    Toptul 24/22 flare nut for air brake fittings. Nice quality. Picked up a ph3 screwdriver as well to try out the toptul drivers as they have a nice set available, wanted to try one before I went for the complete set though. Seems nice. Knipex cobra was on sale. I have the biggest and smallest...

    Cordless Impact Wrench

    If you already have a 1/2 inch gun I'd get either a 3/8 or 1/4, Milwaukee would be my choice. I have the big 1/2 gun and to be honest it would be overkill for a lot of things on cars, especially considering you already have an air 1/2 inch. 3/8 drive fuel would be my choice:).

    As a technician, how much does NOT owning a scan tool limit you?

    Hi, To be honest, for me anyway, not having a laptop based diagnostics programme would cause me to spend way too much time in repairing stuff at work, that's if I even found the problem at all. An example would be something I saw last week. Truck came in with intermittent debate/limp mode...

    Taking the plunge to a bigger box...

    Thanks for all the input and pics, it's given me much to think about but ultimately I think I'll be getting the box soon enough. From an efficiency point of view it can be time consuming digging something out from the bottom of a drawer with other stuff crammed on top of it:thumbup:

    Taking the plunge to a bigger box...

    Having like in tools in the same drawers is a big incentive to get the bigger box, at the moment there's no space to move stuff around to make it more organised. And the bigger stuff like test kits, pressure testers won't fit in the box so I have them stuffed down the back of it. Unfortunately...

    Taking the plunge to a bigger box...

    That's exactly it. I have bought a small side cab but that's full now too, I don't want to keep adding bits on and end up with a mish mash of random smaller boxes. But as you said it's hard to justify the cost of the box when I could get other tools with it. Don't get me wrong I have all the...

    Taking the plunge to a bigger box...

    What made up your mind finally to take the plunge to buy a bigger box? Right now I have a smallish box, pretty much completely full but keep thing I could pack it more and spend the box money on more tools! I can't decide! :lol:
