Toolbox Guide

[Bromd123]

Right!
I've just been given a shed load (litterally) of hand tools from my uncle, i have about 12 toolboxes full of hand tools.

i have sepperated out all the pyro gear and swa stuff what i want to do is put a general toolbox together, ive got a 36" stanley toolbox for the job but need to know what to put in it. What I am looking for is one box that will handle the most jobs so that i don't have to lug 2 or 3 about at once

Thanks in advance

It depends on the type of work you carryou
If it is comerial/ industrial
set of insuklated screwdrivers
side cutter
plyers
2 sets of grips
square
hacksaw
claw hammer
tape measure
sds chuck
pencil/ marker pen
spirit level
Pad saw
mains tester
multi meter

if you are going to be doing house bashing I would include

Bolster
club hammer
floorboard saw (circular saw)

volt sticks are useful but remembger they can break and use them with caustion

other than this you will need drills etc

basically it is a case of trial and error

I keep the abovr in the van, but usually just walk in with the basic "Knife, fork and spoon"

I'm affraid it comes down to experience
