    Is this Snap on a good deal for $5000?

    Tool box doesn't make you money, end of subject. My tools work for me, I don't work for them. The craftsman box will hold your tools. The Snap On box will hold your tools. One is $600 the other is $6000. You do the math. If you want a cool box, then get one, it's your flippin money. But don't...

    Tools for sale, not selling? WTF. ?????

    Re: Tools for salel, not selling? WTF. ????? People hate buying entire lots. Most guys buying used tools want a little of this and a little of that, not a giant pile of stuff they already have duplicates of. Not to mention you painted half those tools an awful, awful green color. I wouldn't...

    Husky tool box @ HD

    It's home depot. Some kids could have messed with it, or it could have been damaged during shipment. I can go break the slide on a Snap On drawer, doesn't really speak much to the quality of the box. Only way to know is to use it for 20 years. For $30 bucks I don't see why you guys are expecting...

    Husky tool box @ HD

    It's a $30 floor model. What did you expect? It has cheap hinges and slides, thin metal and sloppy closing mechanisms. The tolerances are loose and the quality control is minimal. It holds your tools. It's 30 bucks. You now know everything there is to know about this box. I never get why...

    Mac Tech 1000 vs Harbor Freight 41/44 tool boxes

    Tool boxes don't make you money. Does it hold your tools? Yes? If so, get the cheapest one available that won't fall apart. If thicker sheet metal and a slightly nicer slide is worth literally, no joke, 10 times the price, of a HF box that is universally well reviewed and has the same warranty...

    Anyone keep their dog in the garage?

    Lots of misinformation in this thread. A hunting dog that sleeps inside won't become "soft" and unable to hunt or too weak to be outside in the cold. Complete nonsense. A hunting breed is built in with a coat you'd pay a thousand bucks for and still feel like you got off cheap. They can spend...

    The Green Snap-on Tools ****

    $170 for a 160 lumen rebranded flash light that normally retails for $100 (and isn't even a good deal at that). I mean, it's your money, do what you want with it, and if guys like SnapOn, good for them, but jesus christ. Talk about getting bent over. I guess I don't have the stones to scam...

    i need a torque wrench

    So you are refusing to provide citations or reasons why they would refuse to calibrate it. Sounds like complete ******** to me. Your analogy is also bogus. This isn't comparing a mickey mouse camera to a $4000 Canon. This is a low end tool compared to middle of the road tools. You are...

    Getting soft in my old age

    "My only comment: Many new "bigger" boxes, have huge volume but actually LESS square inches due to the preponderance of Deep drawer designs" That doesn't make sense.

    Angle wrench set

    jmm, the set you listed from Harry Epstein is over twice what the bargain brands cost. Sure, they are nice tools, but I don't know why you think they cost less, when they aren't even close.

    Do you actually ever use speeder bars?

    I see these for sale all the time in classifieds, yet I don't know if I've ever seen ANYONE use one in my lifetime other than to just try it out. Do you use one? If so, why?

    anyone remember these?

    Broaching works on large hard materials too, you just need an even sharper and harder broach and a metric **** load of force.

    best score of tools u have found while popping the hood

    Unreal thread, absolutely despicable. Your average technician spends more on schooling and tools, and gets less in return via salary than your average 2 year employee. Technicians spend MORE and make LESS. They often live and die by their tools. And you would steal them? I'm sorry, unless you...
