**New** Snap-on KRL1023 Tool Box Tour

About 2 months ago I bought a new Snap-on KRL1023 Tool box. I shot a video of the box before I put any tools in it. Many of you asked for a new tool box tour to see how I set things up. Here's that video.
Know that I've already changed a few things and probably will for some time to come as I figure out the new workflow.
Here's the original tool box tour I put out for Premium Members of my website: www.ericthecar...
Intro music by Eric Cook "ETCG1 Intro".

[@HumbleMechanic]

As you know I have the same toolbox. I moved the drawer config around a little. I like the top right drawer to be the deep. I dig your setup brother.

[@jdpower5552]

I wish you and ETCG could do a channel together, that would be dynomite!

[@rustybrowneye]

YES, START DOING TOOL REVIEWS AGAIN!

[@ArchimedeanEye]

Good God that is one very impressive collection of tools... Enough to give a man a buzz when confronted with the mere sight of it!

[@ETCG1]

Yea, my shop is pretty ridiculous. I pinch myself every time I walk into the door. I also say hello when I arrive, and goodbye when I leave.

[@madfiat8932]

Hope your tools are insured. My dad's shop was robbed back in the 80s (yeah a long time ago) and they took most of his tools. He didn't have insurance and it basically bankrupted us and his business never recovered.

[@camtheham13]

well you should always show common courtesy to your tools

[@wrenchspinner101]

Powerbelt , whatever that is ... obviously tried making their ratchet look like a snap on. They look alike but that doesn't mean they perform the same. Snap on ratchets haven't changed their look for sometime. Sweet box man!

[@scienceaddict77]

Do tool reviews again please. I learn about some interesting stuff that I've never heard of, and it also adds variety to the channel, which I like.

[@beefcake666]

YES!!! Please do tool reviews again!

[@brettconv83]

I work for snap On and I can say the 1023 is a beautiful drawer setup and layout. It's my new favorite setup.

[@g-mang-man7924]

I knew ETCG1 would love his new box as much as I love mine. Yes, more storage area, faster ease of finding the right tool, does make you more efficient. It also makes you want to take that extra time to put everything away, and that really reduces lost tools. I have a few less drawers, because I have 4 deeper ones. I also have a side locker, which holds quite a lot of other things I don't need to keep open on a shelf.

[@greggcrittermuse6347]

Eric, let me 1st start with saying that I have watched several of your videos & enjoyed all that I have seen so far. Congratulatesions on your new box. Some people think that all toolboxes are created equal but, as some of us know, they aren't. I bought a Snap-on 84" Epiq about 4.5yr ago & it's the best box I have owned. I finely made my 1st inventory video 4 months ago here on KZbin. I read some of the comments & I think that most of the people that try to say that HF toolboxes are just as good as say a Snap-on toolbox are just to cheap to buy 1 or are jealous that they can't buy 1. I get all different comments on my box. Most are good but there's always a few haters. Thanks for sharing your toolbox inventory with us. Gregg (Critter) Muse

[@CravinMorehead420]

Nothing better than an organized box.

[@axtra92]

YES WE WANT TOOL REVIEWS!!

[@ShopTalkWithJason]

I have never ever in my life seen a professional who did not put all of his sockets in the top drawer of his toolbox or at least in the top of his service cart. How unusual... Eric, I'm going to make an executive decision right here and right now and say: I like it!! It wouldn't work for me because I would always be opening the wrong drawer but, I like your set-up. You know what to do about the wrench drawer, right? The Snap-On Junkie channel has the best solution of all time

[@tonykendrick618]

I miss the tool reviews, great video Eric!

[@wallyg.2409]

Those little clamps from Harbor Freight save my bacon, Eric. My marker light lens, both ears broke off where the screws go. A little epoxy and those EXCELLENT little clamps to hold each side in place, an excellent fix. Great little tool.

[@sup3rn0va242]

very nice box eric i can see why u went ahead and got it. but yea you doing tool reviews again sounds like a great idea. seriously i got some of the tools i have thanks to the reviews u did on them

[@belindakt]

I'm impressed! everything's in 1 place, that is a time saver for sure. I've got tools & stuff stuck in cabinets here and there, in this bay & that bay, over there & up there. Your organizational skills are quite impressive!!

[@ETCG1]

That's where I was before I got this box. It's made things so much more efficient.

[@Rogen4ever]

Been watching tool box videos all week, get my snapon box this week.

[@MatrixDiscovery]

That's amazing that you got all the drills and drill bits in one drawer! James May from Top Gear would be proud of the wrench drawer! You can re-name the Hammer Drawer to Jeremy Clarkson tool set drawer.

[@Jsbs1991f]

Yes!!! Please do tool reviews again. They were my favorite every other wednesday show!!!!!

[@gebhardt2]

That is wonderful. Don't regret any amount of money spent there. Also, for regular, home DIY guys like me, working on a car at home is getting exceedingly expensive. It's only getting harder unless you slowly upgrade.

[@murmaider2]

I love the way you organized it. Very logical

[@richieschmidt6225]

Eric PLEASE do a tool review of all of your impact wrenches! Those are very fun.

[@derekthetoolguy9533]

I counted 70 ratchets in my box the other day and all are newer truck and industrial brands I got way more than that in just extensions lol . I've noticed that most mechanics really don't have many ratchets in thier boxes maybe a couple of each drive size and are usually just minimalist. I'm not a professional mechanic I consider myself a collector but I was an engine guy at a junk yard and pulled every other part from anything you can think off as well as many auto repairs. I like to have a variety of brands even in the same style ratchets but all a variety of different style ratchets for different applications it's nice to be able to try out all the truck brand ratchets and other tools and compare them all. I've learned snap on is not the greatest really I think the other truck tools at least the hard lines are pretty much equal and as for preference I ratchet I prefer them Mac axis 90t or Cornwell 72t over snap on the Macs look the best the Cornwells seem the heaviest and have very strong 1/4 and 3/8 with the biggest paws and gears which equal to more contact area and strength but like snap on for 1/2 but have not tried Mac in 1/2 yet.

[@cnchess]

I am totally envious!

[@brandonlainez9858]

I'm glad to see that you're happy with the new box Eric, best of luck.

[@turtleh]

Totally worth it, good buy man you deserve it.

[@holidayhouse03]

Thank God it didn't fall on your new box!

[@69virgin1966]

Shop is starting to look great. I hope that things will start picking up for you soon. Thanks for sharing

[@jason-ge5nr]

Very nice toolbox, but drywall improperly installed on a ceiling doesnt take but a minute to fall down. Whats *really* going on?

[@Lohmong209]

Thanks for the Snap Tool box Tour.

[@BluePawWorkshop]

Those Harbor Freight clips work great for potato chip bag clips as well. Cheap and SUPER useful! Totally agree!

[@whoodiestyle]

I use department stores clothes hanger with the clips to hold shorts there free usually thrown in the trash. just cut off the unneeded parts and only save the clip there way better than store bought ones that always crack.

[@BluePawWorkshop]

I read your comment, walked into my laundry room, grabbed a hanger, cut it and have it on my chip bag. Awesome idea! Thanks for the tip!

[@whoodiestyle]

awesome glad it worked for you also.

[@chris010281]

Please do tool reviews again I've also bought Milwaukee tools recently and very impressed so far

[@daveblane6442]

chinee crap IMHO

[@learningthehardway6186]

That's one heck of a beautiful tool box. Far too rich for my blood but I'm glad to see a guy like you get one. Keep up the good work!

[@joebeaumier3124]

that top draw is absolutely crazy

[@Nope-un5lq]

Very happy for your, Eric! Enjoy your new box for many, many jobs to come :-)

[@mudslinger704]

excellent setup you got there now Eric.

[@mr.carguy3161]

I thought you were a dewalt guy. But you've stepped over to the dark side and touched Milwaukee Red. I don't know if you got that drill as a set, but with the power it has, sometimes you WILL need that handle! Their mid-torque 1/2 impact is the bees knees!

[@Pigeonbutter8790]

What a beautiful box! Makes me want a bigger one

[@TheHDPerspective]

nice box! it sure is nice to have everything in one place

[@Sproutt]

my dads got a set of the blue adjustable wrenches so nice, they were light enough to use all day if you had too and they feel good adjusting. nice box Eric

[@benigo15]

Yes you should start doing tool reviews again!!! I have missed them.

[@wyattoneable]

I did enjoy the tour, thank you.

[@scallywag1716]

You can get a Hanger for your tub of towels to wall mount.

[@xXTECHxKNIGHTXx]

GORGEOUS BOX ERIC! I'm so glad you upgraded! Treat yourself man you've worked hard to get where you are! So sick! :D Maybe get a rubber mat for the top to keep it nice and scratch free! :D TOOL REVIEWS YES!

[@rradioactiv]

I have the 11 drawer version of your box with black chrome pulls. great box and I've already got mine full to the max need to grab a bigger one now.

[@Max-Schell]

Bring tool reviews back !!

[@nateyboy1156]

yes more tool reviews would be great eric

Eric you need to put a steel sheet on top to protect that beautiful surface. I know it's meant to be worked on but you're so proud it's a shame to scratch it all up.

[@davidmcnaughton5115]

Love the tour. And to see your excitement. I just filmed mine. Wasnt sure how to tag you im new to videos just wanted to say that you inspired mine with your "favorite tool" question. I had to do a few takes because of trouble loading so i'm not sure if the final version had my comment about you. Regardless great tour. You deserve that box

[@michaelburris9051]

Can u do a tool review on the Ingersoll 3/8 impact wrench I've been looking to buy it but I can find a good tool review on it... please Eric you do such great work👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 your the man

[@derekthetoolguy9533]

CONGRATS ERIC!!!

[@TJDukit1]

very cool. makes me miss my tool collection even if it's not as impressive. only 3.5 more years and I'll have it all back.

[@BADD400]

Nice box Eric. Easter is my Birthday this year so Monday's video I will take for my birthday wish.

[@willfelipa5419]

Very nice Snap On tool box and tools 👍

[@dc5723]

About time you got an excellent box.

[@Charlies_Corner]

It IS my birthday thank you Eric!

[@frankcrawford416]

Nice tour. Very entertaining as well. Thanks

[@crasbee]

Will you ever make a full-length version of the ETCG1 intro song? :)

[@johngibson3594]

Very nice Eric thanks for the tour

[@ReclusiveMountainMan]

Tool reviews would be cool!

[@joshuaodowd9107]

Good for you Eric that's an awesome box and you def deserve it man. Hopefully your views pick up again cause KZbin won't be the same without ETCG !

[@pinfarmer]

Congrats of the new box.

[@workingshlub8861]

those ingersoll rand hammerhead impacts are great...lots of power.

[@ChevyFtWss]

I'm so peanut butter and jelly right now. i just have a hand me down crapsman with a missing drawer. Wish we could hang out so i can use your shop and help! haha.

[@Ajicles]

yes to tool reviews!!!

[@rzrback3]

Bet there's a story behind that empty, scorched electrical box cutout!

[@ETCG1]

That's not what it is. I believe I mentioned in the last video that I needed to cut some metal off the wall to make the box fit.

[@RF1octane]

I was considering the IR cordless tools, but the batteries on those are crazy expensive! In my opinion the Milwaukee cordless impact are about the same when it comes to performance, batteries are cheaper and on top of that the warranty on those things are amazing.

[@Customwinder1]

Great toolbox mate. Mines not as big but it has a fridge and Tablet /TV. 👍

[@robertherrera419]

That was pretty cool, man. Loved it and very happy for you. And a little bit jealous. HA! =D

[@jacmccauley7581]

I would definitely be interested in seeing some new tool reviews. Especially those hose wrenches that you showed.

[@trainsbangsandautomobiles824]

Would LOVE the tool reviews again! I have bought a lot of (and stayed away from a few) just from those vids. Also, where is a cheap place to get hondabond? I love the stuff but $12 a tube kills me

[@mopardave4935]

Awesome video Eric!

[@dfdorsey85]

Nice Rig! Love my KTL1022 and look forward to upgrading to a triple someday when needed.

[@shalnks]

about time you said Aluminium correctly :)

[@daveblane6442]

except it is a STAINLESS top.

[@warnerconcepcion9929]

ToolReviewTuesday? I'd watch it.

[@madfiat8932]

I use Mechanical Fingers to get dropped stuff. Somehow I think they work better than those giant tweezers (mantis) would. Similar to using a magnet, but it has claws that are operated by a plunger, can grip onto bolts/screws that have gotten hung up when they fell and yank them out.

[@frugalprepper]

nice box. thanks for sharing.

[@AttilaTheHun333333]

Still can't believe the price, but I'm happy for you. Happy Eric means even greater videos in the future. So when do you tell your wife where all that money went? ^^

[@dbcooper5811]

that ir 3/8 badass!!!

[@HockeyVictory66]

This is great. I bet there are $20k worth of tools in there and the box was probably more than $10k.. I hope you have an alarm and a guard dog in your shop.

[@punker6506]

I got one of those hammer head angle impacts years ago and was sorely disappointed. Every time I found something that it would be awesome for.....womp womp not enough power. It just sat in my box and i ended up trading towards one of the new snap on torque wrenches that does angles and all that. waaaay more useful lol

[@tsw199756]

Hope you don't end up like the landlady at a place I used to rent. She lived next door and her ceiling fell on her while she was asleep! lol

[@built2last31]

i have basically the same one but in red i really like it but the snappy man gets such a markup on it its nuts what you actually pay for it my wife says we could have bought a new car with the money i spent on it it will last a lifetime for sure ive had mine for 10 years i made a butcher block top for mine

[@kintam8152]

Great tool box review . Hope i can buy one like that too.

[@zx8401ztv]

I can fully understand why you wanted a quality toolbox, everything is accessible. Nice to see even your old mate, the old repaired metal tube hammer has a place. You have had that for bloody years, very reliable, taper ball joints quake with fear :-D. PARDON, "Al you mini umm" i nearly spat my tea out with supprise ha ha :-D

[@sparkplug1018]

Some old tools just grow on us like that, got a lady slipper in my box that I've had for so many years I can't even recall. Always works and nothing stays out of alignment for long once that comes out.

[@zx8401ztv]

Yes its true, my favorites are molegrips or visegrips, and channel locks/plumbers plyers, good for gripping damaged nuts or removing studs. Welders love the molegrips for holding metal in place while welding.

[@camtheham13]

Bring back tool reviews, looks like you have tons of content

[@RyansDawg2014]

Yes I would love to see more tools reviews

[@garrettarney2903]

Love the 1023 want one so bad

[@tubesock509]

I hope one day I my tool box can look like this fresh out of tech school and got a d.o.t fleet technician job .. hopefully my craftsmen box will only be a very short temporary box ha

[@asmautollc]

Nice; & wouldn't mind more tool reviews

[@gregoryellis7391]

Would love to see a tool review of the Ingersoll rand battery impacts. I get a pretty deep discount on them, and have been thinking of getting them.

[@kenman1717]

Awesome set up. At first when you opened the big drawer and I didn't see sockets I was like wtf. But after seeing your sockets you really don't have enough to fill that drawer. In my snap on box that drawer is packed with sockets plus I have like 2 other small drawers with specialty bits/sockets. I was wondering about that leverage wrench, so you don't have to double wrench, have been trying to find one, nobody seems to know what I'm talking about. I looked on that JBTools website you linked, didn't see it there, although I could have missed it. I was wondering what brand it was, maybe a part number? Thanks.

[@mastergx1]

I would love to see a tool review on those Angled Impacts. They look awesome!

[@wallyg.2409]

Thought for sure you would have all your sockets and ratchets in the top drawer. Separate the cordless and pneumatic's between two drawers in the middle bank.

[@FBobby]

So I have to say, putting your sockets down like 5 drawers confuses me. Why would you want to have to bend down to get some of the most common tools?

[@carslover3509]

super a great man now we are good

[@user-lz4nz4nl6d]

you should mount you compressor on some rubber mounts I used boat trailer bumpers. cuts down vibration allowing longer life.

[@jerryfife2015tacoma]

awesome box bro, I have the same one and mine is red, getting the work station hutch for it soon I hope, great tool box tour, very nice set up.

[@jamescravens4109]

Lmao world's biggest set of roach clips. That was great. Awesome tool box man, thanks for all the great videos.

[@ScottandTera]

Nice setup thanks for the tour
