I hired a new tech and need to get him setup with tools. Any suggestions on the best place on line to buy tools? Butt Set, 66, 110 punch tool, toner, probe, etc.
Thanks Walter

eBay or any of the supply houses. There are some decent kits, Fluke makes them for one.

It also depends on what level of quality of tools you are wanting to buy. Personally, I think Test-um makes reasonably priced items that are ok for novices and professionals alike. They tend to be lighter and smaller than many other heavy duty testers out there.

Pawnshops have a decent supply of telecom tools unfortunately.

Interesting you mention Home Depot, here in my part of Canada they have gotten rid of all the low voltage tools in the last year. Mike Sandman has all sorts of test tools in his online shop.
