My first Snap On set.
SHLF80a
FHLF80
FHF80
THLF72
I got them used for $280 on Craigslist. Did I do okay?
You did pretty well, now you just need to change the handles to green and the universe will be in balance again.
I'm a bit behind.
Knipex 09 12 240 Electrician's Pliers. Got these from Amazon Warehouse Deals. Listed as Very Good condition. They are spotless. I'm positive they were never used.
The jaws actually look more like a Engineer Neijisaurus screw removal plier or something. I bet these could turn out a stripped screw.
Got some impact adaptors for my upcoming challenge of seeing how much the M12 3/8" Fuel Impact can do on suspension work.
Sunex Spindle Nut Socket Set for afforementioned suspension work. I was slowly accumulating the spindle nut size sockets for like 18$ a piece. This kit was only 67$.
And... saw this on sale at Lowe's for 9$ and thought "What the hell? I'll grab it".
AvE did a video canning it as useless. I thought I'd give it my own shot at the common tasks for a dremel and try using a cut off disc, a burr, a grinding stone, and cutting some drywall with it. I've already got a bigger corded dremel, and the ultimate power (Fein SuperCut AFSC18) so this is more just for fun.

Just got the Sunex 4 piece 3/8 impact wobble extension set along with a Sunex 12mm 12 point swivel socket. Got that particular socket for getting the 12 point loctited driveshaft bolts out of Ford 8.8 rear ends. Had to pull the trans on my Ranger the other week to replace the slave and the driveshaft bolts were a bear to get out.

Thoughts on the impact extensions? I've been flip flopping back and forth between those and Grey Pneumatic's locking set. Might end up getting both, since the Grey Pneumatic ones are locking and not wobble.

In all honesty I haven't gotten a chance to use them yet. Every evening after work I've been riding out to the hospital to visit my dad who had both knees replaced two weeks ago, so I haven't had much shop time other than a quick restore of a Columbian vise. They have a hefty, quality feel to them and I'll definitely report back once I've put them thru their paces.
These are the first impact extensions I've had, so I don't have anything to compare them to in that regard. If these work out I'll get the 1/2" 4 piece set as well.

I know where you got those from....
Pretty good price on them imo. I'm going to pick up a single myself.

Do you guys even use them? I have a handful in my box that i've never used, don't even know where they came from.
It's kinda like a knife... keep one in your pocket and you'd be surprised how often you find little uses... and I don't mean as just a screwdriver like the manual says...

They live in the box with everything else, in the 5+ years since they first appeared i've never used them. Maybe i'm just overrun with other screwdrivers to use.

I have used it for everything but screws. I mostly use it to pry electrical connectors and clips and sometimes scrape things. Break open seals on bottles with it. I have even scraped gunk from under my fingernails with it

Picked up a few things Monday. Milwaukee 10-in-1 Ratcheting screwdriver with bonus 8-in-1, Flexzilla inflator, and Channellock Locknut pliers.
Have a few electrical projects coming up, so the drivers will join my dedicated electrical tools. The pliers make dealing with metal electrical boxes so much easier (which is every box in my garage).

More metric wrenches. I was surprised it had a nice roll, though I doubt I will use it.

I've been wanting these for a while now. Finally find them for under $40 so I bit the bullet and ordered a set for myself. Now to find a deal on the 7" version.

Just got this little pair. 5".
These will go in my work backpack most likely although I can think of lots of uses for them. Idk maybe they will go in the shed tool box. Ugh I should have ordered two sets.

Wow, the depth of field in this picture is about as shallow as it gets...
You will love the Knipex pliers wrench!

SO 3/8 Semi-Deep AF set.
Free 3/8 ratchet. He tried to push a QR in my hand. Told him to cancel my account and never return. So got an F80 instead.
Chewing away at my $15k a year, work subsidized tool allowance.

Well, if you're never going to use it, and might be interested in letting it go for a small price that isn't ridiculous, toss me a PM sometime. I find them quite useful as I need all my stuff to be very mobile while I go to school and have to cart tools back and forth between home and school.
