Curious what mobile installers carry in there bags.
Some of the goodies we keep are Knifless tape, 3M air release tool, Roller Pro, Numerous squeegees (GeekSquad, 3M, Mactac soft), tapes, xacto knives, heat gun, Magnets and loads of other stuff.
Pretty much everything so when we go out on a job we are backed up.
What do you carry in your bag?

And you blokes are so funny, too. All this talk, not even 15 minutes ago about not making a sign under $5,000 and then you go on to say you carry around a $15 tote bag filled with little toys as your backup.

What a trip you inselaffens are....... :ROFLMAO:
