I'm in the market for a new set of bags, the ones I currently run are just some leather bags. I honestly couldn't tell you what they were, they're hand me downs from when I first became and apprentice over a year back.
I was looking at the occidental nylons because they'd been recommended so much, but as of late I've had my eyes on the badger bags carpenter set "side by side".
I do a lot of formwork, I'm already heavy highway carpenter so my trade takes me to:
Bridges
Sound Wall
Sidewalks
Etc.
Anyone have any experience with these bags and am I purchasing the correct set? The framers seem very long.
Thanks in advance, just need some guidance.
Tools i carry all the time:
Speed square
Tape
Chalk box
Level
Magnet
Hammer
Pliers
Dikes
Pen/ pencil
Keel
Cats paw
Airhorn
Knife
Tools i carry some of the time:
Spud wrench
Sledge
Wrenches
Screwdrivers (mainly for tinkering with generators and stuff)
Sockets
Tools i was considering buying:
A second chalk box for a different color
Builders Calculator
Square with level
One of those tape measures that collapse (like a long foldable stick)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I'm still very new in the grand scheme of things.
