The Green Snap-on Tools ****

[BHH]

^^^ very nice! Still kicking myself in the *** for the full set of 4 in the case I passed up for $50 a year or so ago. Had no idea they were so hard to come by.

That was me that bought those!

 

[BHH]

Picked up these unicorns the other day!

You are missing one!!

Don't think they were the same ones.....yours came from eBay, correct? I remember seeing those. the ones I stupidly passed up on were through a friend of mine. He had a few new sets for some reason or another and IIRC none ever saw eBay.

I was at lowe's today and seen these.I couldn't pass up for $8

Yup my bad.

Those are the weirdest philips I have seen.

 

[Trucky]

I would surmise that it is to keep costs low. They aren't precisely machined, that's for sure. I also heard that the tips are rather weak compared to good brands, but hey, for 8$, I wouldn't be expecting Snappy-esque durability either.

My dealer has a pick set and a instinct handle starter switch. Think ill have him set them aside

yes. and its very difficult. it took me since february to get it. it was only part of a 2012 promo package they had which has like 8 knives in it, all of them overpriced cheap ones except this one, a red one like it, and a red speed bump. my snap on man finally managed to track one down from a regional guy.

FYI - A green Snap On and green Matco (or Mac) Boxes are for sale in Las Vegas on Craigslist.

wow i'm jealous, been trying to track some of them down for a while with little luck, got the shallow 1/4 drive metric one in green, but that's it, want the matchign deep one, and the imperial sizes

the metric and 3/8 drive ones in particular are scarce. why snap on decided to discontinue them ill never know

 

[BHH]

It is a magnetic "tray" that is really shallow. It has a metal back coering the magnet that you can remove and then the whole tray can be stuck to the inside of the toolbox lid!

Yeah you don't see the metric deep was like finding a unicorn.

I should not be looking at this post when my snap on dealer is coming in an hour. I am a huge greenie as well. Pry bars, shirts, hats, screwdrivers, I want the new roll cab, I have the plier sets. Bout to look to see how much the green soft handles are today to swap.

 

[butcher21]

here's a picture of my new tool box it's a kra 2422 with black trim and a armor edge top

 

[jeffmoss26]

Beautiful!

1670cfgrn but good luck lol...

 

[emrock32]

So after seeing the green handle ratchets, and I was already a green fan, I asked my dealer today about the handles for the soft grip ratchets. Ordered them all for all 6 of my ratchets. He only had one in 3/8 in stock so i swapped it today!

 

[twincam00]

new green:

SO FHX80
SO nutdriver
Matco dead blows
Protoco Wrech Racks
blow guns

 

[jeffmoss26]

What size is the nutdriver? I thought the handles and shanks were the same color?

I changed some new red handles to green. That is a pill of a job! No chance of reusing the old handle.

 

[twincam00]

11/32"

They do come with the same color shaft. I bought the standard and metric sets and didnt like the look of the rubber "shank covers" so I just cut them off with a razor blade to expose the nice chrome underneath

 

[jeffmoss26]

Nice!

 

[Altec]

Fresh off the truck, well on Tuesday...

 

[jeffmoss26]

New logo on the handle...

 

[BHH]

That is a brand new logo design on the green Hard Handle. I wonder if that means more Green down the pipe?

 

[csargents1546]

To the snap on truck owners. Are the hard handles available still? Asked my SO rep, said he could not get them. I would love to change over my black hard handle a green one.

boil some water and stick the soft grips in the water for like 3-4 minutes and pull off with a rag, doesn't affect the handle at all, slides right off

 

[twincam00]

they are still availible, these should be the correct P/N's

I just ordered the SDD8R1RG a couple days ago off their website, free shipping

its the old logo and yes it is stamped USA

 

[5mall5nail5]

Got this today - first SO tool

Brand new!

 

[twincam00]

is that new off the truck? the PN for green doesnt work online so maybe its a truck-only item?
