Back story: My GFs dad had a Snap-on Muscle Mig 250 that has been sitting in the garage for the last couple of years since he passed away and I have a project coming up where I am going to weld some sheet metal. The mig was loaded up with 0.035 wire so after some research I come to the conclusion that the easiest way to get a new liner to run 0.025" wire is just to get it off the truck if possible so I call SO and get all 3 local dealers number (I only knew of 2).

First guy I call still hasn't got back to me. Second guy called me back right after I hung up and said "yep I carry all the parts for those and i'll check when I stop to make sure I have one and call you back". Calls me back less than 10 minutes later and tells me he has one and its $30.96. Arrange to meet him a little bit later at a local shop. Go on the truck look at the nifty stuff, BS a little and get the liner. Overall an excellent experience that makes me want to buy from him if I ever need anything.

Now to the good part. He has a pretty darn good selection of hard handle stuff. 3 sets of mini torx drivers one in each color Black, Orange, red. A lot of screwdrivers in black, gray and even a few in orange. The only bad part is he didn't have any of the hard handled mini picks and even had a guy trade him a brand new pick for his old one he had on his truck.

If he had a set of the full size picks with hard handles I admit I probably would of pulled out the plastic. I already have the mini's in long and regular and use the all the time.
