    Cummins ISX destroyer of tools

    Agreed on IR plastic impacts, after wielding one for 8-10 hours a day you will appreciate its lightweight and power. I don't have a Grey Pneumatic truck here but snappy comes by 2-3 times a week so if I was to break one of them it gets replaced quickly.

    Cummins ISX destroyer of tools

    Tell your boss you need them to buy a shop socket for them head bolts...You can surely justify it. Also a good 3/4 impact to turn it with.

    Cummins ISX destroyer of tools

    Take that piece of side wall and weld it back in to finish the job...and buy a good socket next time.

    Welding Table Top Rusting

    Of course it did, that's why it is rusting!! Put some ATF on it and scotchbrite it clean the next day, wash it with brake clean and ATF it again and it will be good.

    New general service tech

    If I was to get on a tool truck the first thing I would ask is to see the used tool bucket... Usually they are all paid for so he will wheel and deal them to get rid of them. Ebay is your friend, you find what you want on the truck and pick it on Ebay for a lot less, no payments, no debt!

    I'm not buying Snap-On Torx socket set anymore.

    All of my 20 year old SO Torx sockets have Apex bits in them now. You have to do something stupid to break one of those and also I get them free at work from one of our suppliers.
