Nice tool collection. I was digging in my dads shed a while back when I noticed that he has my original Craftsman roller cabinet which I bought used off the Snap-On truck. That was my first ever tool box. Brought back a lot of memories of turning wrenches in the gas station when I finished high school.

It’s complete idiocy. Even if he’s making money with his tools, there’s no way to justify that kind of money for a freaking tool box. That $40K could be invested and turned into retirement level cash.

[@darrell3118]

@@aeromedical6776 I was in the Automotive Autobody / ReFinish industry for 46 years , ( retired 2 years ago ) I BOUGHT a FEW SnapOn products , only to find out about 20-30 years later they wouldn't honor the life time replacement when they finally wore out!! I always liked Craftsman tools myself . I Just had a cheap tool box and , I am retired and some of these guys are STILL paying for their tool bills and still working ....LOL SnapOn have been ripping people off for 50 years now !!! Worked at one dealership , and a mechanic got talked into paying $5500 for a new box ( this was 1989) and the dumbass could never get to work because his vehicle would break down all the time , I asked him why he didnt buy a better car with that money and his answer was this made him money ....LMAO !!! Some of these guys had a $200 -500 payment a month .

[@BradKwfc]

I used to be an aircraft mechanic. I worked at a small airline where no one made more than 60k/yr. Most of those guys had Snap-On boxes that were 14k plus all the tools inside. They were making monthly payments. It's no wonder why I only made it 2 months before I quit. I don't belong in the 'stupid financial decisions to impress people crowd.' If you have the money, I get it. The people I worked with definitely didn't have the money.

Those organizers are actually the nicest looking ones I’ve ever seen anywhere ever. They’re not even that expensive either. $25 for the wrench organizer. More pricey for the socket trays but still seems worth it. It looks like impacts will fit the trays too?

[@TadpoleTrainer]

@@ToolBoxTourprobably easier to keep clean too! Lately I’ve been using magnetic trays. They have their upsides but keeping them clean isn’t one of them. I’m constantly blowing out metal shavings from them. Aluminum would help with that and the weight is probably enough to hold everything in place

That old cat ratchet he showed is made by Proto. I can tell just by looking at it. I have a Proto one identical to it.

[@shitindawoodsbear2798]

Cat has a premium line (snapper head) and economy line (proto). The combo cat wrenches have the flank drive plus teeth but thicker handle..way nicer than snap on. Also cat doesnt have all the snap on tools , not even close. Ive been buying cat branded snap on tools for over 30 years now. They even have the original short "banned" wobbly impacts

[@kornicopiakids112]

In order to warranty a CAT branded Snap On Tool you have to travel to a local CAT dealer and hopefully swap the old one for a new one. And sometimes the dealer doesn't have the tool in stock. So you can wait, go home and come back at a later date. You can also buy Snap On tools from their industrial rep. Actual Snap On Tools are 50% less than the truck dealer.

[@nathankisner8332]

I just bought 3/8 cat socket set from Snap On, off the truck. The cat number comes up in Snap On online catolog. How would warrenty work? My dealer asked how I found the number.

[@devinc5857]

Awsome video! Tip for your jump box, mine did the same thing, it had a safety feature where it would not energize the leads, if there wasn’t a small amount of electricity sensed. Mine had a relay and a small circuit board located in a plastic housing on the leads. I opened the housing and removed the relay/safety circuit and hard wired the leads to the connector. Not it’s live as soon as I plug it in. Hope this helps

[@engelericj]

Set up an Account at a truck parts dealership. Everything Cat is cheaper through a dealer. Cat itself will not sell you anything at less than "MSRP". Discounts are much better through their dealers, if you set up an account and do some sweet talking to the parts guy ... or high volume of sales.

[@cknorris3644]

I worked at a place where we built military drop boxes and filled them. The tools were Snap-On but sometimes the tools would have a different (cheaper) name on them. I cant for the life of me remember the other name, it wasn't a common recognized name though. So either a cheap tool manufacturer makes Snap-On, or Snap-on also sells their tools under a cheaper name.

[@WurledPeas]

Honestly, good for this guy being able to afford a hobby like that. I was a diesel and auto dealership mechanic for years. The first half of my career I worked out of an old Mac economizer top and bottom box until the cabinet on the rollaway cracked at the upper corners from rolling it over rough pavement and Mac offered me the original price off a larger roller. I still use that roller and the old top box 30+ years later. They were made by Stanley for Mac before Mac merged with them. The two boxes combined, my carts, all of my tools cost me about what his roller alone cost him. I still have just about every receipt. That box is stuffed full of Snap-on, Mac, Matco, Cornwell, Craftsman, Blue Point, Stanley, Blackhawk, Great Neck, Plumb, Williams, Proto, Lisle, OTC, Estwing, Icon, Quinn, Bauer. You name it, it’s in those boxes. I bought plenty from the trucks but also pawn shops, swap meets, auctions, eBay. I bought a lot of high end tools at the DRMO auctions. I bought a couple houses through the course my wrenching career using the older of those tools. I think that green and black box and its unused contents cost him more than my first house in Colorado. In fact, I’m sure of it.

My dad had some woodworking tools and as he started to get older. He started giving everything to my brother. After my dad died, there was a couple things left that I let my brother in law have. I didn't want anything of his, because he didn't want me to have anything. Anytime my parents had anything they were getting rid of. They would first offer it to my brother, then my brother in law, then my sister and finally it would go in the newspaper and sell it to a complete stranger.
