I used to bring my own tools because i liked working with non-shit-tier equipment.

Then the CEO found out that i was bringing my own tools.

So the CEO ordered they buy a good set so i would stop doing that, and told me not to buy things for work on my own dime.

One thing i did decide to keep on-site of my own though was my network cable tester. It's so much better than what got bought for the department. It's a Fluke Networks CIQ-100 Cable Tester, and no i did not pay anywhere close to the insane prices they run now.

you can, but you're going to need a much better toner than that. Something more like this:

What he's saying is that even after you make the cable, you have no way of knowing if it meets the Cat6 spec without an expensive cable qualifier. That's how the IT guys make and verify Cat6 cable.

If you need the cable to be Cat6, either buy pre-terminated cable or buy a cable qualification tester.
