So I have a Line 6 guitar amp. Judging by your signature, you had a hand in designing it?

I know, I know. But after sitting somewhere for twenty years a lot of them lose a piece, or new technology/tools make them obsolete. Also no one at the shop knows what the hell they're used for or what they are anymore. So even if I did take them home I wouldn't know how to sell them or who to...

I work at a dealership and we are moving next month. I went to work this morning and helped my boss throw out tons of old specialty tools and manuals. Literally an entire room full of them. I know it sounds like sacrilege but honestly a lot of that **** is so old and designed to do some obscure...

I never used them and I even thought they were a stupid idea. Then I got one with my tools and gave it a try. Now I basically never use fixed head ratchets and I'm a technician who works with tools all day.

What part of westchester? I grew up in somers (class of 06)

Awesome garage and great cobras too! P.s.- I live right across the bridge in Gloucester so we're almost neighbors

I was pretty surprised to see the one garage that had a ferrari parked next to a 1954 ford. I have a 1954 ford and certainly don't consider it an "exotic". but maybe that's because mine is prmered and doesnt run!

I found a air "blow gun" (not an actual blow gun, but a long thing that blows compressed air, you know what I mean?) under the hood of a jetta I was working on. it was sitting up by the radiator core spport. How someone left a 3 ft silver tool under a hood without noticing is beyond me. Ive...

Hmm i may need to try and find some more of these free stuff coupons. I'd like to get the black-handled set too. And I wish I had seen that multimeter one before i spent $1.99 on one :) (i swear I bought it just to check battery voltages lol, no major electrical diagnosis with it. It's still in...

So My girlfriend was going through our sunday paper cutting out coupons, and I had her toss me the harbor freight flyer (we have a store in our town). At the top I noticed a coupon for a free 6 pc screwdriver set, no purchase necessary! So I clipped the coupon and headed over today after work. I...

I get a free pair of snap-on socks around christmas time from my dealer lol. I will admit as dumb as it sounds, they are the best socks I've ever worn. No free tools yet though and my box/tools probably have a combined list price of about 15k.

i picked up those mid-length sockets for a $100 a few weeks ago too. Haven't used them a whole lot yet but they are pretty sweet. My dealer was offering the sockets and some ratchet for 170 but I already had the ratchet. So he let me get the sockets by themselves for a hundred.

I won mine in a raffle for free at a "miller road show" welding show about six years ago at a local welding supply store. Feel free to hate me haha. But in all seriousness It's a great grinder. It's probably the tool I use the most for fabrication and it's never let me down once.

I find it odd that they call it the "professional" series. I'm a professional-there are no chinese wrenches, sockets, or ratchets in my box. And If I was going to buy chinese quality tools (I try not to but we all do it occasionally) I would just go to harbor freight where its cheap at least...

Yeah they really do two totally different jobs. thats kind of like asking "which do you prefer...a wrench or a screwdriver?" (maybe not quite that different but you get the idea). Both are useful in certain situations

griot's appears to be the only one with a lift where any work gets done. non-working garages=fail

the only sticker on my box is from northern tools. it says "my other car hasn't been assembled yet". which is sad but true lol.

i am a volkswagen technician. so i get to write my tools off as a "business expense" lol

i have a small set at home from when i worked on cars before i was a professional. but its nowhere near as nice as my work set.

im a professional tech and I don't own a set, but i wish i did! they can be really useful and its something I'll be buying someday when i'm making more money. I guess it depends what you work on. I'f you're working on old-school small block chevy's you probably don't need a set, but if you work...
