sup guys.. what type of hand tools you guys use and is it worth buying all the expensive tools like mac or snap on or chraftsman will do just as good.also what about tool boxes?

i use a lot of snap on tools they are high but well worth the money and you can pay them out but dont overlook tool sales you can get some good deals on stuff like vise grips and stuff like that

somethings its worth spinding the extra money on, some things its not.

Depends on who u are, u the garage tinker person, i'd say craftsman cause u can drive and get it warenteed and such. But if your in a shop and have tool guys coming buy all the time to rape u, should use them, because time =$, so it saves u a trip to the store.

i use mostly crafstman or just what ever i find a good deal on .. lol

i buy from snap on cause he the dealer comes around and there is no questions asked if you break it they replace it they may be high but its worth it to me to know it will be under warranty when i put a 15mm socket on my 1/4 air ratchet and bust it caues it will be replaced but like i said you can get good deals on other things elsewhere in the autobody/customizing world you can never have enough vise grips and if all your gonna do is weld around em or get panel bond adhesive all over them get them from a tool sale or walmart

it all depends if they make u money buy the quality but if your the tinker or weekend warrior i say craftsmen is the way to go i mix and match

I have been getting some Kobalt from lowes to replace lost stuff that was craftsman. Same warranty but the lowes store is closer and better hours than sear.

Only snap-on. My guy just warrantied a drill bit I broke. Never any questions. Plus I just like them alot better than the craftsman I used to use.

And he gives me free tickets to the drag races.

My Dad is a hardcore Snap-On guy...but he was a heavy equipment mechanic for a long time too.

When I was doing electrical out in the field, I bought Kline tools. When you make your living with them, it important to have quality.

That being said...

All the tools in my roll away are Craftsmen. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with them for the things I use them for. Not to say that they are not a quality tool, they just aren't as high end as Snappy or Mac. I think they are perfect for what I need them for: weekend stuff around the house.

i gess im that guy i have a full snapon boxat work full of snapon and at the shop at home we have 2 full boxes of mack and snapon i think its just what you like

ackualy the huge mack box and tools at are shop is my wifes i got her the box for a weding present she loved it hehehe

thats awesome, my GF would be like what the hell do i need the tools for, and then i would be like you need them and really just wanted it for my self so i could have more tools... lmao

i have a pic of my wife welding on her pathfinder with her pink thong showing

some ware thats car porn for me hehehe

snap-on guy here. but i was a body tech for a long time. i tried the cheap tools at first, but when i needed them most, they would break and skin my damn knuckles. and when you go on the snap on truck to be raped, they have speciality tools which is always my money spending downfall
