Great stuff, just subscribed to your channel! Thanks

[@Mack_Dingo]

I like how you put the 'Skil' foam in it's place😂

[@davidpollock4703]

First time watching. Great channel. Will binge it now !!

[@Gladius7]

WOW I had no idea there where so many tool brands. Bloody amazing. Subed

[@adamw2307]

Did u see anything to stop tool theft from vans there at the show??

[@mattbland9676]

This is the type of show we need in the UK! I love the diverse mix of national vs independent manufacturing.

[@ranterbul]

In the States, we only have these shows for tradesmen. I think they would be very popular if they opened them up to the public.

[@benbubear8046]

Tough Built might be my new favourite brand, the prices are so affordable for the average tradesman and the quality is unreal! Love it!

[@cerealkiller4248]

I’ve always skimmed past them before when I’ve seen them in B&Q, perhaps they’re worth further consideration. 2/3 years ago I found a Homebase own brand flathead driver, probably about 10mm. I used it for something ( chisel, podger or the like ) at the time to protect my expensive Klein driver. Afterwards I found a vertical slot on the outside of my tool bag and mindlessly put it in. I’m a self confessed tool snob, but damn, that driver is by far my most used tool………………. 😂😂😂

[@wyattskelton5481]

Cool tool finds.

[@pattheplumber100]

2:25 I have this spanner but it is made by crescent tools and you can get a socket adapter for 1/4 " screwdriver bits and 1/4" & 3/8 socket adapter. Did try and upload a Picture( but the app doesn't support it ) and the guy at work gave me the different adapters from another make, oh maybe that was Sata tools

[@EdsETV]

Trade shows in Germany are always amazing. Loved the Sata socket set with the through ratchet design. Just brilliant

[@dreckers1966]

Thanks!

[@ShadowFoam]

No, thank you! What was your favourite tool in this video?

[@lipzc]

Love the idea of the lads from Hammerstroke giving tradesmen a way to realise the ideas they have probably had for years

[@hammerslaget]

thanks! We love it too!

[@NorwegianCarpenter]

The folding ruler is very popular in the nordic countries, in Norway we use it almost exclusively except for longer measurements above 2 meters.

[@AlexKall]

Yeah, he really wanted to promote his tape measure 😂

[@hendrix6]

Meanwhile at the Hultafors booth 23:52

[@oscarlau6353]

Same in Denmark

[@tonybedford3429]

Autoloader looks brilliant, can’t believe that was invented years ago and no big company hasn’t bought into it. Mark seems a very decent bloke tbf

[@mikamurco]

I bought an autoloader from Festool in 2009 and it still works fine. There is a text on the handle "MADE IN CANADA - U.S. AND FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING." I have one for Torx bits and one for Hex bits, very handy. Next time I'd like to go to the Eissenwarenmesser, didn't know it existed ...

[@ookulelewess]

yes, it's been out a while. I've had one like 15 years or so. Everyone loves to "borrow" it and I have to go find it. Bought a second one to hide so I didn't have to waste time finding the first one all the time! hehe... but it is handy, you don't lose the bits, and you can pull them out to swap a different one into the rotation. 8^)

[@inappropriatelaugh]

My 8 year old and I are now obsessed with these trade show videos. Just some great stuff coming out.

[@HerselLawson]

I really like the Tough Built line so far. They seem to keep coming up with new ways to make tools more functional at a reasonable price point. Love the Shadow Foam too!!

[@AndrewFrancisFreeman]

I love how the guy selling the 600 euro trowel didn't flinch when you said it was expensive and he just said "Yes" lol

[@ShadowFoam]

😂 wasn;t much I could say to that really

That little foam chat at 12:48 was really interesting. I was never sure of the differences between your product and everything else, but your explanation was very insightful.

[@ShadowFoam]

Hi James, I am very glad to hear you say that! I don;t usually bring it up in the videos often because I know not everyone is as interested in foam as I am but I am glad it has resonated with you mate!

[@Nermash]

I would have to say that BMI level/tape measure is the most innovative tool IMHO

[@bimble7240]

I got one of these 4 years ago at the Sandown park show. It doesn't get used very often but useful putting up shelves, mirrors and pictures if I don't have a long level to hand.

[@chrisperry7963]

That Sata ratchet is pretty nifty. A great tour and rundown, lots of fun stuff!

[@ShadowFoam]

Thanks Chris! 👌

[@Gavin.Smooth]

SATA Tools are a secret gem of the tool world. I do precision machining of arms and tools of the trade for some American agencies and use SATA quite often for assembly. Solid tools. This is the first episode I’ve seen of your show. I like it. A new subscriber and looking forwards to future content.

[@johnhanson3000]

It'1s great fun watching someone who really enjoys tools. Not old tools but new and exciting innovative tools. Keep the videos coming and well done.

[@MrCarrera28]

Respect for the way your were so friendly and polite even after seeing so many different salesman and not getting snippy or rude despite I suspect getting quite tired.

[@KevinLee-ww3ny]

Love the Skil screwdriver and the and the Sata kit.

[@deancrow7359]

It’s great to see trade people’s ideas for innovative solutions like the cork warmer. Would love to see more from the small guy. Dean from New Zealand

[@quimteaser]

That SATA passthrough looks nice, can't find it on Amazon UK at the moment but will keep an eye out for it in the future

[@michaelwilson3844]

Hi maybe I can help , I like you searched Amazon in comes under a different name , type in Crescent CPTAW8 11 piece3-in-1 X6 Pass -Thru £31.44 they also have a bigger set 25 piece CX6PT25 for ££53.06 hope this helps and for anyone else who is interested.

[@joshuagraham2163]

I believe Crescent has the wrench with pass through sockets as well

[@simonking6983]

Love the blade sharpener. Having all the differing angles self contained is awesome!

[@ookulelewess]

I wonder if it has a chart inside or inside the lid/flap that indicates what things might have what angles.. or do you just line the edge up with each and find a match? Nice to have choices to get the proper angle!

[@TheCowPastureGarage]

It's 11:00 pm (in Australia) and I've discovered this channel. What a tool fair! Some obscure brands I've never heard of that are really the best of the best tools. Tomorrow's going to be a long day watching your videos.

[@MrPhil1965]

Hi, I have to say that the margin marker is my favourite tool. It maybe a simple thing, but it is amazing how many people notice the exacting margins I have around my door frames,and this will make my life easier having this, amongst all the other freebies.

[@ErmIDK19]

That Stanley knife/scraper is the greatest invention I've ever seen ! . That would be so handy in my line of work .

[@ShadowFoam]

Definitely a top tool pickup!

[@Bawdsey64]

I was selling the Autoloader probably 12 maybe 15 years ago, they were supplied by Festool when I was a Festool reseller here in the UK. A great product, they are so good that my daughter and my wife each have their own one in their tool kits. Remember the ladies in your life need a tool kit! Trade shows like the one in Germany are hard work, yes they can be enjoyable. The hardest show I ever did, working the booth and also going around the halls was the AAW Show in Atlanta Georgia in 2010, which was a four-day show. With the big shows you need at least two days to go around and then a third day to revisit the important booths if you need to tie down business. For me, the SATA wrench with socket set made a lot of sense but my daughter would go for the Lego set.😊

[@callumfishercom]

as someone just starting out getting a arsenal of tools together i really enjoyed seeing all these tools!

[@davewaites2414]

Love the post mate, I normally won’t watch an hour long video but you proved me wrong. Absolutely loved it and didn’t want it to end. Thanks for all your passion. Ps Them Sata sockets look Unbelievable for the price, i can’t comprehend how they can actually make a profit on them for less than £30 …….Keep it up Fella.👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️

[@GrahamClarkson]

Thanks for the enthusiastic way you present the innovative finds. The white zollstock rulers are like gold dust.

[@Rrevo]

Thanks so much for a look into the show. I'm always interested in how the smaller innovations get into our hands!

[@AG-cg7lk]

That BMI guy definitely knew what BMI stands for. All bought and paid for.

[@MarcoParlanti]

Sata tool and the toughbuilt scraper were absolutely my favourites

[@handsmcneil]

The thing I really liked about the BMI booth is while theyre trying some new stuff.. trying to innovate.. theyre also doing traditional things which I think is cool. And while not every idea is a good idea you still learn something.

[@ShadowFoam]

I agree, i like the mix of innovation and tradition, you get the best tools that way!

[@tomjohns8498]

Next year you could have a shadow foam road trip and get supports in show reviews, Being a successful company adding unique useful tools sounds a match in heaven 😀 😊

[@taylorberesford4275]

The skil screwdriver is cool, what a handy little idea have the volt stick on it.

[@steadicamant]

Watching these videos is basically a gateway drug for buying more tools. Just ordered the SATA spanner. I have used shadow foam on loads of my tools. Hopefully they do kits for Peli cases in the near future.

[@robz1878]

Where did you order from? I'm struggling to find it.

[@steadicamant]

Amazon

[@steadicamant]

Also lidl or aldi did the same tool rebadged as there own for £20 so I bought a second one. Exact same tool not a clone.

[@dazzafun]

Love the screwdriver quick swap idea, looked much easier than anything I have had in the past.

[@johnm.withersiv4352]

Quirky Tools: I recently bought a vintage push screw driver. It's basically a manual power screw driver that does not spark. I was excited about it. As soon as it came in my 12 year old daughter snagged it for her own tool box. Now I need to find another vintage one.

[@Ecdtheow82]

Loved the Getta tools screwdriver and Mark seemed like a really decent chap.

[@RhysTallentire-kj4rc]

Great video! Love the Lego pliers. I’ve always thought tapes could be smaller, good to see someone has eventually sorted it.

Its fantastic to see what other countries have to offer. Language barrier does not seem to be a problem in this sector of the market.

[@AG-cg7lk]

Passthrough sockets are such a good and simple idea. All sockets and ratchets should be designed that way. No more issues with sockets that are too short.

[@-Nobody-1]

Pass throughs are less practical in reality though. Difficult to extend, bulkier and cumbersome, and limited socket choice. They really aren’t as great at they seem when out into practical applications.

[@johnweir2460]

Thanks for sharing your experiences at the Fair and bringing us another entertaining and informative video. Looking forward to you visiting the Fair next year on an extended trip to explore the products from the smaller manufactures. My favourites from the were: - Margin Marker, - SKIL Electric Screwdriver (volt sensing great idea), - Sata Universal Driver, - Autoloader 6-in-1 Multibit Screwdriver - interested in purchasing a couple of these, - Magnum Easy Grip Pliers - Proclick Pouch - I'll investigate this line to replace my Toughbuilt "Cliptech" belt and pouches as the suspenders supplied will not connect to the belt, even after communicating with the product manager in the USA they were unable to sort out replacements. Bolton Tool Fair was enjoyable and picked up a few bargains. Keep making this great content. Please enter my name in the draw.

[@syn4057]

Sata tools have been around on Amazon in the US, for a while. That type of spline looking socket is made by by many brands, now. I haven’t bought into them yet, but the pass through is get more and more desirable to me. Looking up the Sata crescent wrench. Sometimes it’s nice to travel with only a few tools to get a lot of jobs done. ToughBuilt looks nice. Another tool manufacturer I’ll look up. Still up in the air about the stacking boxes. I carry a canvas tool bag. My drill bit box, 2 cordless, 4 batteries, set of box ends, tape measure, level, bit set boxed, and a standard socket set and ratchet. Covers every thing I need. No one makes a box 5 inches high, it’s all 6+ inches and will not fit under my truck seat. Width and depth on the systems are good, but all are to tall. My canvas bag stuffs under nicely.

GREAT AND WONDERFUL TOOLS THANKS FOR KEEPING ME UP TO SPEED AND NOT HAVING TO GO THERE SYDNEY A LONG WAY AWAY

[@djohnson9857]

Pico do an excellent tape measure with a window on the top and a hole at the hook. You fold out a little pin on the base, put a pencil in the hole, pull the tape until the desired length is displayed in the window, and then you can spin a perfect radius. I use it much more than I thought i would.

Pass through sockets are non-existent in the part of the world where I'm currently working. Super innovative set and well thought through design. Great segment, I really enjoyed learning about the various innovations from the trade show. Thank you
