What's on your belt?

[shutterstuff]

I purchased a McGuire-Nicholas 804 about 6 months ago and my screwdriver is already poking through. I am looking at some Custom Leathercraft electricians tool pouches and got to wondering what everyone else likes to use?



I like the convenience of having basic tools with me when I leave the van for removing and installing most locks without having to go back. I think it also speaks "Professional" when you greet a client. You are ready for work!

I'd make a piece, out of sheet metal, to fit in the bottom so the screwdriver doesn't poke through. I like the Klein!

I use a medium EMT pouch, I don't even remember where I get them. Online somewhere

Thanks, I like the metal idea! And I love my Klein tools too. I use a terminal Block screwdriver for Adams Rite set screws and so on. Perfect fit. And the needle nose are great! I have yet to break these but I have bent several pairs of cheaper ones.

Take a look at NiteIze and Rip-Offs. They both make a ton of different pouches.

I have the older version of the Nite Ize Pock-its I have had for years and love it. But too small for what I need. I looked at Ripoffs and did not see anything like what I already have.

If you want a pouch that will resist your screwdriver you will need to step up to leather, that can get expensive

I did look at leather, and they were either too small or too big. Screwdriver and pliers only or full carpenters belt were all I could find. I think the above suggestion about metal will work. I will stop by a friends house this weekend as he said he has something that will work in his shop.

Sorry, I could not resist. I was actually looking for a heavy plumber (plumbers crack...) in suspenders to post and came across this one...

Thats just wrong.....

Anyway....

I Carry a Gerber Multi-tool, Flashight, 2 phones, 2 sets of keys ( one on reel, one on clip), Keedex in old multi-tool holster, Snap-on Racheting screwdriver, Pickset, Pocket screwdriver, Notepad, Pen.....

I usually look like a cop with it all on my belt and filling the pockets of my cargo pants

I love the looks when walking around the secure side of an airport terminal or government building while doing work.

note: my concealed carry sidearm also on me when im working but not in restricted areas like above.
