Long time viewer first time buyer?

So Im a welder looking for a new pair of boots. Ive been watching Carl Murawski, Wranglerstar, and Rose Anvil for a while. Im coming from throrogood wedge soles and looking at a custom fire sole super duty from JK. How do similar options from Nick's, Whites, Wesco, etc... compare? First pair of PNW boots and im really excited just not entirely sure where to start. I hear JK have the easiest break in. How comfortable are they compared to wedge soles? The wedges are great for shop work but they melt and theyre not cutting in the field. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!

Packouts Vs Traditional Job Boxes

Hey, Everyone! I just graduated. Ive decided im gonna be a welder. Really good in highschool. Won a few competitions, worked on a bunch of projects. Passionate about it and looking for some advice. For single hand welders, what do yall prefer: Packouts or traditional job boxes/gang boxes? Ive got a few packouts for personal use little jobs all kinds of work. But on a real job site, what functions better?

New Printer

Looking for a New printer. Had a base model Ender 3 a few years ago. Went blue screen and couldn't fix it. Heard good things about the Bambu Labs A1? Getting into the Milwaukee packout system and wanna build custom inserts for them.

Want the grinder. First M18 tool. Should I get the 2nd free grinder with it then return it and buy the Half inch Impact? Is that doable? Or wait for a different/better deal?
