As a DIYer myself, I met my current Snap On dealer at a brewpub. He was out with his wife, but still wearing a Snap On coat and Snap On hat. I casually asked if he was a dealer and he said "No.." Then he laughed and handed me a business card. I called him on Monday, and the rest is history.

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Doc, I’ve watched more of your videos on my iPad late at night while my wife is trying to sleep than I care to admit. I just showed her this comment and she said “Babe, your Elvis!”, only half joking. I appreciate your note, and thank you for taking the time to comment. I watch all your videos and though they’ve cost me a few bucks, they’ve all been worth it. If you ever find yourself on an over landing trip in upstate New York, I’d love to buy you a beer. Cheers -Peter

@reconbbs360 5 месяцев назад

I remember my first time on the Snap On truck. Dealer was extremely polite and helpful. I was giddy as can be. Ended up purchasing a F80 3/8 drive ratchet and a pair of Duckbill pliers. He gave me a free hat as well. Pretty sure all dealers do that for first time buyers.

@trentwexler6690 5 месяцев назад

Love seeing more avid enthusiasts of the green snap on tools! I got that screw driver set early on in the game and I have no regrets. Whether it be for DIY or for work (I personally use them for both) those tools last you forever. My great grandfather was a contractor and you know what we still have passed down from him? His snap on screw driver and it works just the same as the day he bought it. Awesome video, very engaging and as relatable as it gets, can't wait to see more videos from you!

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Appreciate the kind words, Trent! Having grandpas tools is the best. I just “restored” some of my grandfathers tools (couple videos ago) and it was so rewarding. I showed him the tools last week (he’s nearly 90) and he was completely taken aback. I’m a sucker for nostalgia, but I can’t help it, it was a great experience for us both and I’ll take care of his tools the same way he did for the next 50 years

As a retired heavy diesel tech I have a lot of Snap On tools that I bought over the years. On occasion that I need a tool I still get a hold of the Snap On dealer in my area. Snap On tools are pricey but in my opinion they are the best. Congrats on a great tool haul and a great video..welcome to the addiction. 😂

@ezekielherrera4070 5 месяцев назад

Im only 23 and I’ve been in the industry for for 4 years. I’m so glad that the giddiness is universal, congrats on the Haul. I find myself always looking for different options regarding tools and who I get then by but with the exception of my snap on crowfoot wrenches I can’t say I’ve ever been disappointed. I recently got some of their hard handle tools and actually really enjoy how they feel(carbon scrapers, and 3/8 multi position ratchet)

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Happy to hear! Curious what happened with the crows foot that didn’t meet expectations? The hard handles are beautiful, my 3/4 baby blue ratchet is a favorite for sure

@ezekielherrera4070 5 месяцев назад

@@HeyDerFolks more so that I probably should have saved some scratch and get em from somewhere else, that being said they work and like anything if I break em on a piece of construction equipment I can get em replaced no worries. I’m infatuated with the Power Blue color right now so most of my snap on hand tools are Power blue but they are hard to get some stuff in, been utilizing eBay for some of the stuff that I can’t get in the truck lol.

Your Snap On journey is an interesting one. I have been building a DIY shed that... I think is pretty impressive. All my neighbors say so because I refurbish, restore and repair mostly tools especially antiques. I have a LOT of Harbor Freight and I think I would like to migrate like you.

@HeyDerFolks 2 месяца назад

Restoring old tools is a great time, I’ve got a few Shorts restoring some stuff. I’d like to do more, just need to find it. As for migrating to snap on, do whatever makes you happy! I find them a joy to use and appreciate that I’m building a box of tools that will outlive me, and the folks that use the, someday will hopefully be as proud of them as I am. First two tools I’d recommend to someone getting into snap on would be the ratcheting screwdriver, and the LN47ACF 6” pliers.

@DownHillgamer 5 месяцев назад

Best tools in the world babbby. Ive got a decent "small" collection of snap on tools at my home box now and its just fun to collect and even better to have them when doing basic maintenance to my vehicles and i use the pocket pry bars all day at work, valve covers, front covers, some oil pans with the help of an 8 inch ory bar and they hold up good i even hit them with a 24oz hammer and use them as chisels some times lol

I have a 1/4, 3/8 and long 1/2 locking flex head with green comfort grips. Now I want the regular hard handle in 3/8 and 1/4 non flex head. I did get a set of Cornwell screwdrivers off a truck. They guy was at my work picking up a tool cart he had ordered. Pretty sweet screwdrivers. Green as well

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

@HeyCoolBoxDude 5 месяцев назад

Welcome to the Snap-On addiction. One tool turns into 4 then into foam sets next thing you know you buy a roll cart. Then you realize that roll cart isnt big enough for all your tools so you decide to buy a master series and so on. Your wife not knowing anything about tools sees your addiction and is upset that you spent a boat load and wants to know why snap-on tools are so awesome. so you take her on the snap on truck and then she sees the pink handled ratchets , pink screwdrivers and all the other pink tools. She thinks they are cute. So you tell her snap on caters not only to techs and diyers but to girly girls like her. After all the fuss you end up with a pink epiq full of pink tools. Anyways good tool haul lol

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

🤣 sounds like you’re speaking from experience! I’m in phase 2 of your list, when I pickup a new 3/8 socket set next Friday the foam is a likely contender…

I am just a DIY myself and I like high-end tools. I watch the monthly truck sales catalog RU-vid videos. When I see things I want and ON SALE I text my local Snaop-on, MAC, Matco, and Cornwell truck and go meet them. FYI, ask for a FREE large catalog.

@HeyDerFolks 3 месяца назад

I picked up the free large catalog from the website on a previous order, super cool to have around the shop. I’ve seen Mac trucks around but never been on a truck besides snap on. May have to check them out!

@reap62 3 месяца назад

As an experienced snap on truck shopper, I dont know if youre prepared for the absurd amount of new lights that snap on comes out with, one time the dealer was showing me a new light they just came out with and half way through the demonstration it became a completely different light.

@HeyDerFolks 3 месяца назад

Lol, I’m starting to realize that. I just bought the neck light and now I see they came out with a new version of it to go higher on your head. Crazy!

@PTRRanger951 5 месяцев назад

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Agreed, long term they’re tough to beat, even at the upfront prices and they’ll last a couple lifetimes with proper care

@ToolTalkChannel 2 месяца назад

First video and I’ll definitely be watching more!… you really don’t use the tools? Is something you collect? Just curious when you said something like “the tools themselves are the end”. Cheers! The set looks bit of kit! I’m eyeing those pliers for certain. Plus, my favorite ratcheting stubby is hands down my snap on. If I need something smaller I have a couple options but if I can fit the stubby and my hand in there… I have to try to hard handle stubby as I recently saw one. My dealer never even mentioned it haha

@HeyDerFolks Месяц назад

I generally buy the tools in search of a project. I use them as much as I am able, though the videos of me using them don’t seem to do as well on RU-vid as the ones of me buying and unboxing. Love the stubby ratcheting Snap Ons!

@chrxx4327 5 месяцев назад

Wow dude, that snap on dealer was really blowing some smoke up your you know what. Blue point is melted down snap on tools, hahaha, nah. Blue point are just made in taiwan or china tools that snap on sells to capture a more price conscious buyer. Knipex fits german cars better because they're made in germany? Hahaha, nah. That's not how that works. A metric tool has to meet metric specifications. like ANSI or DIN specifications. They're all the same "fit" wise for the most part. Especially comparing top tier manufacturers like snap on and knipex.

@chrxx4327 5 месяцев назад

@@HeyDerFolks I mean no offense to you. I'm just calling out that snap on dealer for saying stuff that is just a straight up lie or made up. Just gives me that grimy "says anything for a sale" type sales man vibe to me.

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

I hear you, and I get it, we should all take what a salesman says with a grain of salt. That being said, why offer such an elaborate story as a lie? His initial answer was that they were snap on designed (not manufactured) tools, which were likely to be better than the Husky/Kobalt etc. stuff you’d get at a homecenter. He then opened the drawer full of broken tools to show me and explained the process by which he sends them back to snap on and what they do with them. I’m not the expert, and I don’t really have a dog in the fight (I have no interest in buying blue point), I’m just not sure what he would stand to gain from perpetuating such an elaborate hoax.

@chrxx4327 5 месяцев назад

@@HeyDerFolks I'm not claiming to know all the inner works at snap on. But logic dictates that of course they will scrap steel. There is money to be made. However companies typically would just offload the scrapping process to a third party who specializes in that field. Logistically, and monetarily it makes no sense for them to waste their efforts scrapping and shipping overseas to the exact factories that make blue point. Also since many of the blue point tools are from a white label manufacturer who makes the same tools for other companies with a different name. That muddies the logistics even further.

@WC3fanatic997 5 месяцев назад

I think a lot of the idea around Tool Trucks is that they're meant "For Mechanics" and other "Professionals" who use tools for making money and thats pretty much it. But you dont have to be; any Joe Blow off the street can just . . . _walk onto the Tool Trucks._ Even if they're parked outside a mechanics or someplace specific primarily for specific people, you can just mosey on up and buy stuff. I dont know why that seemed so foreign a concept to me either, but maybe I'm just a late bloomer. That being said, aside from Snap-On's website being weird, buying from Tool Trucks is also supporting an independent business of sorts; as far as I know the vast majority of them are all independently owned dealers that own all of their own stuff. Yea, Snap-On is expensive as hell . . . but it's primarily American-Made, and independently owned American businesses. I can always support that, even if I dont have the wallet for it.

It very well may have been one of those “right representative, right time” situations, and if the dealership thing hadn’t worked out I would’ve called back.

@jarikoltuniak1181 5 месяцев назад

Don't buy those snap on hand tools that knipex makes. I thought snap on was the best and bought all snap on until the knipex stuff came out and quickly realized Knipex is far superior. I have both now and I grab the Knipex every time. Knipex makes hundreds of tools, not just cobra pliers.

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

I have a handful of knipex, cobras, wire cutters, and the perpendicular jaw pliers. Not afraid of adding more, they’re definitely a top notch tool!

Im pretty certain that you misspoke when saying you work mostly with 3/4" sockets/ratchets. Of course, I assume you meant 3/8" unless you're working heavy duty machinery.

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Yep, meant 3/8

Couldn’t agree more! Had a chance to use the electronic screwdrivers tonight, and pulling them out of the foam was a real treat!

@Bloodsong0830 5 месяцев назад

3/4 inch for a home owner? Do you mean 3/8ths?

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Yes I meant to say 3/8

@T6Tarek 5 месяцев назад

3/8" ratchets. 3/4" is large equipment.

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Real facepalm moment for me, didn’t realize i said 3/4 until the comments started rolling in 🫠

@T6Tarek 5 месяцев назад

@@HeyDerFolks at first I thought you meant up to 3/4 like a socket size than I was like oh he's talking drive size he must be compensating lol

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

Eh, not really worried about how it’d look, but aiming to be respectful first time on the truck. I’m sure he wouldn’t have cared (pretty reasonable question to ask), but I had a directional understanding of the prices given my wishlist on the website so I was okay without having to ask.

3/8*

@Halfsack-zac 5 месяцев назад

@@HeyDerFolks That makes a lot more sense. I am a heavy equipment technician and I don’t break out the 3/4 until stuff gets crazy. Lol. We have wheels that are torqued to 680 ft lbs. those deserve the 3/4.

It’s your money and if it makes you happy go for it. However unless you are wealthy I don’t see the logic of buying SO unless you’re wrenching hard daily or almost daily in a professional setting. Otherwise SO is just not worth the $ for the occasional/casual user.

@HeyDerFolks 5 месяцев назад

I disagree, but appreciate your perspective!

How are is blue point snap on tools melted down and re made ? Overwhelming amount of blue point stuff is made in Taiwan/china so Shit my co worker paid 300 for one blue point regular combination wrench set Hot damn that’s a lot for Chinese

@Halfsack-zac 5 месяцев назад

lol they sure don’t want you to ask the price but I work too hard for my money to let them sucker me into some of there overpriced tools. Don’t get me wrong they make good stuff but it’s not all worth it.

It did not. Historically my Robertson use case has been the Kreg pocket hole screws and I have some impact bits for that. Though now that you mention it….to the wishlist we go 🤣
