Thank you. I had someone come to do work on my home as I am getting older and I can't do what I used to do. Sadly they helped themselves to some of my tools , and my cousin who was a journeyman plumber was so kind to give me some of his Plumbing tools. This person took most of those tools so you have given me additional items that I forgot I need to replace , since I live in a 1940 ranch home that is constantly needing work. I appreciate your videos they have helped me immensely when you get older sometimes you need to be reminded of the steps you need to take when doing repairs, not as sharp as I used to be😂

Thank you, don't forget to like and share 😇

When I started I had my Douglas pump pliers,6 way screwdriver, needle nose pliers,victorinox pocket knife I'm a service plumber

I’ve had my mini Lennox harp saw since the beginning. Great for trimming flange bolts. I completely agree with your list.

When I started plumbing in 1985 all you needed was a pair of work boots, tape measure, and channel locks because most of the time was spent working a shovel digging trenches!

Love your videos. As a journeyman plumber myself. It motivates me to go to work and try all the tricks from your videos👍

One tool that I recommend for any plumber now is the Milwaukee automatic cutter it cuts from 1/2"-1" copper and it saves you a lot of time.

Excellent point. It's an essential tool.

I had a semi emergency with a shut off valve that needed to be replaced to get the water turned back on. Mr. Khan was very responsive and honest about if he would be able to get to my house to do the job as he was already engaged. He kept in touch and was able to come in the evening and fix the valve. He replaced the valve in about 10 minutes, and was a huge help. Would definitely recommend.

I love this channel. I'm a starting apprentice plumber.. I might do steam fitting though

Steam is nice, thanks for the compliment ;)

I still use a plumb,a mason line,basic set of chisels,hacksaw,handsaw,.It all depends your specific job.I know plumbers,who are salesmen for big companies,so this differ vastly.

Excellent video. Just a point about the cutter blade. Often the end of the cutter will have a slot to assist in snapping off the blade. It's much safer than the method that you adopted (where the blade piece could fly off and hit someone). Also I never recommend that someone cuts toward their stomach - too much risk of a slippage and...well, you know. Minor points to a video that I would show to anyone just starting out!

Cool video my friend. Always looking forward to the next one 👍

As usual, very good video aimed at you primarily target level. As a teenager I played the role of a plumber’s helper. They call that position these days “plumber’s apprentice”. I never finished that training and ended up joining the military. The knowledge I gained from those years as a plumber’s helper as benefited me many times over the years. I’ll do my own plumbing chores and when required by city ordinance, I’ll hire a plumber to review and sign off on the job. As I said your video are good and I sure many appreciate what you are doing, well djj ok me!
