    The Rebranded Tool Thread

    Awesome thread. I admit it though, colors get me every time and designs. If it is boring, doesn't feel right in my hand or feels cheap, then I just have a hard time buying the cheaper one. If it is the same quality of tool and looks decent I will buy. Great thread.

    Tools, tools and entry tech?

    That sounds abut right. He opened a new shop or something, has OCD like crazy, has tools he says he cleans religiously but uses, and has tools for his son? Cool video.

    Tools, tools and entry tech?

    Well thanks a lot guys. I will continue to add these on the list as posted. I do indeed want to work on them as I have had a '91, '97 and '98 and did all the repairs, luckily nothing major yet. Everyone has their preference right? I like the GM trucks too as I pull my double axle landscaping...

    Stupid question: what makes a screwdriver good? Full metric meaning 8mm-24mm on wrenches? Any IR 1/2'' impact will be good?

    Tools, tools and entry tech?

    I will have to try this. "If you have to borrow it more than once......" something they like to say the first semester over and over. Great advice and glad some of the veteran techs have somewhat of an understanding. I will be writing down the tools discussed within this forum on a pad of paper...

    Tools, tools and entry tech?

    I guess I should've mentioned that in the above post. I would like to work on mainly cars but not limited to diesels (mainly my truck and in the future if needed the dealer fill in diesel tech). Funny thing is my dad was a lube tech and managed a shop when the owner decided he would try a new...

    Tools, tools and entry tech?

    Hey guys. I am new to the forum and would like to say what's up? I think I may have found this by an accidental google search and the other time was through a youtube Macimizer tool box video (if that is how they spell their box). I would like to start off saying that the instructors in my...
