Detailed Tool Box Tour

In this video I will be giving a detailed tour of mostly all the tools in my welding bed toolboxes. I am intrigued by how many tools I actually carry on my welding rig. Yet there are so many more I could stand to invest in. Yet I have got by for 17 plus years with most of the tools you will see today. I hope you enjoy the video!

My tool boxes were sacred unto me . I was the only one that was allow to pack them . Helpers loved it they only had to put stuff on the back of the deck . I put them away, more work for me but I did not have to deal of not knowing exactly where the tools were. When a guy was in the ditch I could tell people close by the truck where any tools were every time . One does not while working need the added stress of having to look for tools, especially when welding up a tough Tie In . In Canada top loading tool boxes were never seen in this country because of snow and Ice possibilities making life more difficult . As a trades men looking after your tools that make you your money is very important . If you have the room redundancy makes life easy too.

[@Chevroletcelebrity]

just your tools are sacred to you? what about jesus? 🥹

[@richardgibson4757]

Im a older fella,bout to go back into mechanics/welding and i used this video to brush up on tool names and a basic idea of toolbox layout,everyone has their own way and videos like that are helpful in many ways to a diverse range of ppl..

[@MichaelSmith-bn1lu]

Where u at? Can u stick weld

[@rafaelherrera8985]

Very nice truck you get everything

[@918kickinwing]

Good to see your videos in my suggestions

[@wesleydirks4887]

Thanks for the vid, always enjoy the rig tours.

[@wargamingsupernoob]

You wanna talk random tools Austin.... I bought a 250 piece set of .251-.500" gauge pins over Christmas because of Adam Savage from Mythbusters. Bought 2 pipe wraps for work. Used the small Flange Wizard building handrails and to fix a screwed up saw cut on a stainless hopper I had to make. My mentor is the only person to use the large wrap for 1 job... about 7 months ago too... I originally bought it because someone in our office didnt know the limits of our saws. Me and another guy had to hand cut the rest of the 20" pipe with an angle grinder, a tape measure and painters tape... Bought a TIG Finger after welding school because my instructor used one and I loved it. Used it a couple times at work and handed it to my mentor just this past Monday for a hardfacing job he's doing right now if he needed it. Then.... Theres all the rods I bought... for the house.... 7010A1s, 6013s, 6010s, 6011s, 7014s, 7024s, 7018s, and Wearshield ME Hardfacing rods. I'm "the guy that has a couple very specific tools for 1 specific thing" at work and the person that does the basic farm repairs at home.

[@johnw.peterson4311]

Great video Austin. Good information.

[@branchharper9287]

Enjoyed the longer format video! Awesome set up! I always enjoy seeing how folks have their shops/toolboxes set up!

[@jford1son]

I personally like seeing the tools that you carry and hearing about the frequency that you use each one. I also like seeing the little brackets and trays that you make to store them (so I can use your ideas 😊). It would also be nice to hear your professional opinion on the tools of the trade. Keep up the good work.

[@rickpierson2458]

I bought an Earthquake post hole auger with a 10" bit about 7 years ago and it is very handy. Not something I would want to use all day everyday, but the occasional hole it beats going and getting a skidsteer or hooking a post hole digger to my tractor. A few months ago I had 4 hitching posts to build around a horse arena, I took it, dug 8 holes for hitching posts and built them (out of wood) and was gone in 1/2 a day. It is also easy to put on the 4 wheeler and get into places that taking a tractor to would be difficult. But if I am building alot of fence, wood posts or steel pipe, I will hook up my Shaver hydraulic post driver and drive them in, very fast an very solid.

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Thanks for sharing Austin, going to look for those drill bits you showed us. Fred.

[@zenabu80]

One thing I started using for templates is shower pan liner. Its a rubber kind of mat. You can get it at home depot or lowes. It's pretty cheap. It does stretch slightly if you pull hard on it so you have to be carefull not to pull hard on it. But it is supper durable.

[@derekbryant6137]

I'm going to have to pause this cuz I just realized I'm going to need some coffee for this one a 1-hour Austin Ross special definitely must have coffee

[@jakemccann2790]

Cutting back on coffee is a great idea , I've done it as well . That split in your bottom lip that we see in some of your videos could be from dehydration caused by too much caffeine and not enough water . Any small changes now can make a big difference in our health for the long game .

[@6pekXX]

I think the three peaces for the chuck are called jaws, but i might be wrong. Wanderful video sir!

[@josephreinsch143]

Very interesting!! I appreciate it

[@joestone7524]

Awesome video! Love the Altoid box, I think I have used and seen them used in every industry I have been in.

[@juliant3871]

Whattup Mr. Ross. Just wanna say i appreciate your vids, they help & inspire. Im going to start welding soon, already have everything i need. Just want to let you know, ill be picking your channels' brain & want to thank you in advance for that. Have a great welding/ off day. 🤙🇺🇸

[@arosswelding]

Pleasure is all ours!

[@l0n3d4nger4]

They have some pretty cool one man augers on wheels

[@designfabrication512]

Do you have a detailed video of all of your flatbed attachments like your chop saw rack, winch boom, vise holder, etc? Looks like you have a very well thought out rig my man

[@veritasdesigns5067]

I got welders flash because my helmet got stolen off the job. And the replacement one didn’t auto darken its a level ten. Blurry vision sucks.

[@zenabu80]

For my next welder, I was thinking about trying a lincoln maverick. The functionality of it seems good and its probably the cheapest diesel welder I have seen new.

[@microadct74]

great video.

[@ridinrocks]

You should check out yeswelder the ct2050 has a built in compressor to run the plasma cutter function runs 6010 7018 and tig ac/dc

[@johnpope4464]

You carry a lot of the same tools I do, even though I'm not a pipe liner

[@morecorners]

There would be real value in hearing a review of various welder options for small shops or mobile welding.

[@ericarachel55]

great presentation, thanks

[@davezorn]

How’s the wife - started watching you guys because of her and your guys rving

[@LynnHarris18]

Austin: Great overall video. Enjoyed the break from watching puddles all the time. One thing I would mention would be a good set of tap and dies. Hardly use them but when needed it sure is handy to have with you. Also ….. you sound a lot like me. I hate to borrow tools. In fact I refuse to. If I need something for a job or in the shop I’ll go buy it. May not need it again for a year, but if I do I have it there ready to go. Keep up the good work and videos. Look forward to them every Friday. Thanks, Lynn @ OKC, OK.

[@tristanerion9552]

The sand behind skid loaders are Awsome but there almost the same price as a regular size skid

[@jacobdillon2338]

Very good video

[@ridinrocks]

Its awesome

[@jaythemachine3845]

Do you have any videos explaining different welding machines and what is best for that certain machine??. I just got accepted into a union apprenticeship program and over the years of my schooling I’ll be building my rig. I’m lost on what the different machines do and which is best for what. Anything helps at the moment.

[@user-cz5be3cf9n]

Mikita makes a battery powered auger that has an automatic clutch, a reverse, and works better that a Little Beaver gasoline powered auger a 50 year plus fence builder friend of mine tells me that after using it, he sold his Little Beaver.

[@robertsanders8866]

Great video

[@arosswelding]

Thanks!

[@zenabu80]

We are landing a pretty decent size job. After which we may buy a skid loader. Also I am thinking about a new machine. I'm thinking of going with a lincoln maverick or a 400x pipe. I'm not sure which way to go. Any thoughts from the community?

[@marioserra4383]

Amaizing toolboxes, how much do you have inside them?

[@gettinbentfabrication9137]

Where did you get that soapstone holder to mark circles ?

[@BxCornw]

Hey austin, how would you feel if you saw a welder roll up on a jobsite with an old syncrowave and gas generator instead of a hotrodded kubota/miller or lincoln sae? Does this guy have a chance since he doesnt have the "right" machine?

[@itsnotlevel2]

Hey bud, I have been contemplating using quick connects for a few years now, but I also know how airline quick connects leak a lot. Now I realize they're not the same and I have never used the quick connect for oxyacetylene, but could you go over maybe what you have to deal with or whether they're good or what brand is good or something of that nature, I would love to hear something on that from .

[@almostretired67]

Austin, those are called chuck jaws.

[@arosswelding]

Thanks!

[@botsbass842]

Hey austin, I have the opportunity to buy a classic 1 Lincoln with a perkins diesel swap in it, An ocv adjustment box, a cv box for a suitcase, and the copper wiring for about 6500-7000, worth it??

[@seanramm3150]

I have thought about buying a lincoln outback for fence and small jobs to go on the back of a utv don't no if that's helpful but if anybody has used one let me know if its any good

[@glenngosline3303]

Bull pin

[@ScottYdo]

Auto helmets are BS! Better to start with old style standard helmets. Learn to use them properly and take care of them before you start using auto helmets. Know your lenses and how to replace and take care of them! Start at the beginning. Had a new guy walk in the shop acting like a pro. Had all the fancy crap with him. He spent all kinds of time replacing a bumper on a commercial trailer. It went out the door and the bumper fell off.! All I could think was WTF! Then I couldn’t help myself! YOU ARE FIRED!! GTFO!! Dumb Asses! New guys are now required to do 4 coupons before they are allowed to bring in their tool boxes. Thanks for sharing your your videos with us AROSS. You are top notch! You are the inspiration. I hope these young guys are paying attention! You can’t learn to weld PROPERLY over night. 👍👍🎯

Takes three years here to be a certified journeyman . That is just the start then another 5 years to become a tradesmen 8 years . Doctors 8 years? And they look down on tradesman
