Wow actually one of the few tool box tours that actually impressed me. Been doing this for 40 years and have worked on just about every type of construction and mining equipment. I wouldn't be afraid to throw anything at you because you have the tools and knowledge to get it done.
What can I say? Anybody would be very proud to own a toolbox & tool collection like this!! You seem to have all your bases covered. Really top notch set-up! I know how hard it is to not only purchase a toolbox like your but I can really apparently the huge task of filling that toolbox with quality tools & the organization of all the tools in that box as well. I'm always pecking at other people's toolbox inventories, you can always learn something new. Whether it's a new tool, organizational ideas, or customization ideas. Thanks for sharing your big, beautiful toolbox inventory with us! Gregg Critter Muse
That's an awesome set-up,and long time collecting stuff for a master tradesmen. I hope they have insurance for that set-up or a very grouchy rottweiler keeping an eye on that bad boy.
Sick setup. I love the compulsion, makes me feel better about my own brass and light “redundancies” :) Thanks for the light recommendations, a couple more couldn’t hurt. I know what you’re saying about the torch, it can be a little touchy, I got it because I don’t think I’ve ever owned a tool made in Ireland. Love the sticker, made me laugh.
Randy Ness.. New subscriber here.. That's an awesome toolbox and even better collection of tools.. I think you might need one or two more flashlights... hahaha
Lots of stuff in boxes which is what I like too, you get the new tool feel each time its opened but you lose the ease of getting to it. I'm going to build a first order retrievability cart, Adam savage style soon.
Very nice....snap-on/blue point, Mac all very good tools, definitely worth the money, the people that say craftsmen or harbor freight tools are just as good as snap- on are the people that have never used snap-on or Mac tools....
I DISAGREE. I have lots of Snap-on tools. When I was working on new stuff they were great. But, in my world, and I think to most of us "salts of the earth" out here, who are eeking by, driving pieces of shit, working on sump pumps, 70 year old tractors, lawn mowers, Aunt Betty's door, wild children, vet bills and an endless supply of things to fix. CRAFTSMAN IS MY BRAND. Try that Snap-on open end wrench on a 90 year old bolt and they won't fit. SnapOn tolerances are way to tight for us. Besides, I never knew a mechanic to worry about rounding off bolts, hell, even leaving bolts out. Craftsman were way cheaper and Lifetime Warranty, and the stores were everywhere. Have you looked at an old 70's-80's Craftsman catalog? It will blow your mind to what was available to the home handyman, Simply Awesome! great quality tools for the average Joe. Not many people work of stuff now like we did. It's ashamed you kids missed out on life without phones and elecktonics. Soooooo, you guys are a very specialized trade, therefor requiring very precision instruments. I see these fancy boxes and see a '69 Corvette AND a '68 Hemi Charger, along with my Craftsman Tools. So, you guys should Apreciate Craftsman Tools more. They were the Backbone of American enginuity, and prosperity. I mean, we feel the snubs, and it is unrealistic that you have no Craftsman Tools.
@@randalljude6136 I can understand your whole thing there, I'm not bad mouthing craftsman I have them in my box next to snap-on but where is Craftsman now, at least in my area try to warrenty them, it's like pulling teeth...and yes the catalog from Sears was pretty cool, you could order a whole home package, was definitely pretty neat, the good old days...
Thats nice box man I have a epic 60 just to kinda collect tools I do oil changes on my truck and my wife's jeep wrangler but for the most part I like collecting snap-on tools lol I have a hutch ordered why not lol its just a payment plan 😀
Talk to your snap on dealer about your torch that isn't igniting. I had issues with my torch 400 and 300 both times my dealer replaced them and told me the ignitors are covered under warranty. I prefer the 400 It has a little more control.
Most of the Mac stuff in those blow molded cases are offshore made. If I were you I would stop spending the price for those tools and stick with Snappy. That said thanks for letting us peak in my friend, have a great go of it.
You sound like James Hetfield , give us a chorus of 'Enter Sandman' 😃 Nice set up , cost more than my house 😮👍 Edit , reading the comments , quite a few haters/ trolls. What the f**ks wrong with some people. 😯
Thank you. The company I work for has cranes, aerial lift equipment, dirt equipment, tractor/trailers, trucks, small engine stuff, power tools and everything in between.
2 quick questions for ya, that hydraulic tubing flaring tool can do how much exactly, does it cover all types of brake lines and fuel lines and transmissions lines or most of them? And then you mentioned the rethreading kit, wondering if my tap and die sets are good enough, yes the cut threads instead of “chase” them but I feel like it does the same thing, if u could enlighten me a little bit that would be super cool!
The flare set from Mastercool does double flare, GM trans line, GM fuel line, push connect flare and metric bubble flare. As for the rethreading kit. Its quicker to grab and go to clean threads than a tap because all you need is a socket to do work with it.
@@randyness5123 I’m a Ford tech that occasionally works on a bunch of other stuff the customers had upfitted, was hoping a kit could do it all but not sure if gm and ford are the same for that, overall tho I’ll probably just get 2 kits lol thanks for the info I’ll def get that kit added to the never ending collection!
Greatly overpriced. Also, all of the contents looks like they've never been used. At one time I had a Snap-on black multi-box setup. Within 6 months, the drawers pull-handles were failing. Locking mechanisms stopped working and the box's seams welding were failing. Snap-on didn't care. I ended up suing them and got my money back. I bought a Matco toolbox setup as a replacement. ZERO problems.
@@randyness5123 NO, I bought that black Snap-on toolbox combo NEW, and ordered it through the Snap-on dealer that came to the shop each week. Your implication is not only rude but very disrespectful. I'm a 50+ years master level factory certified auto/truck tech. BTW, I couldn't care less what capacity your double slides drawers are.
@@sergeantmasson3669 the same could be said about your opinion. Im not a Snap-On fanboy by any means. I have a lot of different brands. And I do have some tools that have never been used so who cares? I have many years left in my career to use them. I've never worked at a dealership or any type of auto service shop and I'm currently not a full time mechanic because I operate cranes, heavy equipment and drive commercial vehicles as well. I like to collect tools. There shouldnt be anything to disrespect about that. The video was just an informal to show people what i got.
@@randyness5123 I'm 50+ years master level factory certified auto/truck tech. I also earned two college master's degrees. I'm not blind and I can read quite well. As I stated, I have a set of Snap-on wrenches that are clearly stamped "Made in Canada" and a few Snap-on screwdrivers that are stamped "Made in India." Yes, majority of Snap-on hand tools are "Made in the USA" but not all were/are.
I wouldn't say "no good". Maybe it's not fully capable of reaching max torque with a smaller fitting. But she slams harder than my 3/4 inch I will tell you that.
@@randyness5123 Milwaukee makes sockets , Ratchets and rattle guns now they out do any brand including snap on. Just a pitty they don’t get made in America
The fact that this tech is willing to waste his money on snap on electric tools when there are better options for half the price just blows my mind. I tell techs all the time don't waste your money. Snap on has a Terrible warranty for electrical tools and batteries.
I wouldn't say better options. Maybe comparable options at best. Snap-On has a 1 year warranty on tool and battery. I've never had any issues with any of my cordless tools. My most used impact is a CT8810 and its 7 years old and still going strong.
@@randyness5123 REALLY? I had a Snap-on mig-welder that crapped out at 14 months and Snap-on refused to do anything about it and wouldn't even offer to repair it at my expense. I ended up buying a Matco mig-welder. 10 years later, it's still functioning perfectly.
When you've been buying tools and boxes for 18 years this is what it can get you. Average that out and you got about a $5,500 per year investment. Not bad at all.
I will never understand why people spend so much on snapon mac etc a Milwaukee dewalt kobalt heck even a harbor fright wrench will take a nut or bolt off the same way. Only way i would ever pay a large amount of money for a tool is if its a specialty or specific tool needed for a certain job .i would never pay 10k or more for a toolbox when i could get one that does the same thing for a 1/4 or 1/3 of that price lol
I can respect your opinion. And the comparison of cheap wrenches doing the same job as efficiently as a quality wrench is a debate I'm not willing to start. This box of tools I own puts a smile on my face everyday I come to work and its been a goal of mine throughout my career. You cannot put a price tag on that.
