The BEST Tool Belt! (For Any Trade)
The right tool belt can highly enhance your work experience in whatever trade. Whether you're: a framer, a carpenter, a builder, a roofer, a drywaller, installing siding, concrete, iron, or doing mechanical, electrical, or plumbing; a proper tool belt adds convenience and keeps your necessary tools at reach.
What To Look For
What most people look for is one that would, obviously, hold all of your tools. BUT, what if that tool belt only lasted one month? The kind tool belt you need should also include (no particular order):
- Comfort and a proper fit (you should NOT be constantly be re-adjusting your belt)
- Storage Capacity (as mentioned, can you carry everything you need, plus a little more?)
- Easy Access (can you easily grab tools without having to undo zippers, buckles, and buttons?)
- High quality, durable, tear-resistant material
- Expandability (can you add/remove/customize the belt attachments?)
- Style (does it look sharp?)
Of course, the priority of these six characteristics will differ between the occupation of the wearer. No matter what you do, a tool belt that can provide these qualities will make your day go from difficult to easier because you won't have to lug around as many items. Imagine working and having everything you need around your waist; never having to carry a bag or a toolbox filled with items that should be in your tool belt, and being as hands-free as possible.
Tip To Save Your Time
When it comes to tool belt shopping, bring in your current tool belt or, if you don't own one, your tools, and test them out in the tool belt before purchasing. You may also find what you're looking for faster by doing your research prior and look at photos of the belt you want and seeing if it has compartments and/or add-ons that fit your occupation.
