    Let's see your toolbox.

    thanks guys! @scott37300 I told them to choose something appropriate for the automotive industry. I had a look at the invoice and there's no mention of foam density, just an internal code for foam type. For what it's worth, it's 30mm thick with the 13mm pockets (except for the big flat...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    If you have loads of snap on, you can check out www.toolbed.de You input the part no. (one drawer at a time) and it generates the respective contours which you can move around in any way you wish. Very easy to use. Good professional quality although not routed but layered. I did it the old...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Looks even better in real life :) It's properly routed by a foam company. Normally they would charge you a fortune but not if you do the layouts yourself. I'm up in Staffs me.

    Any good alternatives to these Snap-On tools?

    The Snap on set is definitely rebadged Bojo. I have both the trim tools and scrapers, they're excellent little tools. Mine are ultra strength, I wanted the prybars to be as strong as plastic can be and yet soft on painted metal and trims. I've used the scrapers a few times and you can't tell by...

    Smokin' Beta tool offer is for real?

    'Beta Easy' is the budget range. Bought one of those 1/2 socket sets about a year ago, looked pretty solid although only used them a few times. The chromed sockets have some kind of matte silver 'special' coating on the inside on top of the chrome. I've seen that on other manufacturers as well...

    Best brands for certain tools?

    If I were to pick one single (most consistent across the whole range) manufacturer, and on an absolute scale, my list would look like this: Toolboxes: Snap on Wrenches/Ratchets/Sockets: Snap on (Facom, Stahlwille and a few others are equally as good and consistent but It'll have to come down to...

    Wanted: Snap on mini pick/torx/screwdriver set

    thanks, but I already have the foam cut-outs for them so it has to be that set. In fact, I only need the picks and the torx sets so it's a shame none of yours are what I need :(

    floor jack headache

    update: I managed to unscrew the piston assembly. It looks like it had some locking compound on the threads. Anyway it's all making sense now. Last week I had it over at a hydraulic shop down the road to have it serviced and they said they couldn't get the screw off but they wouldn't want to...

    floor jack headache

    Anybody here knows their way around a floor jack? About 2 weeks ago I found it on the floor leaking and thought it needs seals replaced. Because of lost oil, I had a hard time pushing the lift up but once I did it stayed up no problem. Now I'm pretty sure I just stored it sitting vertically...

    Accrued interest as a selling point on toolboxes?

    He's not dumb. He's just thinking to offer the box on credit, just like the snappy dealers, but with 0% interest! Or, is he??? :headscrat

    Bit Holder: You prefer magnetic, or clip?

    I prefer magnetic. Here is my 3/8 drive 1/4 hex bit socket, originally with spring clip which I transformed into a magnetic one. The magnet was donated by a wera bit holder.
