Awesome Organization HACKS On This Toolbox Tour

[@jvke.p]

As a DIY enthusiast who’s constantly building his at home set up, I freaking love these videos. the only drawback is the damage they do to the wallet 😂

[@ToolBoxTour]

I’m glad you enjoy the videos! Also - I have the same problem with the wallet! 😅

[@Flatfourmotorworks]

Every time, it never fails. Several purchases after watching 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@delusion_904]

Yea true, however the tools you buys make you money

[@jvke.p]

@@delusion_904 true actually. When you have better tools, even as a DIY’er… you can save money by doing all the repairs yourself. And money saved is money earned

Harbor Freight man. I have harbor freight to snapon and I abuse the hell out if my 3/8s icon sockets and they've lasted about 2 years and still runnin

[@airheadedits9800]

As a tech who’s only been in the industry a year or so I love these videos. Please don’t stop they are so informative if I wanna know what to buy or what not to buy. Thank you sir

[@ToolBoxTour]

I’m glad you enjoy them! I have no plans to stop 👍

[@COBRO98]

My advice to you after 20 years is that a tool or item is only as good as it's warranty, the guy in the video spent 5x as much money as he needed to for re-branded tools(they're all made in China now even Snap-On). I have watched countless newbies go into life-long debt just to have everything name brand, don't make this mistake. The bearded guy in the video will be 50 before he pays all of that off.

[@Sean-bp6xb]

Thanks for another. Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉

[@BellaRocko]

Nice box, awesome tools, and another great and interesting mechanic Connor. I love Connor's resourcefulness.

[@MarzNet256]

Good call keeping tools in drawers instead of cases. It's easier to find stuff and faster to grab and put away and saves a ton of space.

[@coreymartin-wk1fi]

Huge shout-out to everyone that's shared their setups so far!!!

Interesting to see use case adjustments to what people use, how they store it and what they prioritize. I have a lot of tools, mostly hyper organized in foam. The funny thing about tools I always tell people when they ask why I have so many is "I'd only buy what I needed if I knew in advance what that was". So in my case, I tend to be value driven with what I buy, I beat my tools hard (everything has 3 uses to me) and expect to break them. Anything I break I buy a much higher quality version. Oddly though, the cheap stuff these days holds up INSANELY well, I rarely break anything so who knows.

[@rshinn8776]

Agreed. As someone who owns multiple snap on ratchets, and turns wrenches every day, it's not worth spending that much. I abuse my budget tools and rarely break anything.

[@aberodriguez4149]

Great tour and thanks for sharing. This was like taking a tour down candy lane.

[@Eamador3]

Sees any tool.. WHOOOAAAAAA

[@JREfunnies]

I got the extendable pry bar gearwrench branded... I found it at Homedepot on the clearance shelf for 20 bucks.

[@ToolBoxTour]

Nice! That’s one hell of a deal!

[@james5274]

Excellent video, love Connor's box. That add on top drawer makes a huge difference. I used to have a Matco full bank cart in the silver vein finish it was great because it was so durable and never showed how dirty it was. Excellent video Dustin 👍👍

[@ToolBoxTour]

Thanks James! Yeah I really think that finish resists scratches a lot better than a regular powder coating on most boxes.

[@ryan.mullen]

Another great video 👍. This channel has cost me so much money. Every week I buy something I see. 😂

[@ToolBoxTour]

Haha thanks for watching Ryan

[@coreymartin-wk1fi]

Sweet set up Connor! That brake bleeder set is awesome! Great video thanks for sharing.

[@markm0000]

There’s so many cool ideas here. I also don’t like blow molded cases and I stack my pliers on each other. I never knew about those Husky dividers at 11;02. That would save a ton of space, stop clutter, and keep stuff separate with complete adjustment.

[@ToolBoxTour]

Yeah I’ve never seen anyone take a fuel pressure tester out of the blow mold before so I thought that was kind of cool. And yeah! - those dividers are something I’m going to invest in!

Gearwrench also offers that adjustable pry bar. I have that one and a bigger one and paid less for both than Mac's list price on the small one. Looks like it's exactly the same.

[@ToolBoxTour]

Good to know! Thanks for watching!

[@williamuskoski1385]

Matco doesnt make any tools. They are all rebrands

[@mike_0213]

That Matco tool box is freaking nice! I highly doubt that I will EVER own one, not at $15K, maybe a used one someday. I am in the market for either a bigger box or a tool cart. Have not yet decided on what way to go. Thanks for all the tool box tours man! I have really enjoyed watching them.

[@jasonhoyt8232]

I'm going to start sharing your videos on FB if that's OK. I am an HVAC mechanic, so most of my work is in the field; but I still freaking love shop set ups. Will you please start to do videos of various types of field mechanics' truck setups? Like heavy equipment mechanics, HVAC, etc?

[@ToolBoxTour]

Share away! I would love to do some HVAC and other setups. I have quite the line up, so I’m working through them as I speak. Thanks for watching Jason!

[@advancedleveldiagnostics]

Really nice setup! Thanks for sharing! I would appreciate it if you would put all the links on the left side because when they are on the right the subscribe button sometimes blocks the price. You make the nicest tool box tours on you tube!

[@ToolBoxTour]

Ohh! Good to know! Thanks for pointing that out. I only put them on the right when the left side is really bright and hard to see the numbers, but I will figure something else out. Thanks for watching!

[@todayletsbuild2153]

I like those magnet dividers. I watched this video this morning and they have been on my mind since. I think I will make a bunch for a video DIY project. I would be happy to ship you some if you like. I will email you and touch base. This will be a winter project.

[@Pmemox]

If your ever around New Jersey I can show you some crazy setup!!

[@tone4043]

⁠ I know I’m a bit late to this tool box tour episode but I am wondering if you know what model or type of pliers are at the 19:12 mark please? Any info is appreciated and thanks for the cool content!

[@danfreeman9079]

Few have seen tool organization like the USAF operational maintenance wing flying multiple aircraft including the all titanium SR-71 Blackbird. A locked tool crib will contain all the roll away tool boxes and portable line kit tool boxes as well a lock "chit box". A tool monitor assigned to work in the tool crib signs out tool boxes to workers. Each individual will be assigned ten chits with with a number stamped in them hung on a row of hooks next to their name. Upon every turnover of the custody of each tool box a full inspection will be made with a inventory list. Each and every separate tool and tool bit will be inscribed with the number of the tool kit box. Each and every tool will be set in a cut out of neoprene foam inside the tool box drawers going a quick accurate way to see if a tool is missing. The inventory of each item in the tool kits and tool crib boxes will be inspected at each shift change and signed for if accepted by the incoming tool crib monitor as well as a monthly inventory update at squadron command level. Before a portable tool kit is removed from the shop it will be inspected. Upon completion of a task on the aircraft the tool box will be inventoried again. Upon return to the shop the tool box will be inspected again. If it is found that a tool is missing, maintenance control will be immediately contacted and all flight-line activities will be halted, supervisors notified and personal with supervisors will back track every move conducting a full inspection until the tool is found. Covering up an incident of a lost tool could result in criminal charges. Each time a tool is removed from it box by another worker than who has signed custody of the kit must retrieve a chit from the tool room and place it in the cut out where the tool rest. In the case of the SR-71 titanium aircraft, full duplicate tool kits specific for use on specific aircraft must be used. This is due to cross contamination of corrosive elements used on other aircraft that could contaminate the titanium. For example, an apex screw driver tip used on aircraft with cadmium plated screws and then used on titanium screws will cause the titanium to become "Poisoned" or cracked due use at elevated temperatures at mach 3+ flight. It sounds complicate, it is, but once the system is established it is critical to operations and national security.

[@ToolBoxTour]

Dan, what a comment to leave!! That’s so interesting to hear how incredibly careful they are with tool inventory (which I guess they have to). Another subscriber commented on another video about some of the strict tool inventory policies while working in the military. He mentioned new mechanics would get hazed by hiding a tool from their box so they would have to shut everything down.

[@ragincajungarage]

I do like the setup of that toolbox

[@Shouk02]

Seeing so many guys saying “bigger wrenches” when referring to like 1 1/4” is kinda funny to me. My set goes from 1/4” to 2” without any size skips. And I use those bigger sizes more then I ever thought I would.

[@nathankisner8332]

Me too, but guess what I needed last week? A gotdamn 2-3/16" combo wrench. Guess I will be going up to 3" now. Might just get sluggers. What you think?

Why would anyone buy all Snap On Torque wrench’s? They are way too much money! I’m sure it is because of the tool truck credit, but how many years does it take to pay for all Snap On! I am a 37 year tech and sure some special Snap On tools are necessary, but sure not every socket and torque wrench s, and Snap On Battery tools aren’t any better than my Milwaukee power tools! I have both and no way is Snap On power tools worth what they charge! Less torque than Milwaukee!
