Snapon Roll Cart Setup

This is my new Snapon cart that I got through Snapon’s Student Excellence program. I am 75% done with Automotive school and working at an automotive and light duty diesel shop whenever I’m not at school. Currently 19 and own all my tools outright! Figured I would show anyone who would like to see, what I’m working with.

Very nice. I layout my sockets the same way (metric on top). I have a 1980s Craftsman 10 drawer chest. I also restore vintage mechanic hand tools so my box is kinda half and half old and new stuff. It's cool being able to pick between an m12 stubby impact or an old 24t ratchet from the 1940s just for kicks.

[@andrewjohnson9449]

Yeah I’ve got all my dads old tools at the box in my garage, I don’t use them because I don’t want to break them. I don’t think I have any 1940’s tools, that’s pretty darn old!

[@MarzNet256]

@@andrewjohnson9449 Nice. Yeah. I actually restored some hand tools that date back ate late 1800/early 1900s. I keep the old stuff in its own box.

[@CraigAstor2012]

Very nice set up. You have my respect being a 6.0 PSD mechanic. Thanks for taking the time to post this.

[@onthethrottle7104]

I know this vid is from a while ago but wanted to commend you on a really slick set up. Great job, I'm sure you have a lot more stuff by now. Love the small Snap On box, great way to lay it out!

[@billbeckett1021]

Excellent vid! I have no complaints with any of my Milwaukee tools. If you take care of them they work great.

[@stevecallachor]

Having a million sockets is a bit of a wank! After 50 years in the auto repair trade, I can report that I used about 4 or 5 common sizes in imperial and about the same number of metric sizes. I have dozens of sockets and spanners in sizes I never use. The size you will use most is the one you used last and didn’t put in its proper place. I have also found that “QUALITY” counts for zip, even the cheapest spanner or socket will do its job if you don’t go nuts, to destroy stuff. If it fits right it’ll do the job. The ones I use most are the ones I bought first when I had no money. I bought the excess stuff later on when I had more money than sense. They all have the chrome worn off them and the go rusty if they get wet, but they do the job. Buy what you need as you need it!! Stavros

EH SOMETIMES THE TIGHTER TOLERANCES OF HIGH QUALITY SOCKETS MATTER, IVE HAD IT HAPPEN TO ME WHERE A TEN MM GREY PNEUMATIC SOCKET WOULDNT GRAB BUT THE SNAP ON ONE GRABBED VERY WELL

[@goinhot9133]

I love that box, it’s exactly what I want. Color & all

[@moistmastaflex1518]

I have the same mid sockets from snap on and I love them. There heavily slept on

[@andrewjohnson9449]

I love those snap on sockets, they grab fasteners really good!

[@donaldpainter956]

I like that torque wrench I'm going to get one for sure

[@rjlewis8346]

My cart is orange too and I love your setup

[@Jamie-Evo]

Looks like a great box, i cant decide on the 32 or the 40

[@RipRoaringGarage]

Great looking roll cart. I think I may cave and get one too (or maybe build it from scratch using a soon to be retired section from an old MAC toolbox). I never needed the cart doing 70s cars...but in the last 3 years Ive gone from a regular Christmas Tree MAC setup, to having two big boxes, one 60 inch Matco with Hutch, and a 50 inch MAC...And I still am short on space lol.

[@andrewjohnson9449]

Thank you! At my shop we share all of our specialty tools so we only need the basics for day to day stuff.

[@RipRoaringGarage]

@@andrewjohnson9449 In my shop its just me...I used to have cabinets and all kinds of little boxes for this tool, that drill, but one thing that people dont consider (you know, the guys that say "a tool box is the only thing that doesnt make you money") is that a proper layout and good toolbox setup can make you work A LOT faster. I have a broken neck and back (I know...why am I working on cars still? I dont know..Im dumb), The toolboxes let me work longer and spent less time with Versastack type systems, of un stacking piles of blow molded cases to get that one tool, blowing out my back, then saying, screw it, Im going to lay down LOL. But Im not a pro anymore.

[@joeym.7642]

they make a cover for the tops JKRR343W55AK a bit pricey but better than spray paint

[@chaysongikas9664]

looks great man. Im in the same boat now except in aviation school. Thinking of buying this exact box on the SEP as it will last me so long as AMEs dont have much tools. How has the box held up for you? would you reccomend this over the flip up style cart?

Nice setup, the truck is pretty sweet too! How often do you find you need to grease the powered ratchets?

[@andrewjohnson9449]

Thanks man! I grease them every couple months.

[@ImLiterally.Him.]

Do you ever feel like you should have gotten the 40 inch box? I’m conflicted between the 32 and the 40 cause I wanna keep all my bunch load of sockets together

[@johnbailey9682]

Did you look at the harbor freight 34 in full bank service cart ?

[@andrewjohnson9449]

Yeah I looked at the harbor freight cart before I bought mine, didn’t like the quality. I’m glad I spent the extra money on the Snap-On, much more sturdy!

[@johnbailey9682]

@@andrewjohnson9449 back in the day a long time ago my snap on tool dealer suggested I buy the tools over the tool box . His idea was better to have more tools rather than a nice box that would be mostly empty because of the cost of the over priced box . He was right the tools got the job done not a empty box .

If I had a cart like that, it would be overflowing, and youd have to go fishing for tools, at your own risk

what set did u buy from the snap on sep

[@andrewjohnson9449]

This wasn’t a tool set, I only bought the box and a few ratchets. I didn’t like what came in the sets so I decided to buy everything separately.

I am wary of carts that you need to sell an organ to afford.
