Tools!

[Emcee gsxtc]

craftsman mostly when i have some how afforded it

stanley when its two in the morning and walmart is the only place open

we have gone through a lot of tools both snap on and craftsmen you just cant have someone my size cranking a 7 mm, on the built turbo cav motor when we put that in, we averaged 3 broken tools a day, but anything less than lifetime guaranteed goes bye bye fast, on my gsx right now we have a broken tools bucket that includes Thorsen and a bunch of other cheap brands my 2 cents

Craftsman of course. I do have a few specialty Snap On tools that come in handy once in a while. And I get some sockets and adapters from Checker because they're close by and they also have a lifetime warranty. I used to break 1/2 to 3/8th drive adapters all the time til I ponied up for a full set of 1/2 drive metric sockets. They handle 600 ft/lbs+ nicely. :banana:

Oh yeah it can. I am stronger with my breaker bar than my impact at 120 psi.

I have to go with Snap-On for most of mine. I have Mac, Craftsman, Snap-On and some cheap tools in my Snap-On box. For specialty tools and electronic tools I go with Mac or Snap-On. I have broken almost every brand of tool listed (by the way you forgot SK Tools). No tool is invincible. I use air tools, ratchets, screwdrivers and a huge assortment of pliers and snap ring pliers.

As far as boxes go, I love my Snap-On box. The more weight you put in the drawers, the easier they slide in. If it were for my home garage it would be something like a Craftsman or Husky or something else that's cheaper. But at work, I make my living out of my toolbox so I need something that will hold up and retain it's value. If I want to sell my box right now, I could get most if not all of what I bought it for.

I have mostly craftsman. You can find some great deals on Ebay. I do use stanley ratchets though, they look exactly like a snap-on, but aren't quite as smooth. Lifetime guarantee at fleet farm/walmart too. If I were using them all the time I would get mostly Mac. The Snap-on ratches do have smaller teeth, so they will ratchet in a tight spot when some others won't. They also have thin walled sockets which fit in some tight spots, but tend to break more easily. SK makes the best sockets I have seen as far as strength.

I have craftsman and kennedy boxes. The price was right on the craftsman. My brother-in-law just got a steeltek box from Sam's Club, it is bad ass!! Stainless steel , 40" wide with ball bearing slides and taller than me for under $1k! I really want one.

You need a better impact, mine does 600 ft/lbs at 120 psi. I can get more with a breaker bar, but even they can break above that.

Craftsman, cause I'ant paying for them.
