Another highly recommended tool company is Lenox. They make a wide variety of cutting tools as well as the blades to go with them. From sawzall blades to hacksaw blades to hole saws, hacksaws, mini hacksaws etc; I don’t get paid to to recommend Lenox, I use their products because they work! It’s that simple.
Tubing Cutters – Bobs Recommended Tools
What can I say, another winner from Ridgid. Their tubing cutters are the best in the industry bare none. Now you may not want to invest in one at the moment but when you’re ready, there’s no other choice!
Leatherman Tool – Bobs Recommended Tools
You know that American Express saying ” Don’t leave home without it!”? Well I don’t leave home without my Leatherman super tool. This thing saves me countless trips in and out of the truck and it’s on my belt at all times. I’ve got them in my car, my home, all over. Can’t get enough of my Leatherman tools.
Basin Wrench – Bobs Recommended Tools
Ridgid is the tool of choice when it comes to the plumbing trade. I’ve used this brand since I was a kid, and if you’re in the market for a basin wrench or any other type of pipe wrench look no further than Ridgid. I personally own several of their adjustable height basin wrenches, but if you’re on a budget you might consider a fixed height model.
Nipple Extractors – Bobs Recommended Tools
The best nipple extractor I have found so far.
I discovered Walton nipple extractors through an ad in one of my trade magazines. Prior to Walton I used whatever I could get from my local supplier. These babies bite into the broken piece and cleanly remove it without damaging the fitting. When your ready to dive in, check them out!
