Tool belt supply

It comes in a variety of lengths and tooth configurations. I've used my mm model to undercut door jambs, finish stair stringers, and fine-tune window stools, and it's proved useful for yard work and camping, too. A hard plastic sheath is included, but I prefer to fold the blade into its handle and stash it directly in my pouch.

No matter how careful you are, sometimes a pneumatic nail catches the grain wrong and pops out the side of a window or door jamb. At that point, the best approach usually is to pull the nail through or clip it off below the surface. That's where my pair of 7-inch Channellocks comes in. Their drop-forged jaws and anvil-style cutting edges are perfect for reaching in and grabbing those errant nails to either extract them or snip them off. I've snapped and broken a lot of chalk lines in my career, but this one is my favorite.

I like that it has a very thin braided line, just. And it has a couple of other features that I like: a fast-retracting reel, thanks to a five-gear winding mechanism, and a lock at the end of the box to keep the line secure when not in use. Bevel squares are invaluable for copying or bisecting angles, which makes them invaluable for setting up miter saws to make precise cuts. Inexpensive squares typically have a wing nut at the pivot point for locking the angle in, but that nut often gets in the way, preventing the tool from lying flat, and it's not that easy to tighten.

It has an aluminum stock, a stainless-steel blade, and, best of all, an easy-to-grip thumbscrew located at the end of the stock. No more interfering wing nut. Carpenters' pencils are as easy to come by as they are to lose. There must be a thousand out there with my teeth marks on them. When I discovered this pencil, it replaced all my chewed-on wood ones. It has an integrated pencil sharpener in its sheath far left.

The pencil itself can be fitted with a variety of specialized leads for marking any surface: wet or dry, rough or glossy, oily or dusty, bright or dark.

I use mine all the time—and haven't lost it yet! When installing narrow trim pieces, like base shoe molding and screen bead, making cuts with a miter saw is a tad overkill. These molding snips, with their built-in angle guide, are a great alternative. Where they shine is when I'm running base shoe: I can move from piece to piece, cutting and installing as I go; there's no getting up and going back and forth to the saw.

They're accurate enough for softer, factory-primed moldings. And unlike a miter saw, they don't send little pieces flying when they cut returns. I especially value tools dreamed up by people who work in the trades. Their inventions are often ingenious but straightforward, with hidden uses built into them. California-based general contractor Dave Brallier came up with the idea for this little scribing tool when he needed a no-gap fit along the edges of some expensive paneling.

While a basic compass and pencil are my usual go-to's for scribing, this tool comes out when I need a more precise line than a pencil can provide. Its razor-blade head, with either a plastic or an aluminum body, shines when scribing smooth surfaces, both horizontal and vertical: countertops, baseboards, shelving, you name it. The added benefit? Its built-in magnet makes a great stud finder. While it's not technically a tool, I include this respirator because I often keep it on my tool belt.

I discovered it about five years ago and found its low-profile design to be so lightweight and comfortable or as comfortable as a respirator can be that now I don't wear any other kind.
