Master Honda Tech with a MONSTER MATCO Setup

[@GreaseMonkeyDK]

Hey!!! That looks familiar!! ❤ Thanks so much for coming out and giving me a chance to share my setup with everyone, I had a blast! This might be the first video I’ve watched that I didn’t have to go buy something afterwords! Thanks for all the kind words everyone!!

[@ToolBoxTour]

So glad you invited me out! It was a great time 🍻

[@heathsteel]

I think @ToolBoxTour needs to do a tour of @GreaseMonkeyDK man cave as well! Love the 3D printed solutions…nice setup 👍

[@davecarlson8275]

Love the organization, awesome setup!

[@jeremyc61]

Do you have a link for those clips on Amazon?

[@GreaseMonkeyDK]

@@jeremyc61which clips would that be?

[@googledunce9872]

I can't get myself to watch a movie anymore, but I'll sit and watch a 1.5 hour long video of a guy showing all the tools he's bought for Hondas.

[@Rudimentary007]

I agree.👍👍🇺🇸

[@ianloyd6384]

😂😂😂 me too

[@g-man3265]

Hahaha 😂so true! I was just telling someone that last week. Just can't sit and watch a movie but I could have watched another hour of this one... only issue I sent 250$ on Amazon as i was watchin...😂😂 when we going to the man cave shop??

[@mazeclayton]

Shit! I felt that

[@J.G.Romo.W.]

Facts!! Haha

[@TheDjej20]

This was my favorite Toolbox Tour. I really like that he is not brand agnostic and is willing to buy tools that just work.

[@deltasi7270]

He’s a rare man . Get what works for him . I noticed he also said what doesn’t, but wasn’t patronising. I like that in any mechanic or tech . Even the ones who they their at the top of their field because of the brand of car dealer they work for . Boutique Technicians I call them .

[@Chevy_Mafia]

This guy seems like a genuinely good guy that loves his job and has a lot of passion for his work. Thanks for the tour it gave me a lot of ideas

[@americanautomobiletech]

I can’t believe this channel only has 34K subs. The amount of useful information I’ve learned from guys like this is amazing. What a great community! Thanks for all the great videos!!

[@commonsenseisdeadin2024]

The amount of tools in my wishlist because of this channel is insane 😂

[@koeseman1]

What an awesome guy, really enjoyed this tour... One of my favorites so far

[@ToolBoxTour]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Reign_Maxence]

This is the most honest and genuine automotive technician I have ever seen. This guys is awesome. Godspeed sir.

[@tomhuish6370]

This tour is my favourite so far, this guy is full of knowledge and his box is full of tools... Perfect

[@jfries6676]

my man single handedly bringing the word "fabulous" to the working class lexicon

[@markm0000]

That comedic “I’m a lumberjack” song comes to mind. Haha

[@GreaseMonkeyDK]

I told my wife I felt like I said that word too much after the video. Would make a good drinking game though!

[@hit8iron]

After 34 years as a tech and at least 75k in tools. A new tool is added to my wish list after every one of your videos lol. Now I now I need to buy banana jack retractable test leads. Thank you! Cool video.

[@clickbaitab5741]

How much does an experienced mechanic like you make for it to be a worthy investment to buy so many tools. It’s got to be six figures to be worth it i would assume

[@ToolBoxTour]

Glad to help with the wish list!

[@russellpottenger8584]

I’ve been working on cars for over 50 years. Still buying tools to this day. My point is you invest in yourself and in your trade It takes many years to build up tool collections that you see on this channel and others

[@ej0080]

Ya know we’ve all probably seen 90% of these tools but what makes it so entertaining is guys like this and how clean and organized their set ups are , you can tell they really are passionate about their trade . It’s exciting just to hear him explain the same exact tools I have in my box lol

[@Toyotatech86]

Loved this tour. One of the top tours for sure. Seems like a chill dude with an awesome collection. Super passionate, gotta respect it.

[@Chilly-uq2zl]

These are my favorite kind of tours! The ones where i find out a bunch of tools that im adding to my wish list! Lmao

[@willberham]

Lol! Why I watch these too, brother!

[@ToolBoxTour]

Christmas is coming up! Get those lists filled out! 😜

[@that_juan_sti5054]

I love these videos where peoples boxes are so organized and they make there own 3d stuff

[@dcole109]

This channel is great and all of these people are great examples of proud Americans with opportunity who work hard and achieve their dreams. Distinct individuals who are focused on doing well for themselves their employer and their customers. I’m very proud to be counted among them!

[@ToolBoxTour]

I’m so glad I can provide a venue for people to share.

[@ryan.mullen]

Let’s go!!! I appreciate the shout out. David has a killer set up. I’ve been so busy I’m behind a couple videos. I really got to catch up. Great video as always.

[@ToolBoxTour]

Yes!! Hope to visit you soon Ryan!

[@ericgutierrez1014]

Absolute unit of a setup. I also think it's really cool how his son is able to 3-D print a lot of useful stuff for him!

[@gehringer37]

This is my dream tool box!!!! OMG you shown me so many tools I never knew I needed till now!!! Looks like Im doing some tool shoping tonight!! Great video!!!

[@markstewart6104]

This was a really nice tour. He's a really personable guy. He would make a great Snap On , Matco dealer. Your videos are the best out there.

[@ToolBoxTour]

Thanks for watching!

[@theax40]

I worked at Matco in Jamestown, NY for a little while building these tool boxes. I was on the end of the welding line where the boxes were nearly done being fabricated. A few rivets, a few spot welds and then on a riser so we could orbital sand any scratches on the outside before it went to the paint line. First time someone told me how much they cost it blew my mind. 10k, 20k for a tool box and you still gotta fill it with tools. Pretty cool job but it was dirty and hot as balls in the summer.

[@ToolBoxTour]

I’m curious since you worked there. Do they ever give tours of their factories?

[@theax40]

​@@ToolBoxTourthis was around ten years ago but I imagine they might. Every factory job I ever had, at some point some prospective client or customer was given a tour. Might be different though if you want to film inside the factory.

[@harveysmith100]

Every shop needs a guy like this. I love the way he explains the reason for owning the tool and what he mainly uses it for. He doesn't need to spend anymore but Koken do the best nutgrip sockets including pinless flexible nutgrips, I know, sorry guys, now you need to buy them.

[@randysmith9636]

It's funny you mentioned the grip sockets. I am semi retired after 45 years of wrenching. Meaning I only work on jobs that I want to do now. In the late 70s, 80s and 90s your tool options were very limited, primarily truck brand no Olsa, Tekton, Capri and the like. Although I started out with Craftsman tools and box, saved up and bought that big Craftsman set, 1900 tools or something like that. Hauled that around to the few independent shops I worked at until going to school, getting ASE certified and landed in a dealership. I love tools, I love buying tools, I love collecting tools Although I probably do not need those sockets I will buy them. Why, because as you said, they work and are pretty cool.

[@harveysmith100]

@@randysmith9636 It's OK, blame me. It's not your fault, I led you astray. I dare not mention that their extensions are the best out there. The knurling is on the fat part so you get a better grip.

[@GreaseMonkeyDK]

Thanks!! I actually have the Koken nut grip sockets and extensions in my box at home. I found Koken way after all my work stuff had been purchased but it’s been a far better economical option than Snappy.

[@EastCoastMan603]

That’s the guy you WANT working on a vechicle. Great video and that guy is an absolute organization KING.

[@joshuawillits9807]

He said “you’ve probably sold more tools than most people” …I bet you’ve sold more tools than the most successful Snap On guy

[@OneManOnFire]

Yes I'm guilty of this

[@doesabear__inthewoods7128]

Just ordered the Astro tools nano low profile impact sockets. Love this channel.

[@ToolBoxTour]

I do what I can lol

[@RVthereyet25]

BEAUTIFUL!! Nice color choice! MATCO makes a great toolbox!!

[@pinarellorider9023]

Why do I get so much pleasure out of watching these tool "tours" while at work?? Keep the content coming, Brother!

[@chadsanderson4800]

He’s a great Tech. And a hell of a car builder also. Glad to see your still doing it David. Amazing setup. Chad.

[@pedroreyes9884]

one of the best tool box reviews I’ve seen, just started as a Hydraulic mechanic at a machine shop and I know most of these tools aren’t even what I use but it’s still nice to see so many different stuff.

[@SamueLordcrumpet]

Another CLASSIC Tool Box Tours video. David's toolbox was wonderful! Thank you as always for taking the time to film and edit this!! Looking forward to the next one!! Best, Sam.

[@ToolBoxTour]

I appreciate the kind words, Sam! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@carabela125]

I've been watching this 10 minutes at a time all day. Tool sales will double tomorrow.

Mad respect to David for how clean and organized his setup is!

This was an amazing tour, what a good dude - wish he was my tech. And this is the best channel - absolutely love how you put the product number and price on screen.

[@vexor7]

Another awesome tour as always, I completely agree with him about you being a key point in selling many tools I wouldn't have otherwise seen. Keep up the great work man!

[@nathandnicholson]

This guy is so dialed. The most practical, well thought out set-up I've ever seen. The best video so far! The "Autel-Lite" scan tool looks interesting. So many great ideas. I gotta get a 3D printer!

[@ToolBoxTour]

I think we all need a 3D printer! lol

[@sugarskulllyfe5890]

this guys set up is amazing one of the best by far on the channel!!!

[@jongregg794]

A true professional. Great video! Watched the entire thing.

[@ToolBoxTour]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@deltasi7270]

I love watching these tours. I like this guy . I’ve noticed there’s a lot of good Tech’s /Mechanics on TBT channel . Don’t know how he vets them but he’s good at it . This video is part tool tour part how to, part showing a dam good mechanic . I also like how he tells an anecdote. I cringed over the co- worker losing her teeth. He also makes a good point on what it takes not to just do the job , but be 1st class at it. Up and coming spanner boy/ girls should pay attention if you find yourself with a mentor like Dave . I can think of a few young Techs I’d send him . TBT another outstanding video buddy . You definitely have a talent for it . Thanks .🇬🇧Dazzer

[@Bobbaabuilda]

I saw him post that Giant Fakra connector on our Facebook group back in 2023. Great video and excellent tool box setup!

Wow David is a cool guy a man after my own heart he has put a nice kit together very meticulous and eager to share his nollage a 1.35. minute video just took me three hours to watch absolutely appreciate the way he stores snd keeps everything so clean keep these videos coming please and thank you 👍😎👍

[@ToolBoxTour]

Glad you enjoyed it! He’s definitely a top-notch tech!

[@snipes700]

Gotta tell ya, that is just freaking awesome. What a great video for us tool guys. I’m just a wannabe compared to this set-up. Not only is the box & tools just over the top, the tech is so down to earth and honest about whether to spend big bucks on stuff.

[@warrenlee3113]

I very much enjoy watching your videos. I learn something new. The more tools, the better you are . Thank you

[@bradthx]

Yet another awesome video from a passionate tech who knows his stuff. And again I just purchased a few hundred dollars on more tools from this video, lol. Thank you for spending the time to do these interviews and post the make and model of the tools discussed.

[@ToolBoxTour]

I’m glad you enjoy them!

[@randysmith9636]

Excellent video brother. I truly enjoyed watching and listening to him reviewing his box. I am so happy to hear him NOT like the wobble + extensions. The very first time using mine the socket pushed back and no longer wobbled. His box looks a lot like mine, except for the HF and Olsa tools, i do not own any of their offerings. Thanks again for another great video. Edit to add, i had that slide top Snap On cart but ... After setting it up i realized because of the depth of the top compartment you lose valuable space. For him as a electronics station it works but for me the two extra drawers worked better.

I wish I could say "I never use SAE" my upper drawer has to be split with SAE and Metric. Our shop is probably one of the few places that gets excited when the tool truck has a buy the metric get the SAE free deals. Great layout. Very well laid out and organization is on point.

[@75miguel75]

As a Matco distributor myself, turn your sliding shelves in your locker upside down/flip them over. It will now turn into a sliding drawer. Have your distributor to order the liners.

8:08 that thread checker is nice but the one that comes in a case with individual thread checkers is way more versatile their on amazon.....you cant always take a bolt off and bring it to the thread checker so its nice to be able to bring the thread checker to the bolt

[@GreaseMonkeyDK]

I’ll check that out. I’ve seen a different one advertised like the one I have but the inserts unscrew to take to the bolt. Could definitely come in useful. I have thread pitch gauges that came with my tap set, but I’m not a fan lol

Make a tool box tour video of master mechanics, other master mechanics watch them, enjoy and sometimes buy tools from the links in the description. Then the video creator makes some money off of affiliate links, and he can use some of it for future videos. So clever. It's a lot of work to search those links for each tools they mentioned.

I try to make it easy for you all to find them!

Honestly I bought the small knipex cobras and they’ve come in handy so much, I’ve even used them for jewelry repairs and I’m a mechanic. Honestly I’ve used them more times than I can remember. Those and the huge ones they have. Everyone made fun of me for getting both yet they ask to barrow them 😂

[@commonsenseisdeadin2024]

FYI you made a comment about UV lights that "are just blue".... There's 4 different "UV" spectrums/wavelengths (UV, UVA, UVB, UVC) that achieve different things (IE illuminate neon colors or dyes/fluid, disinfection, tanning, scorpions, etc..etc...) The wavelength we need for leak detection dyes is 360nm-370nm (usually marketed as 365nm) What's interesting is he has the streamlight which is 400nm and it may work but it's definitely not as easy... 400nm is ideal more to see scorpions....

[@ToolBoxTour]

Good info!! In the future I’ll look for 365nm lights. Thank you!

[@commonsenseisdeadin2024]

@ToolBoxTour I learned the hard way, couldn't see the dye well at all and thought the dye was just too old.... Bought new dye and still nothing.... Found some mention of different wavelength uv lights and got the correct one and well, my coolant glows like a stoners basement! 😂

I had no idea. I now know two things. 1: I should buy yet another a/c UV light And 2: I need to go find me some scorpions Thanks for the knowledge!
