I love that show.

Yeah I love that show too. It's kinda dull and dry, but a lot of times they have some interesting stuff being featured. Channellock was featured when they did an episode on how pliers were made.

They made Snap On wrenches a while back as well.

I recently saw the one where they made Snap-On sockets too. I love watching these episodes.

I set my DVR too. I hope that there is a youtube video of the tool box segment that I can run on my truck.

They also made duel 80's a while back

I hope someone's going to put it on youtube because i missed it

 

[Blacknwhitepit]

It was very short. They showed the assembly of a classic 78 I think. It was neat to watch, but I think they should have made it a whole half hour.

The first segment showed how they made GP motorcycles... They showed a lot of BETA tools in the background.

They also showed a snap on box with what looked to be a radio in it??? Anyone see what that was?

P.S. It was on the Science channel here....
