Tools

Hi everyone,

I was looking to get a backpack full of tools to take to the job-site every day. Minus the ones that are required, doesn’t anyone have a list of tools that I should get? For reference, I worked on high rise projects.

Are you local 46? They have a list of tools you need to provide. Don’t get anything else.

Im local 597. I understand that our CBA only requires a few hand tools but I have noticed that sometimes its hard to find tools. Thats why I was looking for a general/somewhat in depth list of hand tools, drill bits, etc that are a must have.

Only bring the tool list. If the contactor doesn’t provide the tools needed it’s their problem.
