The Green Snap-on Tools ****

Merry Green Christmas to me!!

Do you think you'll be using your index finger on the trigger, or your middle finger? Just curious.

I use the index finger by habit... I just tried it with the middle finger, works good, but then I cover some of the cooling holes...

after looking for a replacement to the set I bought in 2003-2005 for a 3/8 that was stolen when my service truck was broken into, i finally found one. i'm pretty sure I paid more for the used one, than I did new, but for looking for one for over 15 years, I didn't much care. I also forgot how ****** those 36 tooth ratchets are...yet they were so good at the time...lol. I've switched them all over to flex head fine tooth ratchets. Probably my favorite handle ever made....

to those that have never seen them... they are the same shape as a soft grip, but they are a hard grip. they were a limited release in 2004-5ish and only came in course tooth straight handles. I bought the green set, and my brother bought the orange set. we both worked at the same company and were working a job outside of chicago. both of our service trucks were broken into one night at a holiday in in willowick. we both lost our 3/8 rare ratchets that night.... I'm still on the hunt for an orange 3/8 for him.

Re: The Green Tools ****

Those ratchets are cool, never seen one before, so thanks for posting.

Those are very cool. I like the regular hard handle shape but I might track one down for the cool factor... have a PN?

They haven't been in production for a long time.

Still would like to save a search for the PN on ebay.

FH936 was the 3/8 from 2005. have no idea what the 1/4" and 3/8" were. I'm pretty sure that is the standard part number for the time... i do know that I could not buy the handle, or the ratchet a year after they were introduced when mine was stolen.



picked this up from a dealer last week. couldn't pass it up for as little as it cost. not sure on the exact age, but its early 90's. Made in canada with the old style lock. had one of these I bought new in the 90's and forgot how stout these little boxes are.

 

[IPFreely]

Pry bar set came with the new style hammer that is flat on both ends. SO man got 2 in each color.
Theres a green 1/4 locking flex quick release ratchet hiding too.

Nice!

I really like those Snap On Torx drivers.

So many manufacturers end up putting really tiny handles on the small sizes.

I know the small sizes won’t take as much torque, but my hand stays the same size whatever size driver I use, and Snap On are one of the few makers to put decent size handles on, down to about T10!

I'm addicted to the green. Here is my new 68" Epiq. Finally got it to replace my red KRL.

 

[Buster21]

I've had the red pocket screwdrivers they have had for years, then found out they make green.

Whoa, cool!! How did you get them?

1/2" torque wrench...

 

[Jazzy_Jeff]

Found this forum looking for green tools. Just decided to start collecting all green since I needed a box for a buddies shop I've been working on some of his customer cars in between working at my own shop. As of a few weeks ago I had no green tools. And as of today..










Have a split top extreme green cart on the way as well. I'm going to end up switching out my storm grey one I just got and maybe stick this one in my engine assembly room.

Awesome! Now that's a big (expensive) haul.
