Hi all!

Just wondering what tools you take to a job.
I know it sounds obvious but when we go on a job,say a bathroom, we take all our tools, thats tubs,toolbox,buckets wood levels, materials.
When we get there we normally put on a bath board and stick the wet cutter on that ,then the rest of the tools on the landing area, and where ever we can stick the dry cutter.
The thing is its so frustrating,you cant bloody move for stuff in the way.
What a nightmare,im getting really fed up working like this,cant help but treading on this, that,.
I was thinking of taking all the obvious ones,trowels,levels markers etc.,but you can garantee they'll be something ive forgotten.
Dont have a van at the minute,otherwise id leave a lot of the stuff in that,but loading up the car can be a pain all the time when a lot of it dont get used.
How do you all get round this?
I know it sounds a bit silly, but hate working all crammped up not being able to move.
Cheers

I have a ts50 and can fit all essential tools that I will need for a small bathroom in the ts50 case. Other than that and taking the door off, theres not much you can do!
 
I took the door off on the last small bathroom I did. This saved loads of time, especially when I plumbed in the sink right behind it.

Not only did I have to tile it but also plumb it in as well!

As for leaving the wet cutter downstairs. That is a good call. I've got the Belle Mini Tile and I wasn't looking forward to lugging that upstairs. I just kept my wet cuts to a minimum. The only problem I had is when the builders working on the garage conversion needed it moved :lol:.

As has been said, I kept my tools that I wasn't using in an alcove outside the bathroom.

Next week I start the other bathroom, much bigger :grin:
