This video is about some of the tools I use as a general mechanic that make my life easier and more efficient! #snapon #matco #cornwall #tools #toolbox #diesel #dieselmechanic
You should try one of those Snap On bit driver ratchets with the 1/4" on the other side. BLPBTW6- they also make an 8 inch version BLPBTW8. Also Ezred makes one that is a bit cheaper.
Adding some to my collection after watching this. Another good video, man! Very informative and useful. Even for motorcycles in my case. P.S.... Jelly of the box and tools.
Took some years investing thousands into it. I don’t regret it though even if I stopped wrenching for a living I’d never regret the purchases I think I would spent less on the name brand trucks and more on quality “mid grade” tools though
Cool video! I couldn’t agree more with the reversible ratcheting wrenches. I’ve seen that exact problem happen to a tech. Poor guy had backed the nut all the way out and couldn’t remove the tool and had to chop his 12mm. Snap On just to remove the fastener.
I just became a diesel apprentice and have been given hand me down everything but I want to start getting my own tools. I work on big trucks like semis, fire trucks, etc. what’s good?
Well they have a lot more teeth compared to like a gear wrench so they may not be able to take the torque that a gear wrench one would take but I prefer them in tighter areas. I’ve had to warrantee a couple of matco ones and only 1 snap on
Agree with that 1/4" ratchet choice. That round head yoke swivel is the most useful ratchet I have found.
Good video. I been diesel tech for 20 yrs and 5 of it was in the army
I appreciate the took advice. Straight and to the point. Love it

I’ve never had to cut a tool but I’ve been close! Thanks for watching! More stuff like this to come!
True almost been there too. It sucks. About to let a tool take a ride on a vehicle or destroy a tool because it bottomed out with no reverse.
How about using those tools for working on mine roller lights?
Panel tools are great for slack adjusters
Thanks
Very informative!!! Send me you Matco 10mm swivel and my Matco dealer will warranty. You pay shipping to/back and I’ll make a vid!

I like snap on but I will tell you their ratchet wrench are the worst. They have a weak mechanism.
