Adam's Everyday Carry in his apron:
Papermate Sharpwriter #2: amzn.to/2xSMaKL
Pica Pen: amzn.to/2TcSep9
Whiteout Pen: amzn.to/2YSrvSg
Small Machinist Square: amzn.to/311GLLq
Flush Cutters: amzn.to/3csoGuY
Dial Calipers: amzn.to/3fGRSk4
Giaco Maker Knife: giaco.com/products/maker-knife
As you might've seen in Adam's recent videos, one of the changes to his shop workflow has come from his use of a utility apron for carrying his essential tools like Pica pen and dial calipers. Adam talks about what changed his mind about wearing a shop apron, what kinds of tools he carries on it, and how it's changed the operating procedures for his builds.

As I find things I want on my person I create a pocket. For instance the machinist square gets a lot of use so it has it's own slot to hold the blade for easy access.

I designed my own apron for everyday work as a woodworker, including a flap that goes over the tool pouches (7 of) to keep dust and crap out, but then also lifts up and stays up via small magnets in the fabric. I went for saddle leather for the straps, thick but pliable and a soft feel without the edges digging in - crossover at the back, with a leather cross strap that comes across the waist at the front I can hang things from, that then goes around to rings and clips I made from thick (3amp) copper wire.

Posting here because comments were turned off on today's live stream. I missed notification about the live stream and turned it on, while you were in the middle telling about dropping a small part, to find a previously dropped part. One trick I use, when I've dropped something small, especially in my kitchen, with the vinyl floor, with it's pattern of blue and gray stones. First, I turn off the overhead lights. Then I turn on a bright flashlight and hold it flat on the floor. I sweep the light in an arc and when you hit the fallen object, you may not see it, but you will definitely see the long shadow it causes.

Let’s not just skip right past those pencils. Those particular pencils, the paper mate sharpwriter, have some special properties that are very important for the maker crowd: 1) cheap and disposable so you can buy a bulk box of them and leave them everywhere. 2) mechanical, so you never have to worry about sharpening them. 3) unlike every other mechanical pencil on the market, they are exactly the same size and shape as a wooden pencil, which means you can stick them into a compass or scribe or any other marking tool designed to hold a standard wooden pencil.

Much like Adam I discovered the joys of always having the primary tools on hand. Mostly because as I wonders the workshop from project to project I would put down something, and then have to hunt around to find it. In looking for a decent commercial solution I found "Fire Hose Bib Work Apron" from a well known company. It's been really nice, I've had mine for 3 or 4 years now and I really like it.The pockets have mesh lining in the bottom which keeps the saw dust from piling up in them (and easy to vacuum out), and there are a ton a places to put tools. And the fabric it's made from is pretty indestructible. On the negative side, I am not in love with the strapping solution. It's could be much better. Also it's like 35$.

The apron is for protection of thighs, typically used by stone masons when carving small pieces, it would be a square of leather 1 1/2 foot square. So a good apron will have that area protected and clear of pockets, to be most useful. They are especially useful in sitting 🪑 work, like wood carving.

I wear a work apron every day at work. I got my straps at Lowe’s. I know I know. But they work amazing. I carry everything in there, and wouldn’t have any other straps than those.

Those diagonal cutters look just like my Harbor Freight ones. I have 2 sacrificial pairs to keep my good Xuron cutters for electronics. Love the apron going to order one now to replace my 40 year old denim one that's falling apart

At this point, there has to be a story as to why he won't refer to it as a MakerKnife?! What is going on!?

Your evolution as a tinkerer is progressing nicely! How far can you be now from a pair of glasses with multiple magnifying lenses attached? (does entirely make sense to have a work-time garment full of always-necessary tools to pull on when you enter a shop, and to protect your other day clothes a little at the same time!)
