    Affordable quality heat gun

    I bought a Steinel heat gun for work. It’s been a flawless tool for many years now. The digital display allows you to dial in the desired temp. Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

    Buying German Tools from... well... Germany (to save cash)

    I purchased some hazet tools from Jens Putzier a few years ago. I couldn’t find better prices and shipping was quick. Not sure what his prices are like now but worth a look. https://www.jensputzier.com If I remember correctly, I think Jens was even a member here.

    Mac R.B.R.T. ???

    I have found the exact same thing with the gold snap-on. I have an old regular Mac torx set that I keep as backup to my gold snap-on and find I use them more then the snap-on. I might have to check these new Mac ones out.

    Giveaway: Astro 78300 100-tooth flex head ratcheting wrench for Nano sockets

    I don’t have a pick of my nanos in action as I am off work with a broken hip. I am coming up two years with both the 1/2 and 3/8 metric and I use them all the time. Perfect for getting in tight spots and I have never had an issue with them. Super pleased with the purchase.

    lube tech/light service tool setup

    From a fellow MB tech, I can not live without a few MB essentials. I mainly use 1/4” drive for most things. A good etorx set is essential, especially e10 and e12. I also love my 1/4” swivel e socket set as well. At the time Snap-on was the only place that offered them but now you can find...

    Snap-on 18v tools - buy more or switch to milwaukee

    I just replaced my 5 year old 20v IR 1/2” impact with the current Milwaukee version and love it. I also have a 1/4 m12 impact and the first gen m12 ratchet. I ended up bringing the ratchet home and bought a snap-on cordless ratchet. I always felt the m12 ratchet was cheap and was going to...

    Looking for clean (steady) 14+v DC power supply capable of 50+amps

    A second battery is not an option in these cases. I know on some of the new w222 S classes, if they don't see a steady 14v and 30 plus amps the module will not program. I don't think I would want to risk a few thousand dollar computer hoping a deep cycle battery would be sufficient.

    Looking for clean (steady) 14+v DC power supply capable of 50+amps

    I have looked into this issue. I program Mercedes which aren't as current hungry as the bimmers. I have found that a lot of techs are using the 90amp Iota power supplies. The cheapest I have found them is from these guys...

    What is a good test light to use?

    Isn't the snap-on EECT900 a power probe 4 in a different package? When my dealer showed it to me a few weeks ago I didn't see anything it could do that the power probe 4 couldnt And if you watch any of Dan Sullivan's angry videos, I believe he shows one in which a power probe 4 uses a...

    SO Thermal Imager

    Do some more research. The tg165 is not a true thermal imager. It only gives you a temp at one specific spot. The snap on and the E4 take a temp reading at thousands of points giving you the temp scale on the right of the screen. Like I said previously, the Tg165 is just a temp gun with a...

    SO Thermal Imager

    The flir TG165 is not a true IR camera. It is just a spot thermometer with a picture. If you want to compare the snap-on to something, it's more like the Flir E4. If I was to buy one I would get the E4, that can be hacked for way better resolution, essentially making it an E8 which is a $5000...
