Could you describe your overall experience with Calidad Tools ?
Mike Eckert: Everybody uh finally getting my hands on the Calidad Pro kit. Um I've been using their Cali Dad Square for a while now and it's great for perfect miters um on insets any 90 degree inside or outside corners. Um Another reason I wanted to go with Cali Dad, I do have tools um uh and you know, I wanna produce the highest quality. So I have all the tools to do the job for my bathroom models and tile installations. But I wanna support a company who has the same values as me. And um I feel like Cali dad is that company. Um you know, they have uh I for high quality stuff. Um They actually care about people. Um And they're genuine down to earth people. So that's what my business model is and I feel the same way about Cali Dad and that's what I wanna support. So um just wanted to jump on here, let people know what I thought about them and uh their tools and uh stay tuned because I'm gonna be showcasing this kit um on my social media and I'll let you guys know how it goes
Which products from Calidad Tools have you chosen and why?
Mike Eckert: Everybody. So the product that I chose and I chose a couple was the uh pro kit uh from Cali Dad. I've been wanting to get this one for a while and it's got all the tools that I need uh to um do high quality work in my bathroom, remodel and tile projects. Um The reason I chose Cali dad is because, you know, I, I feel like they have high quality products. Um And I know that they are super down to earth. Um They genuinely care about people and they want to produce the best possible um installations um from what I see from them. So that's a company that I can get on board with. Um And that I would like to support. I mean, somebody that resonates with me and somebody has the same business model as I do because I genuinely care about my homeowners. Um I want them to have the best that they can have when they invest in a remodeling project, uh bathroom remodel project or a tile installation project. Um And I feel like Cali Dad is the same, you know, they want the best for people and they generally care about people. Um The other product that I'm getting is the uh clip Gang. I wanna try their clips out. Um I do have a leveling system that I use, but I feel like uh this clip system is kind of the same as the one that I use. So I feel like it might be a good fit for me to try that one out and I'm hoping to like that one. Um And then I also have been using the Cali Square, Cali Borough Square for a while now. Um And it's great for perfect miters on insets or any 90 degree corner where you have trim, whether it be metal or pencil. Um So I really like that and yeah, so I'm excited to showcase these products and uh you know, check them out and see what I think about them.
What has been your experience with Calidad products so far?
Mike Eckert: My experience with Cali dad so far has been nothing short but excellent. Um I actually have had the chance to meet um both et and Tyle, bro and they're just uh what I expected honestly, like they're real people, they're down to earth, very genuine caring people. Um So that's the kind of people that I can get behind. Um I, it really resonates with me to meet somebody like that and then they're real just how you um see them online. That's the real them. So, I mean, it's really great and the product that I've had that I or the tool that I had from them was the Cali bro Square. And um I've been making perfect MS with that thing for a long time now and it's an excellent product. So I'm excited to try some of the new stuff that they have. And um that's why I bought the pro kit and I'm doing the uh clip game system. So excited about that and uh I'll let you guys know how it goes.
What other products you'd like to see from Calidad Tools?
Mike Eckert: Uh some of the tools that I um would possibly like to see from Cali dad would be, you know, maybe like a uh profile jig um for miters, uh you know, a profiling tool, uh maybe a uh rail system, a table, something like that, do a lot of large format tiles. So that'd be nice to see something like that from them. Definitely support them in that. Um Right now they have a lot of the tools that I use for shaping, you know, mitering, uh tile installation, they pretty much have everything that you need to get started. Um So, um, maybe something like that uh would be beneficial for people and I definitely support and I'm looking for a uh rail cutter as we speak right now.
