Snap-on Tools featured on How It's Made - Tool Storage

[@2wheeljockey209]

Worked at the Snap-On tool storage plant in Algona, Iowa in the Tool & Die department 1994 - 2000. Great product, great people, great community!

[@cwhitz]

Same but still there. '97 to present

[@cbk0485]

Hey! I do tool and die too. But for Vidmar.

[@antoniogallegos1652]

My heart is with SNAP-ON but my pocket is with craftman.

[@Ivan-lw2ux]

Craftsman/husky boxes Harbor freight tools😁 Cuz at the end of the day..it turns the bolt just the same👍

[@grizzlycountry1030]

My dad has craftsman tools that are older than me and still going strong. That's over 42 years old. My snapon tools never got anywhere close to that. Always had to repair or replace them. Now I'm slowly taking over his craftsman tools now that he's approaching his 80s.

[@windycityasmr154]

I’m 17 My hearts with snap on but pockets with Pittsburgh pro

[@austinpaxman503]

@@Ivan-lw2ux but they don’t turn the bolt the same…. A cheap wrench will strip out a lot quicker than a quality wrench. And when you round a bolt off and spend 2 hours trying to get it out. Compared to 5 mins with a quality tool to start with…

[@serafinacosta7118]

Try Cornwell or Matco. They were less expensive and just as durable as Snap On KRL series.

[@samfutch8994]

The paint is mixed with the blood of a unicorn.

[@TempoDrift1480]

And eagle piss.

[@AnEducatedASSumption]

They left out the part where it's blessed by the pope himself. That's why they're so expensive ya know

"The prepackaging prevents dents and scratches along the way." Lady smacks it with the board lol. Just had to point that out for fun haha.

[@ChaseRDale]

Came here for this comment lmao

[@joenj383]

I was thinking the same thing. 🙂

[@Spachia]

Seems pretty straightforward. Where’s the part that makes them 8 thousand dollars?

[@MrTmenzo]

Greedy unions

[@jesusguerrero7732]

Because it says snap on

[@saoz3]

not made by chinese children

[@woodrimcars2324]

Love my Epiq 68 here in France which I bought when working in New Zealand for Maserati.

[@KTMoto_pher]

I AM NOT A FULLY MECHANIC BUT I BOUGHT MY FIRST SNAP ON BOX JUST TO SIT BESIDE OUR DINING TABLE AND STARE ON IT1 WHILE EATING. 😍

[@metricdeep8856]

Dude...I have a clean, new, small roller cab in my living room. Large roller cab in the garage. The joys of being single. Cheers.

[@serafinacosta7118]

Great idea. They are justavas clean and last a whole lot longer.

[@roninbushito]

I have a snap on box as a dresser for socks because I’m rich

[@kcuhc84]

If I had bought one of these, I would have to say it was the greatest thing since sliced bread because I had so much money invested in it.

[@zimmhollowfarm8414]

Be cool if there was a video of them showing how they make the Epic series tool boxes

[@Jason607]

I noticed they are showing a KRA “heritage” box being made which is very base. Good box but I’ve had every series now and there is a difference.

[@fernandovalencia5282]

Love my Epiq!!

[@metricdeep8856]

Add-ons are endless.....as are the payments.

[@jethro9341]

Im willing to bet money that everyine here crying about the cost is a hobby mechanic that goes months or years at a time without getting into his box. When you have to use it and rely on it every single day to pay the bills, you will understand why they are worth every penny.

[@Harrell423]

Irwn and craftsman both have a lifetime warranty and are 1/3 the price.. so yea I'll stick with them

[@grizzlycountry1030]

My dad was a professional mechanic and his craftsman tools are over 42 years old. Never worn out, broke or needed to be replaced. As a professional mechanic I can't say the same about my snapon tools that needed to be frequently repaired or replaced. One thing I learned is not to believe the hype from a dumbass mechanic with no money in his wallet. Just because they cost more money it didn't make them better than other brands out there. I'll never buy another snapon tool.

[@jethro9341]

@@grizzlycountry1030 First, 42 years ago, craftsman made quality tools right here in the best country in the world. Today, they are cheap garbage made by slaves from the cheapest materials possible. Second, since you have so many tools and so much experience, do your own test. Take a snapon wrench and any other wrench you choose, find a slightly rounded bolt head and look closely and take the time to feel how the box end fits and feels. Im not saying quality tools will make the man, hell, a good mechanic can make due with shit tools, but buy once, cry once has been my mot since I started. And yes, a guy can have good tools AND money in his wallet at the same time.

[@renragged]

Those are pretty bad ass. Time for me to start saving...

[@MrTorchboss]

renragged just walk onto a truck. find a box you want and make payments.

[@TempoDrift1480]

How's that working out for ya bud?

[@sydsyd]

Excellent product, owned several over the years! Well worth the investment!

[@jose8a864]

I love my Snap On Master Series Box so fucken heavy american made no other box holds up.

[@weslester5150]

Love my new snappy box!!

[@Kyle-jb3hr]

I must of missed the part where they lined the paint with 20 dollar bills

[@AmmarSaeed-n9t]

Which kind of welding they use?

[@antoniogallegos1652]

I'm a big fan of snapon tools but my pocket goes with harborfreight. I can't afford snapon but nothing stops me for dreaming

[@wheelstandr]

I'm here to see how they line up the Snap-on emblem for my HF 72" The emblem I bought is metal with alignment pegs. Not sure if I'm going to drill the holes or snap off the pegs.

[@dundee1000]

No snap on sockets for the wheels... ha ha

[@austinmoore1689]

You can start snap on credit and do payments on tools to build your credit

[@Pertamax7-HD]

Nice tools

Grizzly country, she says thanks

[@brandonmurphy8837]

snap on thinks a lot of their stuff that's for sure huge $

[@ae90tuner]

Pretty standard manufacturing process, not sure how this warrants the price.

[@Jason607]

I hear you and it’s hard to beat classic USA made craftsman. I still have plenty. New craftsman is just Chinese junk for the most part. I bought some replacements to fill in the gaps and not the same tools.

[@littlestomper9493]

The made in the USA craftsman were awesome tools... The new craftsman are pier junk so sad how craftsman Warranty and tools have taken a shit it started about 18 years ago.

[@serafinacosta7118]

Craftsman is gone with Sears. You can’t find spares for your crafty box.

[@djrayner2556]

🔥

[@GeneralG1810]

For the price of the box alone you can buy a fully equipped box of another decent brand

[@serafinacosta7118]

Mac, Matco, Cornwell.

[@AAP0000]

This is the one David Guetta uses.

[@kenpryor4440]

i paid 18 grand for mine and i been in the business for over 28 yrs i have had 3 cause i out grew them and always got a great trade in on the next one well worth it

[@jethro9341]

ken pryor exacly! Buy a us general or a husky every 3-4 years or buy a snap on once. The choice is easy for me.

[@marcoflores737]

You can buy a Rolex for the same price but you can't make a living with it

[@ravinesh1993]

Now some of the boxes made in China

[@cwhitz]

Not the big ones, we still make them

[@roninbushito]

None are made in communist China

[@scorpnz4433]

Where does it go after being spot welded as now you've introduced oxidisation not to mention having bare metal open to the air. Personally i'd rather have the option to have the box made by NZ steel that way the zinc they use under the paint will stop the dam things rusting from under the fk'n paint or at least for quite sometime. NZ steel make metal roofs that last 20 years or more. A snap-on box inside a house will last 5 years before it breaks out with rust which tells me quality control is lacking.Bare metal & oxygen don't mix when in a factory. That was the new one that replaced the old after the old one was warranty claimed. The older one lasted longer before rusting. Then there's the not so little matter of parts of the box not painted at all. It's on the inside top of the roll cab where it looks like it was held by two rectangular arms (can see the outline).

[@azmrblack]

I can't see how paying 10 grand for one of these is within the realm of sanity. If you're willing to pay that much for a mass produced box, I'd say hire a metalsmith to build a custom one at half the price. Regardless, just too much...

[@Norcalflat]

That is exactly why I let someone else foot the big bill, and get mine used.

[@TempoDrift1480]

Try 18 grand.

[@roninbushito]

You can’t beat robots in building

[@goyslop4289]

exact same way the harbour freight and every other mass produced tool box is made, instead of paying stupid prices for a Snapoff box buy an emblem on ebay and stick it on a cheap box lol.

[@jethro9341]

bdub z you left out the part where harbor freight and similar boxes use thinner steel, drawer glides with cheap bearings and low weight capacities, cheap easy to defeat locking mechanisms, and crappy castors. You can buy a $600 habor freight box every 3-4 years or you can buy a snap on once in your lifetime.

[@jarred281]

Sorry man but I️ own an extreme tools $2000 72 wide box and it doesn’t compare in any way to my snap on epiq, as stated above, thinner steel and cheaper parts. The cheaper ones will do the job for a small time tech but when you’re working on heavy equipment you need heavy duty stuff and snap on is the only way to go.

[@tony4metallicaify]

Yeah I like to see you throw a 1000+lbs in a harbor freight box.......not going to happen

[@roninbushito]

That’s bs

[@azmrblack]

I bought HF's top of the line box with locker & side drawer set in 2007-8 and I have entire sets of Snapon chrome SAE & Metric from 1/4 to 1/2 + specialty, and entire sets of SAE & Metric Sunex impacts from 1/4 to 1/2 up to 34mm in the socket drawer. That drawer is heavy AF, it still rolls as smooth as the day I bought it. I have a bunch of heavy shit in all the drawers, the box is so heavy you can't even move it without machine assistance or a winch. Shop friend who had a Snapon box, I compared the two, the steel was about the same thickness and built nearly the same. The cheaper HF roll carts and homeowner boxes of course don't compare.

[@AJCOOL357]

Ah that’s why it takes 6 months to get a box from yall

[@jarvisrinklebaker5450]

Any Matco box is better built that any Snap-On box. I’ve had both. The difference is obvious. People buy snap on boxes for the name.

[@roninbushito]

Matco is junk they don’t make any tools they simply rebrand from sweat shop factories. Matco is simply a distributor like harbor fake

[@melvinjohnson7033]

At the end of the work day its a freakin metal box that holds tools at 5 times or more the price of Harbour Freight and others. Snap-on is a rip off.

[@arizonandrifter4292]

Melvin Johnson have you ever been around or worked with a snap on tool box?

[@roninbushito]

Just say u can’t afford it

[@zachkelley3131]

ugh a woman on how its made....

Where's the regular male host we always hear?

[@Mordorer]

Lol why the fuck does it matter?

[@grizzlycountry1030]

She loves emphasizing big sizes. LOL

[@zackbunning3245]

After this video was done, they went back to tagging them with Harbor Freight badges. Snap On is garbage

[@AmmarSaeed-n9t]

Which kind of welding they use?

[@serafinacosta7118]

Spot welding throughout.
