Be specific in your answer. Although some tool names/uses may vary, your answer should clearly state the names of the tools and can include a very brief summary of your experience using them. You don't need to give a solid 10 minutes of every tool you've ever used - stick to tools that are specifically used by boilermakers.

Elizabeth Engler

"I've found that there are several essential hand tools that I use as a boilermaker almost every day. Precision is key, so I keep a tape measure, engineer's chalk, and level ready at all times. I also find that I utilize a hammer and clamps pretty often, as well, to help with repairs. Other items that I keep nearby are a plumb bob, wedge, and angle grinder. I often work in tight spaces, so I might not keep these tools on my tool belt, but they are easily accessible at all times."
