My Occidental Leather tool belt one year in. 1817.5 hours worked over 12 months. It fits as well as any glove I’ve ever owned, and is still getting better every work day. I’ve found my setup, riveted things between the suspender loops. I hope it’ll look just as good nine years and 16000 hours from now!

The man himself, Montreal-Sam. A couple of new tattoos since the last time, and my trusted Occidental Leather tool belt.

Is that the 7 bag framer or the pro framer with double outer bag?

Hi there,

It is in fact the pro framer with the double outer bags. I originally wanted the single outer bag, but have since found things to fill the extra pouch. Problem is the more space you have the more you carry!

All geared up and ready to work! Oh yeah, notice the new Occidental suspenders. They let me bend at the waist, something that up until now I have only dreamed of.

Spring feels, or at least felt like it was here. So out come some more of my boots.
Red wing Gentleman Travelers, maybe four years old, no winter wear.

We sometimes forget that water is a main ingredient in concrete. Thought that this mini stalactite was kind of cool. Drips from a Dura-form column.

Seeing red. Today was double time layout Saturday!!! First time in recent memory that François and I had the slab to ourselves and good weather too. 2013 has been pour on the nice weather day and then do the layout in the rain, sleet, snow and gale force wind! Today, we had a dry slab and even a bit of sunshine, doesn’t get much better.
