I love how this channel is more than just foam really one of the better tool channels out there

[@ShadowFoam]

That really means a lot to hear mate, thank you! 🙏

There’s something about you voice that I could sit and listen to you all day long and still feel like I’m ready to work not sleep like I am with most other people videos.

That Bosch detector is spot on, I’ve used it for easily 5 years and has always been accurate

I have a couple of Bosch power tools: 1 big corded SDS Max rotary hammer (GBH 8-45DV), 2 corded SDS Plus rotary hammer, 1 corded jigsaw, 1 big corded angle grinder (2200W), 1 small corded angle grinder (1400W), 2 cordless drills (18v) and a cordless SDS rotary hammer. all of them are professional an I am very pleased with them. my oldest Bosch power tool is a SDS Plus rotary hammer from 1993 and because I took care of it, I use it to this day

[@ugafan1779]

Beautiful. As a Bosch person, love this layout and setup. Don't get the Bosch hand tools that often here in the U.S. but wish we could. Something really satisfying about seeing the tools go up on the wall! Great video!

[@OLAY1986.]

Id like to see some Ox Tools, I have a few bits from them, levels, square, pencil, folding knife, crowbar type thing, hammer, ratchet screwdriver and it all seems pretty decent. They do tons more stuff too

The hammer shown in 2:05 min. is the most commonly used hammer in Germany called "Deutscher Schlosserhammer" which means German fitter's hammer. Used by every fitter, mechanic or electrician in Germany. Usually in size 300gr. or 500gr.

Good to see a Bosch wall. I am a big Bosch tool user. I believe the vde set is coming out along with some water pilers also they do a digital level / angle finder.

[@AC-oat35]

Just over a year ago, I bought a Crescent CPTAW8 off Amazon, very similar to the SATA. I'm a Maintenance Engineer, and this tool has been used at least once a week since the day it dropped on my doormat! Brilliant bit of kit and versatile too.......

First time here. Love this type os Chanel. A safe place for who loves tools.

Another great review mate, being a Bosch professional tool user myself extra points 👍. Really like the screwdriver set, will definitely be having a look at them. I just bought a set of ratchet ring spanners. Why couldn’t you have made this video a week earlier 😂😂

[@wonkey3733]

Love the channel, especially the way you explain what you are talking about, like the VDE pliers, very handy for beginners, I dont need it as I know everything LOL. I previously bought one of the Sata sets, unfortunately the ratchet fall apart the first time I used it, and it was putting an Ikea table together.

[@ShadowFoam]

Awesome, thank you! I just love talking tools, thanks for your input mate 👌

[@tilkka_]

#2 also takes a lot of signals from sliding on the wall...thought it to be better than it is...but the small drills and 12v tools are amazing. Been using mine for years and been really happy of those. Was expecting you to have a rachet set, but you beat me to it with the #1.

[@Cardetailingburnley]

I am a bosh nut as a result I love the blue shadow foam. I have always wanted more unusual bosh tools

Hi, The foam is rely nice and i think its a great deal (the color Grey would be Great). As an other Panel i would really like to see a toolkit with all Knipex tools and maybe some Wiha screwdrivers these tools are the manly used tools (electrical and installation) hand tools in Germany and there is also an powered vde (1000 v proof) powered screwdriver.

[@lithriandel01]

Those ratcheting spanners look really good. Need to look into them.

[@georgewolff4491]

I did a similar video a few years back, worth searching out 👀

Bosch Powertools 12V are really good. You absolutely need the flexiclick, and the mini angle grinder, and the mini circular saw.... BTW: Bosch has VDE certified tools, f. ex. 14 screw driver kit (1600A02NF9) or 7 part mixed kit (1600A02NG3)

Great video as always! Any planes to do a VDE (Insulated) tool kit video? I’ve got a drawer in my box set aside for this but not too sure what’s good and what’s not.

[@chettiarsirusraj9501]

I'll suggest taking out the batteries out of the Bosch stud finder and the [measuring tape(maybe) incase they have replaceable batteries instead of rechargeable in-built ones to avoid battery drainage and overtime battery terminal corrosion/rust.

[@zeemon9623]

I actually got the handle for recip blades in the green version. It's the exact same thing as far as I can tell except it only comes with one blade. And I got two of those little electric screwdrivers for my company. We do events and we never know who will be handling it which means this thing being weak compared to an 18V cordless drill is actually a good thing. Semi-random people won't be able to easily rip screws apart with it. Besides that I'm already mostly Knipex'd out so no need for the Bosch pliers.

[@E3_Kruger]

Hey jonathan, great video as always! 2 quick things: I'm trying to find the SATA waiting list link, but I don't think it's on the description and I can't find it on your website (on mobile, havent tried desktop yet), so I'd really appreciate a link! I'll 100% be buying a set. I got one of those quickchange screwdrivers from canada you did and I love it! Second thing, have you thought about doing a drawer with draper powertools? I know it's very UK-centric as i've not seen their powertools anywhere but here, but theyre rock solid bits of kit! Cheers from the north!

[@simonrimington3231]

What do you do with thebags/pouches etc that the tools originaly come packaged in? Excellent channel content btw

[@jhales71]

Those spanners are definitely the number 1 spot. So many times a ratcheting spanner just wouldn't work in a small space, these would have been a life saver.

[@ShadowFoam]

I agree, it was a nobrainer to me

[@dagwood1327]

I bought a corded Bosch jigsaw in 1977 when I first went into business. I have favored Bosch tools ever since. When I went to buy cordless I bought the 9.2 v or whatever it was then moved up to 18v when they quit working. I mostly use a drill or impact drive but I thought they were getting older so I switched to Makita because of the tool choices. I have had to buy 4 Makita drills because of broken gear box over the years. Meanwhile the Bosch are still going strong. I am an old cabinet maker so they get a good workout. I looked to buying another drill and Bosch makes an 18v drill driver tool with 4 heads so 4 tools in one. It would look good in shadow foam.

[@ShadowFoam]

It would look great in Shadow Foam! Thanks for letting me know your history with Bosch!

[@AndrejaKostic]

A small correction at 12:50 Yes, it's a Bosch GSR, but that's a bit misleading. In Bosch terminology, GSR just means professional drill-driver, and GSB means professional hammer drill-driver (professional compared to the personal green series, which starts with P, and hammer drill with the little vibration hammer, not the proper elector-pneumatic rotary hammer). The story about attachments you presented is instead called FlexiClick in Bosch terminology, and the tools which use that have an FC suffix, so for example a drill driver with flexliclick would be GSR 12V-35 FC. Once you put the name through the decoder ring, you'd get professional drill-driver, 12 V, 35 Nm torque, with FlexiClick attachments.

[@three-phase562]

That spanner set looks nice and useful. I have the Gedore version of the silent ratcheting screwdriver and really like it. Gedore hand tools would be a good one for a tool wall and they have a good VDE range. BGS is another German tool manufacturer or Draper tools for a British one.

[@ShadowFoam]

Very good choices here mate, appreciate your input! 👍

[@NeuravnoveRS]

the water level doesn't have a dome shape, that would make it way worse, that's a fisheye effect of magnifying glass focused on the center.

thats another good layout video the blue foam suits the Bosch tools , but get to more tool shows i really enjoy your walk rounds hunting the weird and quirky tools. Ive just had a thought after browsing the webite you should offer the choice of mixing the colours in the starter packs, i have dewalt, makita and bosch tools and it would be nice to have the right cooured foam for each set of tools

Bish, bash and Bosch. I have the blade handle, which I rediscovered in my garage from 2012, It is a great item to have. I have the stud finder as well, I purchased it with a mini laser/ level.

That Go screwdriver is a fantastic bit of kit. It's not officially available in the US, so I had to get an import. Unfortunately, mine didn't come in the L-Boxx mini. The recip blade handle also isn't offered over this way. Bosch have released some VDE pliers recently, but I don't know if they're generally available in the UK yet.
