Great for Home Inspectors! [Posted on 2007-06-12]
I am a residential home inspector in the DC area and I've been looking for an "inspector-friendly" tool belt to keep my hands free... this is the real deal!! It feels very light weight, but has big pockets (oh, man does this thing have pockets!! Big ones, little ones, slots for pens, little flashlights, screwdrivers, etc.) I received it within days of ordering and have been using it every day since! Highly recommend it!
Great General Belt [Posted on 2007-10-05]
I was just browsing this evening and check back periodically to make sure this belt is still available (I tend to stockpile some supplies). I just read down through the reviews and thought I should chime in after having used this rig in the field professionally now for five or six years. I believe I'm still on my first one, though it really is due to be replaced soon. I have added a side bag which holds my tape, a good number of putty knives, a chisel, a couple small pry bars, a 7" speed square, and a gob of 16's sinkers. One of the pouches from this rig generally has 8's sinkers and a few other oddball things while the other is loaded with a few screwdrivers, a couple utility knives, pencils, chalk, pencil sharpeners, nail sets, junk. I noticed one comment that the plastic clip may not be durable enough. I did indeed break one, but only in the midst of a tantrum when I threw my fully-loaded belt onto concrete. It had been clipped and unclipped a few thousand times by then. I've never had a problem since. Another fellow commented that the bags tend to slide forward when stooping over. That's true, however I have overcome this by putting the included tape pouch back in between the main pouches as shown in the photo above. I don't use the tape pouch, but it makes a very effective spacer. What I really like about this belt as opposed to framers' rigs is the fact that these pouches don't hang so low. For me, most framers' rigs smack against my thighs all day and really irritate me. I find this rig to be more comfortable, plenty functional for framing, great for all-purpose use, incredibly durable, and dirt-cheap. You really can't go wrong with it.
Indispensable [Posted on 2007-10-22]
I am a diy/weekender. It has the exact amount of room you need. It is hard to get five stars from me for anything. When the belt came to me it was way oversized. I couldn't adjust it to fit small enough, 36/38. I sent it back and the next one was the same. I cut it and stitched it into place. Besides that I love having this belt. It is lightweight compared to leather belts I have tried.
It's not perfect, but... [Posted on 2008-01-07]
It gets the job done. I like the ease in switching around components. Sometimes, I just need to out one of the pouches on a regular belt, and this gives me that option. It's a decent light-duty rig.
Nail bag [Posted on 2008-04-28]
Third one I have purchased (still using first one) just wanted spare. I did put a small bolt through the bags to secure them to the belt.
