Man you don't have to apologize for not having 100k worth of tools. Seems like you are doing the most sensible thing and your tools in the heavy equipment field are probably getting worked like crazy. Keep doing what works! This reminded me to not feel embarrassed for not having all top of the line tools too!
Amen man I know most people like to see the sexy boxes with only tool truck brands but then you see the comments and they talk shite about how much is costs lol you can’t win online anyway… it’s a bit different when you work in the field imo because if you got one of something an it breaks you’re screwed but other than that whatever gets the job done who cares
If these tools can handle the work this young man does - they ARE professional level.
China and Taiwan produce top line tools. The only glaring difference now with US made is manufacturing cost.
In the 70's Japan automobiles were considered somewhat cheap.
Now they produce Lexus
Times have changed.
Do people really look down on others for having empty drawers? We all start somewhere..
@Camilo Leo spam bots
Ya they are pretty annoying
On your 3rd time having to Barrow a tool you should be buying it that’s exactly right ... I used hat same rule
Question from Germany: Are you self employed or so?
I mean, in Germany, the Company buy you the tools you need for your job. If you need extra tools, you've often to fill a formular out for the Company why you need it and then they order it for you.
Only self employed workers have to buy their own stuff or if you destroyed the tool because you used it wrong. (Idk, like if you use a 3/8 ratchet to loosen are 500 Nm nut with a 2 meter long pipe on it or so)
Just curious.
@@DaroriDerEinzige I'm a heavy diesel mechanic for my state's DOT. In the US they don't provide us with tools, you have to buy your own. In my shop for example every mechanic has a big tool box against the back wall and a tool cart. We don't mind sharing tools but every one of us has all the tools we need to do our jobs. Some have specialty tools that not everyone has and we're ok with sharing. However the company does not buy our tools.
@@DaroriDerEinzige man that sounds amazing, over here, or atleast for my job they provided the tool storage but everything else like the tools thats all up to you to provide
@@Rockardo_ I looked up, it's even a law that the Employer has to give 'Azubis' (People who learn a craft over 2 or 3 Years, with a "Gesellenprüfung" / Certification Test) provide the Tools and Workclothing.
I remember that there are more or lesse "exception", as I was a 'trainee' (I didnt really know if I wanted do to it and tried it out for ~5 months directly after the school) Goldsmith in a small buisness, the Chef told me I would has to buy more and more ua-cam.com/video/4GHIlPALg9gt/v-deo.htmlools but I would get discount, but more as a 'If you get your certification, you can easily work many stuff from home and make extra money'-Thing, and while I would buy those tools part for part, I would get provided everything.
And as I mentioned (I asked a few friends), in smaller buisnesses the Owner helps often Employees to buy their own Tools though to discounts and stuff like that.
The Brother of my Ex is actually a Mechanic for MAN Trucks by MAN, and they get everything from MAN - and you also can lend many thing from work if you simple ask.
But you've to pay the stuff you break if you break it due to misapplication - Like the Boss see's you when you use a 3/8 as a breakerbar despite the fact you would've got a breaker bar.
The three time rule is key . If u borrow stuff and buy tools the other guys don’t mind if borrow stuff if you are always borrowing stuff and not buying now we have a problem. Great video
True, when I was starting out anytime o had to borrow a tool that day I was going to buy it so I didn’t have to again
These r the tool box tours I like. Realistic. Couple top brand tools and anything and everything else, China, Taiwan, etc
Thank you
Hey bro dont ever feel like less of a mechanic for having less tools than someone who has either been doing it for 10+ years or has more money than sense. What you have is making you money so your doing good. That’s a win to me. Keep up the good work bro.
I appreciate it!
The best tool is YOU not the wrench or anything else...........very creative and very original.....absolutely worth watching......IF IT WORKS FOR YOU THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS
I use my ICON 3/8 stubby a lot and love it. I’m a diesel tech and you’re right so many tools you’ll need Icon or gear wrench are good enough.
Been in the mining industry for over 10 years and have a boat load of tools and several boxes, watching you tour after just a year that ain’t nothin to be ashamed of you got a lot if tools I know guys 10 plus years in the business don’t have
When I started working at a FORD dealership in the 1970s my first tools came from Sears when Craftsman was USA made. I got sucked into the tool truck but today there are so many more options.
I have many Harbor Freight tools and so far Harbor Freights no questions exchange policy is one of the best.
For some speciality tools SNAP ON and MAC make some good tools
I think MAC and Marco are made outside the USA.
My first floor box came from Sears and I just passed it on to my nephew and it still works great. There has been zero issues with the drawers
The idea is to make money and you do not need all tool truck tools
Starting out is hard.
Agreed with others that say you don’t need to apologize, nice setup for only a year. Wish I could go back to year 1 ! My grandmother bought me a “TrueCraft” 3/8” set, still have everything but the spark plug socket. that set means more to me than my Snap-on set ~ keep the vids coming!
I’ve watched loads of these tool box tours and this is by far the best one I’ve watched fairplay bud no need to apologise for not having exspensive tools
Nice video. Been turning wrenches for just about 40 years. When I started I had a 2 drawer hand held tool box. You are right, don’t need to buy everything off the tool trucks. Have worked from auto to heavy duty farm equipment and in between. Good luck on your career. 👍
I always take the tool truck flyer of the week and search for the items I'm interested in on Amazon. Chances are I'll find the same thing for 1/4 of the price.
I do the same 😂😂
Bought a ASTROAI Air chuck off amazon. Lighter and more ergonomic than the truck brands.
Yeah I only buy snap on when it’s stuff I use alot
@@MEEK5 same doesn't adjust air as fast but its so much cheaper
Love your tool selection. Don’t matter if they are not Mac tools or Matco, as long as they don’t cost you a tonne and you can make money from them. You are well on your way. Love your video. Brings me back to my humble beginnings.
Don’t every apologize for what have. You have more than I had 25 years ago. When you up grade your heel bar get the snap on heel bars. Buy two of the big and two of the smaller ones. I have used them all but the snap is superior and design.
I watched this to build my new box because I’m starting at cat next month. Nice video bud
Thanks for the support
Keep it up you will get their I have been doing it for 45 years you are doing great
My first day working on equipment on Monday definitely a good video keep it up
Good luck!
Good video you are honest and sincere. I remember the first set of truck tools I bought. OEX711 3/8 -1" wrench set. I have a tool buying addiction as well.
Knipex pliers are the best!
You are one your way! I started in 1964 working on VW's and was lucky enough to shadow with a master who had been to all the VW Schools. I bought most of what I used from Sears at the time and worked out of a carry around box but I got very good rebuilding engines. Thanks for sharing.
I work for a large rental company that does a apprenticeship. We get $20k in tools over 2 years and only have to pay a depreciated value after 2 years. It's a great thing
Im a heavy duty mechanic apprentice in mining and i use a lot of tekton stuff it’s all held up really well
Been rocking a lot of tekton stuff since day one. The only thing I’ve broken is their long handle 3/8 ratchet. Emailed them and they sent me a rebuild kit. Don’t get any better than that.
Good video nothing to be ashamed about with what you have. They work for you.
You should look at getting the stubby 3/8's in metric. They have saved me more times than I can count. I do the same thing as you. I borrow a tool 3 times. Its time to get that tool.
Keep them coming.
Love the box color, both of them! A bright orange and the tan is a great combo!
I love the color of your cart!
I've been doing it for 13 years and still don't own a single snap on tool. Gearwrench, Husky, Tekton, Chicago Pneumatic, OTC, Lisle, and a crap ton of Milwaukee all inside a Homak top bottom and side locker box. No complaints what so ever. I never have and never will own anything harbor freight though. Nothing wrong with snap on, I just never "needed" them. It is always sad to see a new tech with an empty snap on box. Tools and experience make you the money, not the box.
Ebay and Amazon 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻😂 just don’t get on there after a few beers 😂 you will have a lot of shit coming in and be in a lot of trouble 😅 good video keep up the good work
Yeap. I bot myself some wiha electrical screwdrivers.
Very true statement. Very, very true
It's nice to see a young guy like yourself with common sense when it comes to tools !
All my impact sockets and swivels are from Northern as well as my 3/4 drive sockets set.
A couple of tools I would like to recommend to you. The one set of tools that has saved me alot of aggravation are the Gearwrench indexing pry bars. The other is the HF compact 1/2 impact gun. It's not as good as my IR, but pretty close to it, lets me get into places where my IR would be much harder to use or where my air ratchets would not have enough power. The only Snapon tool I would recommend is the air hammer, love mine! Now there is another young guy on the tubes that has a Mac he calls Big Nasty, that might be just as good.
Good Luck.
Thank you!
20 years working at Caterpillar u doing a great job just set u self up with 3/4 tools some where down the road for rebuilds best of luck to you
Thanks!
I came from hvac myself fluke and mostly what I have now from gauges to meters is Fieldpiece now I’m a tractor mechanic and I’m now a huge fan of the power probe probably my new favorite tool.
Thanks for the tour. Your Matco box is Fire! I'm really into nice tools as well. I'm a journeyman Electrician, Klein tools is USA made awesomeness. Fluke is bomber too. You seem like a really good guy, I'm super envious of you. I always wanted to work heavy equipment. I like your plan on buying tools. You don't need to get into mega debt with the tool trucks. I do want to see your cart in 6 months and then 5 years!
You know the guys that make all the comments about not having a tool truck tools probably don’t have any tools at all. In the military I used craftsman tools and guys would always say you need Mac or snap on, so I would go to look at there tools and nope they would have mix match crap. I would say wtf there answer was always well my good tools are at home. Whatever tools don’t make the mechanic. You are correct the things that break you should buy off the truck. Everything buy what you can afford don’t go broke buying tools you might or might not need. Goo videos.
Thanks! Glad you enjoy them
well good luck on starting buying and setting up your toolbox . I just retired after forty years of diesel mechanic. Now I don't even open my box's.been three years. I hoping one of my grandson will take up the trade. cuz I got alot of tools and Gage's for engine and transmission. keep cool in the tool trucks.
Awesome story! Thanks!
I have the same 3x rule for borrowing things. My box is full of gearwrench 1/4 and 3/8 sockets, and wrenches/ratchet wrenches. Don't need tool truck for everything.
We all gotta start somewhere keep up the good work! that empty drawer will be filled before you know it !!
I looked up the patent stamped on the side of the pliers you were asking about. If you search vise grip locking wrench you can find them.
It's the skill and the man behind the tools 😷😷😷😷😷
Great video man! Glad to see more equipment tool box tours coming. If you continue to work in the Cat field you’ll need chrome sockets as some spaces the impact wall is too thick to get into.
The depot and Lowe’s sells the air inlet like the Mac ones. I think it’s funny when people laugh at it when you pull out a tool like your 3/4 husky. And. It blows away one they paid a lot of money for, shows who the smart guy or wise tech is. The hf deadblow can be warranted as that tool is lifetime warranty. I have seen many on the tube state this. Thanks for the tour
I have warrantied the dead low once but it seems like every time I go to HF I forget it. Haha so I just buy another one
Buy what you need and get a box you want. 99% of people buy tools and use them once lose the tool, buy a duplicate and find the tool they lost. You dont need a cramped box . good vid
Great Video 👍👍 Nice tools,, Been a heavy fleet mechanic for over 25+ years and YES I have H/F in my tool box. So anyone giving you shit about it tell them to (F) off!! 🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡😡😡👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻 And yes I have a BIG BIG BIG Snap On tool box loaded with tool.
EOT crane tech switching to heavy equipment tech in Texas here. I agree with mahority of what you've said. Especially agree about the klein diacs. All of their pliers i feel are better than snap-on and if by rare chance there is a problem with them just bring them to home depot to swap em out.
Freaking love Klein!
@@TexasEmpire same man, Klein and Fluke. I highly suggest Klein Journeyman pliers, those grips make it feel like a ferrari of pliers lol. I'm currently leaving Konecranes and will start with Hvalinka Equipment after the first of the year. So will be working on Tractors and AG equipment. Your vids are helpful appreciate it man
Hey man, great video first of all. I like hearing your point of view from this industry. I think you have a great thing started here. You have a great selection of tools so far. Oh ya the other thing THANK YOU!!!!! MULTIMETER!!!!!!!! is a must in this industry. The more people that hear that it may sink in to new guys getting in to this. keep up the good work
TheHeavyWrench thank you I appreciate it!
TheHeavyWrench Literally had a new guy tell me a multimeter wasn’t necessary to work on cars, and that he would never buy one and never do electrical. About three weeks later I upgraded to a Fluke 87V and sold him my old 115, because he kept getting in trouble for throwing parts
Kaden's Auto Diagnostics at least he figured it out. Some people are really slow learners about this 🤯
TheHeavyWrench He figured it out way faster than I thought he would, if ida been the boss ida fired the kid by now
We run a commercial trucking business, 10 plus trucks and several shops truck plus personnel and we have thousands in snap on and also harbor freight. We started buying harbor freight as it easier to get it warranty, closest snap on truck is at least an hour away. Also a lot of our snap on is from the 80s, the new harbor freight is not only nicer but as strong if not stronger than the snap on.
I just upgraded from a $200;craftsman box to a matco cart like urs but blue. Love it..
Nice wrench drawer. I only go up to 24mm, but I was only working on Toyotas.
i've been an auto tech for 15 years now, since i was 19, but i've been working on everything since i was 13. buying and collecting tools since then, upgrading every so often. for a long time i would just buy the individual tools as i needed them, still do sometimes. but i have a couple complete sets now, that were bought a piece at a time over my career so far. one set i have the Snap On 1/2" swivel sockets. i priced it out, its about $1000 Canadian. i probably have $1500 invested into it, but it took over 10 years. i probably never would have been able to buy those all at once. best swivel sockets i've ever used. i think i've broke 2 in 10 years. lost a few of them though. on the other hand i have bought complete sets of various brands, and have only ever used a few things out of them and have had them for years. and foolishly when i was alot younger i 'upgraded' everything to Snap On. but my old Snap On guy would trade in complete sets and give you great deals on the trade ins. new one forget it. but what i was trying to say, i now have a $60 000 tool box and i don't even know how much in tools, $100 000 in the socket drawer, i do know that, and honestly most of it i wish i had cheaper stuff. you get caught in the trap. its easy to get it off the truck. and we only have a couple places in this town you can buy tools, unless you want to travel hundreds of kms away. and i'm not much for online shopping after i was screwed around by ebay.
From one tool collector to another, sounds like your wife issue is impeding on your valuable tool acumen😄😄🤣🤣🤣
🖖😎👍
I organize extensions the same way on socket rails, if the peg is empty it is missing. Good way to keep track of those single extensions or ones pulled out of blow molded cases.
Fwiw, I recommend Wright Tools for wrenches and sockets. Made in Cleveland, Ohio, with American steel.
Great boxes and keep on filling those drawers up and keep us updated on your box
Good shit man 🤝
Toolbox looks solid,
I love the colour of the snap on box, looks like a really cool box. Really makes me want one haha
I feel ya. I no longer have this box. But it was a buet
What box model is it
Love to see a guy no tools snob.... Nice equipment. Good job.
Thank you for watching!
The anvil on the impact is probably fine. It’s cheaper chrome vanadium steel impact sockets that are harder and wears the rings out quicker than cr-mo impact sockets.
I know this is 3 years later lol. But instead of buying tool truck punches, just buy Mayhew. You can buy them at a bunch of different places. Most tool trucks rebrand those ones anyway
hey man those anti fatique mats are nice after walking around a concrete floor shop all day especially nicer ones. nice set up for a year in. i work on volvo big trucks at a dealership so its not quite big off road stuff but a lot of the needed tools are similar.
Yonny316 yes sir they have there purpose. Mine is just so cheap it doesn’t do much good. Haha thank you though
I like the way you approach this. So many Snap-On label queens on youtube. Giving the incoming generation a complex and ridiculous debt to the truck at 23% interest lol
Mac long bore air hammer !! They are amazing
Yes they are!
Good set of tools mate, good to see they used. Dont worry about brand, if it does the job and you have it, then thats the best tool.
Let me send you one of my JM3 oil filter wrenchs to add to that box. It won 2 awards at SEMA show last year 2021
I've watched a few of these tours and my favorite thing they all say is I got a hell of a deal on the tool box lol. I would be saying the same thing.
Right
I have a 11-1 Klein multi screwdriver set but I have recently bought the OEM tools set of pretty much the same thing as the Klein and the OEM tools has a valve stem core remover..
Caterpillar has great tools too and pretty cheap super nice I use them I. The marine diesel industry.
Been a mobile mechanic for 20 years and I’ve got all brands, some stuff I make sure to buy big quality high priced but I’ve got some stuff that range in price from as little as 2 dollars, but It was something I needed in the moment and the brand didn’t matter so I’ll use it till it breaks cause it gets the job done. I only believe in stepping up the tool once I’ve broke it. Till then it don’t seem to make much good sense
Check pawn shops and scrapyards. Found killer deals on tools in both. Pawn shops are also willing to negotiate and do layaway. The key is to be polite.
capri and trusty cook have the snap on style dead blow with lifetime warranties
Yota Doug's Tool Collecting Channel
Trusty cook makes Snap-ons hammers
Nothing beats the blue point oil change pliers. Also yes u can buy pliers outside of snap on. But the warranty . Buy once cry once. Everything else do at your own discretion.
Hey man, good video. I found those vise grips on amazon. They are Irwin 10" Vise-Grip locking wrench with wire cutter. Keep puttin up the good vids.
next time you have to replace your picks, looks into the matco picks off the truck. they are rebranded witte which is a german company who also makes matcos screwdrivers. i can push a hood latch closed with the hook pick without bending them. pretty much the best with their screwdrivers as well
Good to know! Thanks
If you’re looking to get sockets that are designed to do both as far as impact and chrome look into grey pneumatic sockets. I have them and they’re the only sockets I use anymore.
Holt Cat? Sounds like they are making the shop, so safe, that it’s eventually going to make it unsafe. Thanks Brother for an awesome tool box tour!
Nice tour! I have been buying a lot of harbor freight doyle pliers and Pittsburgh and icon sockets. And buying milwaukee power tools and a few tool truck hand tools like ratchets and hammers, picks and about to get some good pry bars.
Good choices!
Carlyle, and Astro Pneumatic,& Grey Pneumatic are good values.. Love SK Tools!
I have a abn set of round off bolt head sockets, for drilling out the headbolts drill hog left hand drill bits, and the lang rethread kit and the same brand big universal bit snap ring pliers, and the other ones I have is a $24 set of external and internal snap ring pliers set grip on tools.
Dude you got nothing to apologize about… been doing this for years still have stuff I get from harbor freight lol. If it makes sense to you, you do it.
Crazy i have been a diesel tech for 15 years and don’t have that many jumbo wrenches! I have the ones from harbor freight but gos to show you the difference in jobs I guess. I started out on front end loaders then garbage truck and now for last 8 years as freightliner tractor.
Nothing wrong with your tool boxes that have unused space, especially just starting out. You will fill the drawers up in no time if you stay with this repair career. I started wrenching professionally in 1984 in the automotive field with a mechanics set of Craftsman tools all stored in a cantilever tool box. I used that box until upgrading to a small used Snap On Classic series lower box in the late 1980’s, basically my first professional box. In 1992 or so I upgraded to more space by purchasing an upper and lower Classic series box combo. In 2016 I upgraded to my third professional box since starting in 1984, a used Snap On 68 inch Epic lower box. Through all these years I have slowly purchased more tools to fill my boxes. I can use some more storage and am looking to upgrade my one and only tool cart since purchasing it new in the early 1990’s. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a used tool cart that matches my needs in decent condition and I am unwilling to pay full retail for one. I’ve been wanting to upgrade to a bigger roll cart for a couple of years now but can’t swing new. When it comes to adding tools, buy what you think you’ll need i.e. what you know you will use a lot if you had the tool but don’t have right now. Purchase slow, steady and within financial means. Good luck!
The impact sockets in the harbor freight organizers on your cart are upside down. Flip them over and they fit better in the trays, plus the little plastic knob won't break off over time.
Hey man, your gonna do just fine. Stick with it.
Great tool set. I agree with you, there are some tools that you should by off the truck. I'm heavy duty tech, just started my own channel.
Those irwin vise grips are on target and Amazon both for around $17 !!! Good luck
I picked up a small tool box I was going to buy the single bank us general series 2 26 inch tool box but currently it's $250 it used to be around $199-$229 and I was not paying that so I bought the craftsman 1000 series USA made with global materials black with black trim 5 drawer 26 inch tool chest and it seems decent but it's kinda flimsy but my other tool box mobile setup is holding bolts for almost everything lol and weighs a ton lol, I was using a 17 inch it might be a 14 inch stack on abs plastic black and grey bottom tool box that is what is holding my bolts.. and I have to say I like the husky ratchets..I have a set of Titan brand tools yellow comfort grip handle pry bar 4 pc set, and a very nice assortment of Titan tools but sockets hex, torx, security torx Allen on magnetic socket rails that are aluminum very nice setup in my opinion and I lucked into a bulk set of two 3/8 chrome icon stubby ratchet first version I got off eBay $14 could not pass it up...
I strongly recommend mayhew prybars. I use them before my snapon ones
Hey, Capri makes some awesome torx/Allan bit sockets. You can get a whole set for a good deal, and I’ve heard their better than snapon. Also heard good things about the MAC rbt sockets too. I have SnapOn but sockets but In retrospect I wish I just got the full Capri set for 150$ instead of 1k
I just started purchasing MAC’s RBRT sets. I work on a lot of European cars at the shop I work at (Mercedes Benz, BMW, VW, Audi, Porsche, Bentley, Ferrari) and the RBRT sets I own have gotten me out of many sticky situations with rusted/chewed up bolts that would not come out using the normal tool (hex bit or torx bit). I’m happy with the sets I have and have another RBRT set on order that should take care of a clearance issue I had on a Porsche I was working on this week.
Husky has those flexible extension and if you are working on injectors on diesel trucks you'll wish you had one and I have a grip on 15 lb comfort grip handle telescoping magnet handy lol, and I have a grip on tap and die set seems decent but honestly I have seen several sets of similar versions all 110pcs so oh well..I have a older set of low power compared to what you can get nowadays mine are devilbiss air power tool company. They work. I have a suggestion for a mini sledge and a sledge hammer 2 1/2lb engineer hammer estwing $15 home depot and hyper tough sledge hammer medium length comfort grip fiberglass and molded handle sledge hammer $12 Walmart. I have a snap on ball a peen deadblow hammer because I got it from eBay for $79
Your ninja star to what ever you called it cut the center to where you have all three prongs and file the edges down then you can get in and out of tight spaces. Do it all the time working on semi's
nice tool box your. I dig the color of that SnapOn box
I got a giant set of wrenches from husky for $60, great deal but the open ends are freakin HUGE, I’m gonna get rid of them and buy some tektons
Tekton is great
Just an fyi Amazon sells those vise grips Irwin’s vice grip with wire cutters. Just picked up a set myself. Hope that helps
Good job. I realize in the mechanic world people only swear by the tool truck as if you're some how a failure if you don't have it. Dude, I buy my tools from a (Taiwan/Chinese) company. I found out through lots of research they manufacture tools for Husky, Autozone, Dewalt, and Craftsman in their facilities. They are subcontracted by Stanley Black and Decker to make a ton of their stuff. It's really incredible, plus they do make some tool truck brand stuff but part of their contract is that they cannot advertise that. I buy their house brand stuff. Not to bad.
Sometimes with snap on you’re only paying for the name, don’t let pride be the reason for your debt!
Add some double sided tape under the lining to keep it from moving works great I hate when they go back from closing the draw
When I started 30 years ago I got about $1500 worth of Craftsman tools at Sears. I got them on the notorious Sears credit card. Lord wiling I’ll have them paid off next year! 😂
Good set up, keep adding on, you’ll get there
I started a year ago, and all I got is a craftsman toolbox my uncle bought me and a filing cabinet.
For a box you don’t move around craftsman is fine but I’d try to get a tool truck roll cart. They won’t really break or get crappy and even if they do they have a lifetime warranty and are worth the money if you use them everyday.
We all start somewhere!
@@brianacoates33 I dont really have much need to move my box, im not usually in a rush when I'm working so I'm ok with going back and forth. Also our shop is really cluttered and it can get hard to move stuff around lol.
You have a good setup for only being in 1 year. I also have mostly husky craftsman and harbor freight hand tools. I only buy specialty tools off the trucks. I even have husky box and cart. I turn more hours than my snap on junkie co workers most weeks.
I work on farm equipment and yes a 2 inch wrench is a small wrench on alot of stuff
