I stumbled across this conduit layout tool and it looks like a pretty neat time-saver.

So you stumbled across it, have you had a chance to use it if you bought it? I think it would be nice to have for larger commercial jobs like the hospital i used to work at. I'll put that on my list after the glow rods and security screwdriver.:D

hey at least you have someone else's opinion too.:D

How often do you layout 20-something conduits?

I don't - I'm a telephone guy.

Hey, now GLO-RODs are neat...
Besides PS, ANY tool I find that's cool, I tend to share with others. Face it, man, I'm just a tool ho! But, I prefer tool anthropologist!

I've got a box of crap tools that I've bought - (thinking at the time) "WOW, cool - gotta have it - can't work without it" etc. that of course are just collecting dust now.

The Mayes Squangle (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004YZP6/103-2987052-8165447?v=glance&n=228013) immediately comes to mind. Along with about 200 other tools...

When I was working on the Murray hospital I worked on 3 panel rooms each room had 6 panels and several 1" 3/4" and 1/2" conduit running out. just recently we had to make some sup panels for the heat tape ran under a walkway for a rich guys helicopter pad he is adding at his business. Some people have to much money!

I can also use that tool on large pull boxes.

I could have more unused tools, but i can't afford them so it makes it easier to get what i really want and need when i do have money to spend.

Maybe we all have a little too much money once in a while...


I guess that's why people are dying to try and get here.
