I want your job..
Wanna trade?
What exactly does "Heavy Line" mean, is it in-depth engine/gearbox/suspension work?

sorry... my boss like me and want keep me there.. he are glad that he hired me...
most of time i work are serious engine repairs like tear down the engines in vehicles, swap engine for new engine as customers request or Airport request... I just got 2006 E350 that need new engine because Indianapolis Airport keep driving the E350 and just happen to locked up but what i was told that they did serviced it but they found out it has no oil in engine... they want me to replace the engine...
right now i need finish put all parts back on 2001 Lincoln LS 3.9L engine because secondary tensioner's plastic broke off on left cylinder head and let secondary chain loose. i did tested the cylinder leakdown, all exhaust valves are bent. so i did pulled head out and check on pistons- it is good. machine shop did rebuilt it after they did test the valves- they had to replaced all valves. so i only need put some of parts back before i can start it and drive out... then i can start to pull engine out of E350... i already like to do engine replacements... because i keep myself busy while other techs are sit and waiting for next work to do...
My Cornwell dealer told me he wasn't supposed to sell online either. he can buy tools and sell them to whomever he wants technically. He just cannot have an official website store.
I buy from Snap-on online sometimes, I will check with you before the next time I order, so as you can get credit.

"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?
Yes, Yes I would, Also you lucky B@stard. I wish I could get my hands on that many.
You should just go back tonight and get the picks, you don't want a tool mob on your hands do you? we don't use Pitch forks and lanterns. We come with 3/4" drive power bars and Oxy fuel torch's.
My Snap On Guy does not have any used tools or box's, Makes me sad.

You have much to learn, young grasshopper, i will teach you.
I recently acquired a new orange set and a new (in plastic wrap) yellow set, oh and a new green ratcheting one. As well as many many others. Expect to see some new ratchet transplants too soon!

Excellent candidate for a re-do, well worth that to me. No funds though.

I think I already know who will buy it from me for more. That guy who bought my kennedy chest for $50.

Here's the new home box, she looks pathetically empty. It's not organized yet, but this will have to do. I need more aluminum angle for the socket drawer, get all the foam wrench/screwdriver holders in, shadow all the pliers/hammers, etc.

It's a toolbox. It is freshly waxed for you, though.

Here is the hole thread on them.
http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32312
1/4" green soft grip = th936-12g $4.90
3/8" green soft grip = fh936-12g $6.25
1/2" green soft grip = sh936-12g $7.85
If you want red, just get rid of the G. If you want orange, put an O instead of the G.

Had the camera out again....
Thought I would go ahead and finish out pictures of the bottom of this craftsman box. If you like to treasure hunt old tools from pictures, you should be entertained...

I think your looking at the wrong one.I beleive he's refering to the looong homemade 1/2" dr that Nissan made from a HF breaker bar and a broken torque wrench.It's at the bottom of the pic against the edge of the drawer.

Depends on which one you are talking about.
If you're referring to the green handled one, this applies, but mine is the older 936.
Otherwise, this is spot on. Craftsman torque wrench + HF breaker bar.

A little rant...just have to point this out...
It's not Eastwing; it's Estwing!
I use their shingler's hatchet. It's awesome and holds up to A LOT of abuse.
Geez man, every time I turn around you are trying to correct me. I guess you finally got me on this one.fordbroncodave
