No they wouldn't, many people (especially the ones here) are going to tell you what they think you should get regardless of what your actual needs may be.:lol_hitti

Well if those are the rules here then here is what I think. Everyone should buy their tools from ME. My website is in my sig. For tools other than Snap-on or Blue Point, my email address is [email protected]. I can get just about any brand of tool (except for the other franchised brands). When you buy your tools from me, I will help defend you in any internet flame war about whatever brand you decide to purchase. :D:D:D:D:D

Yes and no. I personally am not supposed to sell Snap-on over the internet. If you want to visit my website and register as one of my customers and place an order then I will get credit for the sale I will be grateful.

This is my toolbox and several drawer pics. Not the most impressive on this site, but not too bad for a 19 year old. Im buying a whole bunch of impact sockets this week too.

I just finished an automotive program at a local school and im looking for a job in a shop now. Hopefully ill be able to upgrade the box in a year or so.

Not a bad collection for someone just starting out. Good luck in your job search.

Here is my humble setup. I just started the automotive program at the beginning of the summer so I am far from having all of what I need.

And last but not lease my empty Fluke 88 drawer, because it is in my bag for my electrical class.

There's alot of Gearwrench in that box for someone who doesn't want to fund Chinese aircraft carriers.:lol:

As I recall, Gearwrench comes from Taiwan, Republic of China. Those Chinese are our allies.

The Chinese aircraft carriers that we <B>don't</B> want to fund are on the other side of the Formosa Straits, in the People's Republic of China

That use to be the case but now most Gearwrench production has moved to mainland China and unfortunately there has been a noticeable quality drop because of it.

Relax, it was only a joke. Besides, that long ago they would have been Taiwan made. The PRC move has been within the last two years.:)

I had outgrown my old toolbox and wanted something a little "different" for my garage remodelling project. I'm a Ford guy so this one fit the bill for me. Show us what you've got.

Psh I don't want to see clean box's I want to see working peoples box's. :bounce:

"Working" would be putting it softly, it's covered in dents and scratches, even the top of the lid is scratched down to the metal. The side has a nice dent and scrape in it from when it fell over when i was loading it into a van. It sure aint "clean". :)

How would you like pics of my ~225 Snap-on hard handles? ;)
