You saw the bag, you saw the man. That's Eddie Spaghetti, a guy who's been breathing tile dust and perfecting installs for almost 25 years. He's laid more square footage than you've had hot dinners. He knows what works, what doesn't, and what's just dead weight in your tool bag.
We went straight to the source. We asked the legend himself: "Eddie, out of everything Crowne Tools makes, which 5 tools are the absolute, non-negotiable, must-have essentials that every single serious tile installer needs to own right now?"
He didn't even flinch. He gave us the list. These aren't random picks; these are the tools he reaches for on the daily. The ones that save time, frustration, and make the finished job look dialled.
Packed into this bag are Eddie's hand-selected top 5 Crowne "Must-Haves." Here are the 5 game-changers Eddie picked, and why, in his own words:
This isn't just a random collection of tools. This is a toolkit curated by a guy who lives the grind, knows the problems, and demands solutions that work. These are the tools that belong in your arsenal if you're serious about your craft.
Trust Eddie's quarter-century in the trenches. This isn't optional gear. This is the good stuff. The stuff you'll use on every single job.
Making quick, precise adjustments to freshly laid tiles.
Cleaning stubborn grout squeeze-out and thin-set from edges and around clips.
Drilling clean, chip-free holes (35mm/1-3/8") for plumbing or electrical feeds in tile or glass.
Enlarging or beveling existing holes for faucets, pipes, or aesthetic finish (2mm up to 38mm).
Smoothing and refining cut edges on tile, stone, or slabs by hand or with a grinder.
Bringing a polished shine to cut or ground edges and surfaces.
Detailing corners and tight spots where larger tools can't reach effectively.
Performing finishing touches that elevate the overall quality of the install.
