Same for me, i have the exact same torque wrench, but my work won't let me use it on lugs, so i rarely use it. Bought mine for $108 at a pawn shop though.

Hell I would never use that beaut on lug nuts, I have another crapsmen torque wrench for that.

I pretty much use this for engine work and more critical specs than lugs.

$108 was a steal.

Your job wont let you use your own tools to do the best job possible? Are you Hourly or something?

least used snap on tool would have to be the pilot bearing puller that gets the dust blown off maybe once a year, but it works friggin sweet. i was thinking the blue point manifold spreaders, but they have had thier moments of frequent use.

Snap-On FHNF100 for me, had to have it when it first came out but I rarely use it. I think the handle is too long for most of the times when I need a 3/8" ratchet.

Green handled file set that I bought in the eraly 1990's. I thought that I would use the hell out of them, but I think that I have used them twice.

I have the Snapon ATECH3FR250. Awesome torque wrench but last time I used it was installing heads on a 2004 F-150 8 months ago.

I got one of these too if they are the 1/2" size. Got it new from snappy for $400. Only use it to torque lugs and thats it.

i've had that same torque wrench for about 3 weeks now and have used it half a dozen times. I'm a DIY'er so I'd consider that a bit of usage.
I'd say my least used is my body hammer set. used 2 hammers and 1 dolly a couple times in the year I've had them. good job I got them for a song.

End nippers, (blue point), came in the 8 piece plier set. Never used them before. Not even sure how to correctly use them anyways!

That is the best deal of the century. Wow, even at a pawn shop too.

The PIT-120 impact driver. I actually have two -- one that's part of a set, and one loose. I probably ought to part with that single one, I've never heard of one of these things breaking, and it's hard to 'accidentally' abuse one. It was discussed a week or so ago, but this is one seldom used tool that you absolutely can't do without.

No im a tech at firestone, they want us all to use their torque wrenches, even though mine is more accurate and has never ever needed to be calibrated, unlike theirs, which we do almost every freaking month.

Yea its a chain type pawn shop that is all over Wichita, Ks called A-Ok. I think this particular location didn't know what they had, because later that day i went to their hub store, and they had the same wrench 2 years older for $300.

My least used Snap-On tool was my local driver that I tried to order parts from.

Went on the truck. He logged in what I needed to buy via his computer and I never heard from him again.


When I called SO customer service they said the order was never placed.
Huh? I saw him type it in.

Outside of 3/4" and 1" ratchets and breaker bars and big S-O jacks he was also one of the largest Snap On tools I have ever had to deal with as well.

Sad but true.

This air ratchet:

I never did like it, so it has been used very little since new, over 30 years ago.

Also, my timing light hasn't been out in many years:

torque angle gauge that came with a breaker bar. and compression gauge that i bought because i borrowed one more than 4 times in a month so i bought me one. haven't needed one since service has been selling teardown based off relative compression print outs. F*****s!
