My Snap On Collection

[MrMark]

Man, I'd love to have that yellow ratcheting screwdriver, I think that would be all I would use. Those Yellow command a big premium it seems. All the OP has done is put together an awesome collection of all the colors ever made.

Please show more.

 

[fordbroncodave]

damn.... that collection is something to be proud of! very nice dude

 

[Hlidskjalf]

Another thing I'd like to mention, just because someone has an unused tool collection doesn't necessarily mean that they don't use tools.

For all we know this guy could be a pro, but these pictures are dedicated to his collectibles. Collecting tools is a cool hobby anyway.

 

[bchee]

You know how we always post links to ebay auctions that always go for some outrageous price?
You always wonder who these people are that are buying this stuff. Maybe its the OP.
I'm sure there are many more screwdrivers, cuz these are just the "favorites."

 

[bobemmerich]

That is one hell of a collection! WOW! I like to see tools in thier original packages/storage holders. I think it looks cool. To the OP-Awesome collection!

 

[mikevango]

**** yea! I would have this many snap on screwdrivers if I could afford them. Awesome.

 

[wellstig1]

That is a crazy collection of hard handles. I'm surprised to not see any of the picks and small drivers.

 

[Busted Bolts]

nice set up and welcome to GJ, hope to see more of your collection. I have a question. I noticed you have a green hard handle alone in most of your pics of each drawer. do you have one in each drawer or was that for display purposes?

 

[Builder302]

very nice collection!

Here is what eh wrote at the very end of his first post: "I put the green handle in the pics so no one thought i used someone elses pics."

 

[JeremyManning]

cool collection, this site only helps to fuel a collection so happy hunting, I know I have a much better tool collection since joining, I had never heard of cornwell before joining and my new 3/8 ratchet is now my favorite

Oh and the MAC ratchet looks out of place in that drawer full of snappy ratchets I could give it a new home if you would like

 

[Snapaholic]

The five black handles in the first pic are all reversable blades, the blades are all above them.

I never thought about that until you brought that up, I bet that drawer is just as impressive

Nice collection. I like it alot.

It's kind of surprising to see such negative reactions to a collection of tools on a tool forum though.

 

[warmpancakes]

wow, need to hang them on the wall not hidden in the tool box

 

[glenmore]

Uncle!

 

[littletoes]

uncle!

what glenmore said!

Nice.

 

[Flash21]

Welcome Snapaholic, it seems you have selected the perfect user name. I love the collection, I really like the variety in colors. Are you trying to get a set in every color? Are there any you are missing?

I was surprised to see the dark green and maroon, those are pretty rare.

The rarest set I ever had was a 5pc 'slimline' SDS* series set, NOS in Red....Do you have any SDS series in the collection?

 

[cj610]

That's a really staggering collection! I'm sure it took some time to accumulate.

Very nice collection. The criticism is unfounded imo. People collect all kinds of things. I'm not sure I'd want to collect that many Snap On tools, but that's not the point, it's his collection and it's very impressive at that. I know people that spend thousands going on vacations every year, I've spent many thousands on stock car racing over years, so whatever floats your boat. Snapaholic thanks for sharing!

 

[trout]

holy **** I would love to have that ratchet collection.
To hell with the haters.

 

[CRTDI]

I just noticed your updated pics. Your ratchet fetish is quite disturbing. That collection alone is truly amazing.

 

[CD1]

A very impressive collection. I love all those ratchets.

Welcome to GJ. Don't let the detracters ruin your experience here, Bull and the other Mods will take care of them.

 

[dlfiene]

WOW you have quite an amazing collection there Snapaholic.
Welcome aboard!

 

[north]

Thanks for the added pictures. Those ratchets...

 

[eyeboltman]

Bull good point about the post ... I LOVE TOOLS ! I wonder if he will take a 100.00 $ for all the screwdrivers ???

 

[Davi]

Personally I love the collection and if I could afford it I would probably do the same, however I would maybe buy less screw drivers so I could diversify my collection a little bit more.

Edited: disregard the last bit, I just noticed you had updated the pics

 

[HookWorse]

I just don't get the "if I don't think that way, you shouldn't either" attitude of some. So he has more tools than he will use. Who cares? If I was able to, I might too! Good for him!

Another thing that gets me is if someone new asks a question, a member ALWAYS has to point out "there have already been many threads about this".

Ok...so maybe there have. Have you ever tried to use the search? It picks one word out of a subject and pulls a hundred threads that have that word in it. So do I have infinite time to spend going through thread after thread, hoping one MIGHT answer my specific question?

Yet I see postings that are so stupid in my opinion. I have two choices. I can respect that someone has chosen to post something for whatever reason he deems fit, and keep my mouth shut, or open it and prove my ignorance.

Hope you show us the rest of your collection it's been very nice so far. Welcome to Garage Journal.

I counted at least 4 (maybe 5) boxes - so far.

Astounding collection! Snapaholic - keep those pics coming!

 

[48548]

Nice collection.... I wish I was a paid wrencher so I could have nice stuff like that also.... Welcome to the site as well.

 

[hammlm]

Your collection is impressive and inspiring. Don't let other people's insecurity and need to bloviate hold you back. You are proud of that collection and this is definitely the place to show it off.

 

[meissen]

Great collection! Welcome to the site!

 

[lalaland]

I just saw the rest of the pics

 

[JoeMopar]

Snapaholic can you show us your air tools?

 

[TheDukeofDeere]

I love just browsing through the pictures, over and over! Very sweet collection, a "Snapaholic" you are indeed!!!!

Got a question, in the drawer your Stainless Craftsman ratchet is in (sweet CMan, btw), there is a destroyed comfort grip on what appears to be a long beam 936 series Snap On ratchet. What happened to it? Just curious......

 

[DRhodes]

It's really inspiring to look at those snapaholic. It makes my collection look like a childs lol. Keep taking more pics ^^.

[midnightcruise]

Damn... nice collection! How do you choose which one to use? I have my goto tools and the backups (which are usually nicer then the goto tools). I use the goto tools on other peoples cars and my daily drivers. but the nicer tools are reserved for my show car.

Welcome to the board and keep the pics coming

 

[Theloniousmonk]

fkn hell... that's a collection worthy of much respect. well done!
