ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area Tools required as an apprentice

I cannot stress this enough.

Do not, and I repeat, do not bring any tools that require electricity to work with you. Those are supplied by the contractor. You would be in for a world of harrasment and a horrible way to start off your apprenticeship. Most of the guys I work with could care less, but there as some very radical JW's out there that aren't very forgiving.


For your first day of work you would be better off bringing your basic handtools that you listed and feel the scope of the work out. Your co-workers can give you a better idea on what you will need for that job in the future.

Hope this information helps you.
