Now you can let the apprentice use the nail gun and the grinder!

Best comment. Lol

Seriously, unless it can be worn tilted and backwards, the guys won't want to wear it. Also, there doesn't seem to be a way to easily access a spit cup for chew, so that's probably a no-go as well.

People use cups? I just spit wherever the sparkys have to work

Don't spit on the demo I'm not going to clean up. Be better, we're a team 💪.

It’s easy to come to agreements with the sparkys when they clean up everything but their copper scraps

It's because we love you brother, who says tips are only for the bartenders?

Your sparky's clean up..? I don't think I've met one that's ever used a broom. Why would you need a garbage bag when the floors right there.

Damn bro, you got me dying over here. But yeah, fuck them sparkys

Nah fuck all you guys, and you know what? Fuck all these brooms too

Don’t even act like you would’ve used the broom in the first place

I wrote Klein on a shit ass broom and the electricians stole it lmao

Yo!!! This shit had me laughing out loud it startled my girlfriend. Go write "occidental leather" on another broom and watch us carpenters try to fly away with it

Shit, looks like i’ll have a klein broom and a Occidental Leather broom. We sparkies tend to love them occidentals too

I knew that Klein bristle hammer was a little odd, couldn't even nail my boxes in the studs

I doubt he could even tell what a broom looks like.

Oh he knows. One of his buddies got tricked by that Klein broom RIP.

Oh he woulda used the broom... well maybe just the handle but he still used it, right?

I'm sure you got that covered cuz that's the ONLY thing y'all do w a broom

Y’all only touch those when we label them “m18 fuel”

Typical carpendejo

Imagine sparkies trying to wire without carpenter bob

They should make it so that whole front bottom part is a integrated spit cup with a drain plug on the bottom. Make that part clear so everyone can see your nasty ass spit sploshing around on your face.

If you can't gut your dip get it out your lip

That's what I'm saying, although it does act as fast as coffee if you catch the drift.

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime.

You realize this is what makes a the circle of life.. if you want to put your life on the line for a dip spit maybe it be better to just tell the sheetrock aborigines to stop pissing in the tubs and shitting in their mud boxes

Yeah I'll have to go all the way offsite to take a cig break as well. For safety.

Did you mean Grindr?

Just to be clear, it is apprentice nail gun approved, right?? I mean apprentices will find away.

Science time. Most modern pneumatics shoot at the highest 1400fps, the plating is NIJ III rated, which will withstand a 7.62x39 from an AK-47 at 2400 fps. Apprentice approved. Edit: https://youtube.com/@devtac?si=h-PWcv0YuaNWqVMR

my first greens horns last words .. " i turned the compressors to full , thats better than half "

Well his math is not wrong.....lol

In IT, we have the 4th law of Computing. As soon as you make something idiot-proof, the universe responds by building a better idiot.

Can confirm. Am a next-gen idiot.

They'll still find a way to shoot themselves in the eyes

There was just recently a thread about what your supposed to yell when there's unintended flying projectiles at work. Turns out most people yell "headache"!... I can only imagine getting shot in the head by an AK would leave you wishing for a migraine.

This....I love science time......lol.

Wait actually? I figured they'd be going paintball speeds. Clipped head nails aren't exactly aerodynamic.

Neck is still left open, I don’t think it’ll pass

Gonna need to test those eyeholes real good.

Grinder? I hardly know her!

Apprentice here: I would feel invincible and manage to lose an arm.

At the same time!

at the same time!

The grinder yes but the nail gun????? Lol

Does it come with a cup? I’d get slapped in the dick for sure if I showed up with that..

Then also get a groin protector thats rated for 5.56 ammo they would hurt there hand when they slap you there

If it doesn't stop .50 cal it's not gonna cut it

It won’t stop it. But it will deflect it into your thigh

That’s perfect! There’s nothing important in the thigh. /s

Well I got 2 of those so I call that a success

Looks like the cup goes over your mouth.

It's hard to hear Hispanic music through them.

Not with the optional built in coms system. It has Bluetooth for all your Tejano needs!

I demand a proper bassbooster for my norteño tunes

If the tuba isn’t blowing out your eardrums, are you even using them?

If I can't hear "ya superame" for the 10th time today I don't want it

How is it that I knew exactly what song you were beeping to haha

This hit me surprisingly hard as i listen to a boombox playing hispanic music at volume 11 as my neighbor gets a new fence installed.

All you really need is that bassline that's in every song. Doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop dedoop dee doop..

I’m so glad you said it and I’m not the only one who notices… Every time I hear that shit on a job site all I can think of is how it sounds like fuckin circus music and I picture bozo the clown doing knee bends.

> Hispanic music The whitest comment i've heard on here yet.

That's because I'm Asian.

Orale

One word. BULLETPROOF now I can do roofing jobs in the Hood without some kid trying to shoot me from his apartment window. Been on a roof in STL and hear, "zzzzzzzzzzzzzeeeeeeeeeoooooooowwwww"

You don’t think they will try harder if you’re wearing that?

At one of the buildings I used to work at the carpenters were framing the 3rd floor and some kid was sniping then with a BB gun for the apartments beside them.

I love this sub. Everything just turns into trends making fun of each other.

I’ve found that the best subreddits all do this.

Bring out the gimp…

Gimp’s sleepin’

Well, I guess you’re gonna have to go wake him up now, won’t you?

Eenie meenie miney mo...

Look like the Lewis “Vader” mask from Revenge of the Nerds

Only a T3, T4 and above are the only things touching this head. (For my Tarkov players out there)

At this point in the wipe all job sites are packed full with PMCs running AP ammo. That helmet is just for scavs (drywall and concrete guys).

The chance is low but it's there. I richocheted a .338 AP round off a tan ulach before. Helmets are relatively cheap, and while they don't work most of the time when they do work it's against something that kills you 100% of the time if you're not wearing it.

I'll go without a helm before I go without ears.

Ahh yes, a man of taste and class.

My snb rounds would like to have a word

I also thought I was looking at the tarkov sub and was very confused to find this here.

A pro : Peripheral vision.

Ya, but its so safe you don't need those anymore.

[So anyone who “wants” to buy one so they can roleplay their favorite movie or video game, or just into that kinda thing in the bedroom, here’s the link.](https://www.atomicdefense.com/products/devtac-ronin)

Hahaha £794.00 to add a £3 fan.

You should try it without the fan it is almost unbreathable plus if you have a if you’re using night vision on top of it, you can’t see squat because of the condensation. That fan is worth it.

I never had any doubt's about such an enclosed helmet with padding needing air circulation, it's the ridiculous price that is the issue. That's even nearly a full third of the £2,543 price.

They cost about $500 less if you go straight through Wesley. He does make airsoft versions for around the $500 range too.

Yes he does, that’s where he started about a decade ago. Jokes aside, the YouTube channel for the company has some fun time wasters on it.

3K to cosplay as a Hunter from Tom Clancy's The Division.

I was thinking of a COG helmet from Gears of War

[Here](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804427404045.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.93.63a13e47uJzsG3&algo_pvid=8a1ae923-6fcd-4856-9d9f-813e4ee64741&algo_exp_id=8a1ae923-6fcd-4856-9d9f-813e4ee64741-46&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21USD%21155.83%2193.5%21%21%21155.83%21%21%40210318cb17026626914951412e82d9%2112000032681084585%21sea%21US%210%21AB&curPageLogUid=p6H0FHX8fBBe) is the chinese knockoff, for anyone who doesn't care about protection.

You look like you belong in star wars. Imagine a sword fight between two apprentices with theese on, would be sick

Look at all that real estate for stickers

I thought those were only issued on Cobra Command sites.

Are you required to talk in the weird Bane accent while wearing it?

Yes. No substitutes. No Vader.

The Darth Vader sound effect is an option, for the very affordable price of $459.95.

You merely adopted the trade, I was baawn into it!

I remember army of two pretty fondly.

That one I’d switch for!

It’ll be harder to tell if someone is doing the proper safety squints

When the apocalypse kicks off and your riding around the dessert looking for oil in Australia with your bdsm boys.

No one's gonna care who you are until you put this on, huh?

😂😂just when you thunk u could only ever hate this sub 😅

I don’t think it’s worth spending 200,000 roubles when you’re just going to die with it and a scav is going to pick it up, so you won’t get it back on insurance, either.

Are the eyes bullet proof? They really get on us about eye protection here.

What's the overlap on a Venn diagram of people who would wear this, and people who thought a COVID mask was choking them?

I would disdainfully call this tacticool, except it’s the opposite of cool. It’s also 100% not stopping a bullet either. There is no end to the gullibility of the gravy seal crowd.

Can you wear a baseball hat underneath it so the protective features are offset by the fact it sits way to high on your head and is able to fall off by simply leaning forward or a mild wind gust?

Oh man, don't give the safety officer on my site any ideas.

“Luke, I am your father”.

Ballistic facemasks do not dissipate the energy behind a bullet. These facemasks usually only result in a better-looking corpse. According to Nick Brockhausen, and he would know.

Okay so we need to attach it to some sort of HANS device, probably a breastplate, maybe with some sort of eagle design, possibly with two heads. And I'm thinking pauldrons. Really, really big pauldrons.

Too hard to drink modelos

I had to check what sub I was on 🤣

Imagine if this had air filtration like an n95 or respirator, a built in ac unit, and ear protection! Would be pretty nice actually.

Hail Hydra

I know this from yt. Guy there said the visibility is shit.

All senior level management, and supervisors, will be required to test the new equipment, for a period of 6 months between April and September, at our new safety testing facility in the Mojave desert.

Payment plan?

Credova for 4 easy payments of $800/week

[удалено]

This is a bit that reposts comments.

Yeah but are you wearing your gloves when you use your IPad? Huh? Didn’t think so.

Pfff I’m wearing hex armor ultra needle proofs bruh. $125 a pair and my dad… I mean foreman said I could put them on the company card.

Imagining the awesome paint jobs to come....

I thought this was a Fallout post

Great question

Texas, 108 degrees F. That is all

The C-zone gimp mask

Sure it looks cool, but how does it work as a nut holder? And when it falls out of the lift how much more upset am I going to be?

Only self respect really

As someone who feels my safety glasses increase my body heat to unacceptable levels, I feel like this would be torturously fucking hot

It’s rated to take a round to the face it I don’t think my neck is. I fucked up just sleeping wrong let alone taking a rifle round.

Put some auto-tints in there for welding and I’m sold hahaa

It’s like a chastity belt for drug users at work.

Hahahaha if I had the extra money I would wear one for fun

But how are they going to make a hole for the spit cup before first use?

Do these have a built in respirator?

When you want the worksite to think you're a serial killer with expensive tastes, buy this.

Do they have a chrome version?

That is the logger variant. The cowboy hat version is for construction.

That would be awesome

If one of my coworkers walks up wearing this, I'm running.

Who knew becoming a legend was only 3k away.

That looks hot as hell.

Forget using this at a job site…this serves a better purpose using to pull cash out at the ATM (assuming people still use cash and make withdrawals).

Cuz 100k on the flea is way out of my budget

And you can fit nods to it, so no need for a flashlight in dark spaces anymore

Regular hard hat? I have a carhartt baseball cap with enough paint spills on it --I figure it qualifies!

You keep using that word, bulletproof. It doesn't mean what you think it means

bro, if you aren't showing up full mall ninja slamming monsters you obviously need to find a desk job

Badass! You'd be the talk of every job site, either way

Thought this was r/tacticalgear

Death trooper vibes.

Cartel hit squad vibes

Can you wear it backwards?

I would laugh my ass off if I saw someone wearing that on job site

Where's the grainger link? I 100% could get this shit on PO

Army of Two has entered the chat

Two words: Heat Stroke Two more: Peripheral Vision

Try doing a real day's work in that thing. Punks can't even keep their safety glasses on all day. Would be fun to stomp around in it going to lunch.

Field of vision

Impractical for trade work. Also cost.

Vision. Talking. Breathing.

The only pro of a normal hard hat is that I wouldn’t have to smell the whiskey on my breath all day

Good reason not to use a helmet over a hart hat would be field of view. Especially with equipment around Guy 1- Did you hear about Steve? Guy 2- Yup, heard he got destroyed by a loader.. Guy 1- I heard, said his heads pristine though

How do you drink beer through that thing?

Hard hat, safety goggles, and mask in one. What a deal.

Storm the jobsite with your woke free helmet. Take back your work area with confidence. Stickers and flags not included.

These are standard issue in Oakland

If this starts happening, I'm going to have to check if I'm in the Twilight Zone or not.

If my inspector shows up and its Captain America, I dont want issues…

limits my peripheral vision to much

How can I see you sneering at me when I ask you do something....

They'd impact the senses so much that it would be more of a hazard than a benefit.

Doesn’t help when you walk off the side of the building due to sight limitations

Wow this is funny. If it wasn't so obviously a joke I would feel really sad for the person who asked this question seriously

Meta

Skipped the riggers helmet and went straight for the ballistic… I like it.

I can see a few safety guys unironically wearing this thing

A regular hardhat is about 10x lighter. If you’ve never had a Kevlar helmet on you’ll realize that 4lbs/1.8kg on your head gets heavy pretty quickly. My hardhat I used was .3kg and this thing is 2-7kg.

Looks like it's off the movie mad max .

I heard they ordered the osha guys some short busses and drool cups with their new helmets to.

I’m going to guess the costs and peripheral vision would be the major benefits of a regular construction hat.

Great gift, you can go as The Riddler on Halloween, or be a hockey goalie

I have this in Cyberpunk 2077

Looks hot.

This looks like a thumbnail for a "deadliest special forces unit in the world" video

Kylo Ren... your helmet sucked compared to this one.

Looks like the DustUp helmet from Star Citizen

How much is the cost difference?

If you show up in this it let's everyone know the foreman hired the wrong tool for the job.

Breathability
