Right on! Nothing like that first Snap-on tool in your hand. :bounce:

(I love my other brands too though)

Nice purchase. Its all either uphill(more tools) or downhill (no more money) from here.Wait until you buy something off the truck the first time. I assume you havent been on a truck b/c you would have bought something by now. :beer:

My first SO tool was a 6pt 17mm wrench to break loose a nut on my Volvo. My second was a big *** crow's foot wrench that I promptly took an angle grinder to. lol.

They're nice, but nothing sacred IMO. I like the way my Hazet socket and hex bits feel in my hand more than full polish sockets (like SO). Ratchets? Gimmie an SK any day (or an HF knock off if I've got to make do with the SO style). Screwdrivers? PB Swiss all the way. Snap-On... psssh. :D

You are moving in the right direction. Next step is to work on resisting your urges to go to you know where. :thumbup:

Nothing like the feel of a quality tool, enjoy the downward spiral and lightening wallet

My first was a F80 ratchet. I just recently got a set of semi-deep 3/8 drive sockets in metric.

The expenditure will continue to grow.

Hazet make some of the best out there. Their socket drivers are second-to-none.

Awesome man, my dad just gave me a 1/2" ratchet (the I beam style), something he had laying around at work. Beats paying for the stuff, which unfortunaltly we all have done many a times. I am just like you, I want more ratchets, watching one on flea-bay right now......
