We have Rousseau at work. They've been installed for about 7-8 years. One has rusted out (likely had some damage in the paint mixed in with the harsh chemicals in our environment) the rest are fine. The drawers are incredible. Day in day out usage, fully loaded. Not one person has an issue...

It's a snap on cart. Older but still snap on. Did some digging for you Circa 2003 Edit : screenshot attached terrible quality (ipad). Found in catalog posted here https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=308163 Page 56 Looks like the logo was added later in life

I'm looking at the harbor freight US General series 2 tool cart shown here I'm not from the US but will be crossing the border. Any idea if it will fit in the trunk of a Mazda 3. It won't fit in my convertible and that's the only other vehicle I'm able to use. Anybody tried or have a similar...

Definitely has to be snap on chrome swivel sockets. They hurt to buy once then you lose one and have to rebuy and it hurts all over again. I've tried other brands. They just don't compare.

+1. I have the 60 dollar snap on magnetic socket. Absolute garbage. I've gone back to a cheap offshore one or gear wrench swivel ones. I've broken probably around 5 with the snap on on GM's. Usually cracks or chips the porcelain. Even had the porcelain fall into the motor and get stuck once...

Didn't want to make a new thread for this but looking for a recommendation. I have little to no scope experience / training aside from school. Nobody in my current or past 2 shops has used a scope. I currently work at a gm dealer. Im looking for a starting place to learn to use a scope...

The 2 tools I'd have to say are the most innovative would be the miniductor and the mayhew shake n break. Both of these tools have saved me a few times. The idea behind the mini ductor is why I would put it as most innovative.

Haha figures I just received my 40sl to replace my ATD saber. Oh well maybe I will lose the 40sl as well and have a reason to buy another.

I've ordered off the snap on website a few times as our local dealer would come once every 6 weeks and was useless. He wouldn't give you the time of day unless you were consistently dropped 500 every other week and unfortunately for him by the time he decided to come by back when I was an...

This has been previously discussed. See this thread http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=345489&showall=1 I believe the consensus was they look similar but are not the same quality wise - shafts weren't straight, duplicates, etc

I had a pp3 for a few years and had no problems with it being damaged. I now have a PP IV and had an issue it was displaying approx 1v low when compared with my fluke so they warrantied it.

I'd recommend the Astro pair. I work in the trade and I've had mine for years. Never had an issue with them and if they broke I'd buy the same pair again.

I work at a dealer and we have built in boxes similar to lista. Ours are Rousseau with stainless tips. Very good quality I've seen guys stand on the drawers. Also our parts dept is full of similar Rousseau cabinets and drawers. Most of us have carts. I bought a large cart / box on the side that...

Anybody see in the new flyers going around they now sell a 38 20v ratchet wrench (150 normally. On sale until October 6 for 100). There's 2 in stock near me. Not as small as Milwaukee but specs say it's stronger. Then again it is 20v. If I had some of their line or didn't already own a Milwaukee...
