    New 1/4” Snap-on Locking Wobble Extensions

    Snap on 1/4" chrome locking extensions always break on the lock like the cheaper brands. They're impact locking extensions seem to hold up a little better.

    Swivel Sockets, Different Lengths Necessary? Shallow, Semi Deep, Deep

    I have so many different swivel sockets in 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drives. Everything from short, semi deep and deep. Both chrome and impact. Yanking out engines and transmissions all day, sometimes you need to get the perfect angle for bolts and nuts in a bad spot to reach.

    Do you often use a 1/4" nut driver screwdriver?

    I use mine all the time at work. Mostly on interior and dashboard work.

    What do you use your tools on

    Mine are used at work at a dealer. Soon as I'm retired, I'm selling at least 90% of them.

    Lightbulbs….

    I love my outside dusk to dawn LED's with sunlight sensors. Turn the switch on a forget about it. They turn themselves on and off as needed.

    Succession plan for your tools?

    As soon as I retire, I plan on selling most of my tools. I'll sell them on ebay or have a garage sale. Maybe even give some away to someone who can use them. I'll keep a few basic tools like screwdrivers, pliers, some wrenches and a small socket set.

    Gearwrench torque wrench?

    I had the Gearwrench digital angle torque wrench for sidejobs at home. It lasted about 2 years before it started to flip out (would just turn off during an angle measurement). I wouldn't buy another one. My snap on tech angle torque wrenches I have at work get way more use and have been working...

    CoThG's Toolbox question thread

    You got all the answers don't you guy? Where are you getting your information from? Honestly you sound like one of the lower skilled people hating on mechanics and repair shops. ps: Your GPS and remote tool box lock sound like a piss poor idea.

    Converting first gen M12 ratchet (non-fuel) 3/8 to a 1/4

    In my case, the 3/8" felt underpowered and an extra 1/4" drive ratchet for at home was more useful to me.

    Converting first gen M12 ratchet (non-fuel) 3/8 to a 1/4

    I've done this years ago. The 1/4" and 3/8" heads are interchangeable in these ratchets. I had the part numbers saved at one time but can't find them right now.

    What would everyone choose for a pry bar set if you were to buy new?

    I have Snap on and Mayhew pry bars. Both are nice but the Snap ons are a little more beefy and sturdy feeling than the Mayhews.
