I dont carry around any excess shit, so all my gear lives in a Beta C41S & ally flight cases.

Makita mini series 10.8v impact gun and a 10.8v drill in one case.
Makita 18v rattle gun in other case.

Tool box is mostly air tools and specialised composite tools (tungsten drills, reamers, solid rivet sqeezers etc etc)

Not mine unfortunately, my brothers. It even has a shelf for your banana!

I'd post mine but a budget plastic B&Q toolbox on the garage floor is hardly what is called for here.

That's a nice one, however, the Aston is the wrong number.... should be 007!

Think mine will disappoint! just a tool bag and laptop rucksack for my site work, keep me mobile.

I disagree. I started out using cheaper stuff and found I was soon replacing them. If you work with tools day in day out then I really dont think you can beat snap on. If something breaks, it gets replaced under warranty.

It is for a car enthusiast/hobbyist.Halfords pro advance stuff is more than adequate.thats lifetime warranty too and theyre open sunday.from past experiences snap on only wanna know when youre spending.
if its your job then its important its good quality gear.
I have two topboxes at home a snap on one and a sealey one.
need a rollcab lol

Imo snap on stuff is overpriced

Scene tax

Andy

Snap on isnt a "scene" you oaf lol
pmsl lol its like saying coppers who write with parker pens are sceneheads.lol
whats wrong with a poundshop pack of ten biros?
They seize theyre sharp so tear the paper.Then they run out prematurely or can only be used after licking them.
You get what you pay for.

lol everyone just thinks snap on is the best because someone says so

In my experience there stuff isn't massively better but the price is massively higher

Seen a mate buy a Stanley knife off the snap on van for £25!!!!!!!!!! I got one exactly the same but a different colour at Toolstation for £5.50 and mine came with a pack of ten blades ffs

Andy

Yeah stuff like that is stupid.thats cock waving lol

But alot of stuff i buy off MAC and SNAP ON are because ive bought cheap stuff and it doesn't last, example ive broken more allen key sockets than ive had beers! but bought a snap on gold set and had them 5 years now with the same set!!!

Halfords for show !!! Snap on/ MAC for a pro lol

its a shame snap on air tools are utter dog shit as everything else they do is ok.

I had a snap on 90 degree air grinder, lasted 8 weeks before the viens shattered.

AMR did campaign a 007 car some years ago. I had more to do with #97 when I was at Prodrive tho.

I thought IR made some of Snap On's air tools. Irwin make some bits for them like tap and die sets and. Bahco is another too.
Cannot beat Snap On quality for the main tools like ratchets, sockets and spanners etc. The screwdrivers always seem to fit better too. The tool cabinets are far better quality too, being a lot thicker metal and built better. It all holds its money better as well.

Couldnt agree more. All my air tools are now Ingersoll Rand.

x2 90 degree grinders
x1 straight die grinder
x1 extended straight die grinder
x1 pencil grinder
x1 small chuck pistol drill
x1 90 degree drill
x1 air polisher

Having used Snap-on stuff at the bodyshop i was never impressed with the quality. Ratches die/slip quickly. Even when i started to oil and look after them.
The smarmy/snotty (sp?) sales guy down here is a dick. If you spend mega, he loves you. If not you get nothing.
Owner of the bodyshop got everything... But still got shit service.

I use a mix of Halfords, Draper and Sealey.
Just changed my "bottom" box, was a halfords one but was full so upgraded to a 7 draw Machine Mart box. Which really annoyingly is a little thinner. So they wont sit nicely.
