it’s a regional thing, but when I was framing a framer needed a saw, usually a Skill model 77 worm drive, 200’ of extension cord, nail bags and a 4’ level. Everything else was cared in the foreman’s truck and on the trailer. When I started a finish carpentry business I had to buy everything. I don’t know about where you are but here you’re going to make 60000 bucks a year framing and most people won’t do it for that price.

Yeah, I've always loved the Skil circ saws. Even the cheaper standard configuration models. I have just about every tool you can imagine and when it comes to circ saws - I get the best results from Skil. Metabo HPT impacts, drills and cordless nailers. I don't have a worm drive Skil at the moment but I've damn near bought one several times lately.

@@dilldowschwagginz2674 out here in the southwest, I started framing in about 1978 when I was going to college, I still have the worm drive Skill 77 I bought then it works fantastic still, I bought a Mag 77 when they came out. Most of my other tools are older Milwaukee. I haven’t bought a battery powered saw sence I’m retired now. Have a great day

In the 80s we had chainsaw, skilsaw, bags (hand tools), framing nailer (hitachi), compressor (gas powered wheelbarrow)...and palm nailer came bit later.......production work not custom We used story poles for windows sometimes and pre cut all our parts..... Things have come along ways
