Top 10 tools you always use

[rpm]

yep you can if you dont have duct tape use cable ties and carrier bags

You`ve probably just given 20,000 Yorkshire plumbers heart attacks with that post, carrier bags cost 5p each now.

i think most of you already have 3 arm just for it.

Not sure if 3 arms would be all that helpful really. Four would be better, so you'd have two matching pairs....

You only need 5 tools

Grips
Spanner
Big hammer
Duct tape
Blow lamp

That's it

Only 4 nowadays with all the pushfit going in on new builds.. RIP blowtorch..

Top tools for me

Pencil (behind the ear) Pen in the pocket
Tape (clipped to pants or pocket)
Knife (clipped to pocket)
Phone (in the pocket)
Voltage pen (in the pocket)

No need for any fancy arm carrier

Would be nice to invent a square ring spanner for those newfangled radiator valves that you don't do up with an internal Allen key. Nigh impossible to remove if someone's wound them in with hemp and paste.


At a guess:

1. Pen deburrer.
2. Adjustable spanners - I have some nice ones where the jaw slides down the handle instead of at right angles to it.
3. Steel rule.
4. Water pump pliers.
5. #2 Pozi screwdriver.
6. Torch (the type that you use to see in the dark).
7. Adjustable pipe cutter, Monument type.
8. Pencil and note pad.
9. 15/22 hand bender.
10. Monument type tap 'spanner'.

Thought that's what we have mates or apprentice's for ? Something fixed on your arm cant see it being any good in this trade, loads of tool belts etc. available, even fishing jacket (Body warmer) loads of pockets.

Well that explains a lot about your first couple of posts of which I have to say I didn`t have a clue as to what you were on about.

I don't want to put a downer on it mate, but I wouldn't have thought there is any need for an arm tool holder in our trade. We need to get our arms ( and bodies ) into small spaces, a watch is sometimes a hindrance!!!
