Default Tool Lists

I would not run out and buy everything on those tools list. Screw that. Get your self a 10 n 1 screwdriver, larger screw driver for prying and driving, wire strippers, level, tin snips, utility knife, hack saw, hammer, channel locks, tape measure. Just get a very basic set. You'll figure out what you really need when you start working.

The more tool lists the more I see what some contractors are trying to pull.
Get apprentices to shell out their own money for stuff the contractor should provide like hand benders and ko punches. All I have to say is not cool.
