For a long time in my area all we had was a Cornwell and a Mac dealer. The Cornwell guy was the most reliable and had the best stocked truck so I bought a lot of stuff from him. It’s just the past couple of years we finally got a reliable Snap On guy.
I always feel like you guys were very...exclussive. Ive never been in an area to see a Cornwell truck, never saw a Cornwell tool. I havent seen Matco trucks in person either, but at least theres some trick of tools and boxes (which I have). Nice to see some variety. Just a shape about Mac recently though...
@@bosborn1 None down outside NYC either. We do have SnapOn and Mac. No Matco though...Id say I wish there were more dealers but from what I researcher, its a raw deal these days, some worse than others.
Great tour. Very interesting and informative on not only what it is but why you use it. You didn’t over explain anything, and you can tell that’s a collection that gets put to work. I subscribed also. I want to see videos for the variety of equipment you work on. Good job 👍🏻
Thanks for the compliment. I do need to start posting some more videos of the stuff I work on. The problem is I’m generally working on stuff in a time crunch and don’t have the time to do a video. But I will try to get a few more in the future.
What do you do for work? This was one of the most interesting toolbox tours I've found. I'm a mechatronics technician for a industrial company and you have a very similar amount tools for the wide variety of things we do. Very interesting! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the compliment. I do a little bit of everything. At this point I sort of specialize in electronics for vehicles and heavy equipment. On the side I rebuild and sell golf carts, I also have a lasertag business. I do fabrication, laser cutting, and 3D printing also. And from time to time I do stage lighting, show controls, DJ’ing, and multimedia presentation. The vehicle work I do tends to specialize in diesel trucks and European diesel cars. I kept the super nerdy stuff like my bench scopes, tone generators, and microscope out of the video as it’s pretty off topic for most toolbox tour stuff.
@@bosborn1 We do a lot of re-controls on machines and work with 0v-24v systems regularly, so a lot of that electronics tech and tools was refreshing to see, especially in a sort of "do all" toolbox tour. I work mainly with industrial machine tools and Fanuc robots. Automotive is mainly a hobby/side gig for me but I love tools no matter what they are used for. You definitely seem to have a wide spectrum of interest and abilities. Subscribed! Looking forward to more. Thanks for replying!
@@brodyadams04 Controls are probably my favorite sort of work. I learned on Modicon And Allen Bradley PLC’s over 25 years ago. I now build controls and micro controllers for swimmimg pools and fountain shows . I do a fair bit of VFD integration for pumps also. Maybe you saw some of the goofy things off to the side in my video. Things like that 50VDC 1 farad capacitor, the entire bin of Arduino nanos and Pi Picos, the old crt scope, and a Tesla coil. I use to have a lot more stuff like that as my Dad worked for Wang Laboratories back in the eighties. I got to take apart lots of cool 70-80’s industrial computer stuff.
Great selection of tools you got. I too had issues with my Sunex made Cornwell cart. I moved up to a pro series thinking It being made by Cornwell in house would be a solid box but it too has its quirks. Coworkers have had a lot of slide issues with their pro series and platinum series boxes. Cornwell makes some great hardline tools that rival any of the heavy hitters like snap on wright, proto etc, but their tool boxes leave a lot to be desired. Which is unfortunate cause they’re competitively priced and they’re made in the same factory as the indestructible Kennedy machinist boxes.
Could the Snap-on wire holder for soldering tool have the wing nut on it for a soldering positioner like you showed at the top of that box? The American made yellow "dmx" work holder (helping hands). Hope this made sense
@@KDB7275 gearwrench made a pocket pry bar years ago I still got a couple I haven’t lost but you can take a pocket screwdriver put it in a vice and take a hammer and make your own
90% of what I do is just recover. We primarily build for rental fleets. Why spend the money for nice sewn stuff when the renter is going to destroy it in less than a year.
Hey... Just saying I'm not sure about new models. But maybe you are having such a hard time with old Ram ball joints because you are using a press... Mopar ball joints are SCREW in... NOT press in. Atleast that's how they used to be. You need a set off 3 sockets to fit Chrysler ball joints from the early 50's till atleast 2000 or so. Mostly you only need the larger 2 sizes. They are a special giant square socket with round corners. Un tightening old rusted in ball joints and getting them to screw out is very tough too. Always need 3\4 drive and a 4-5 foot pipe on the thing.
It sucks when you watch a toolbox tour video on yt and all you hear is the person explaining every single tool like no one knows what they are used for lol.
Hopefully that’s not what I am doing. I like to say a few things about my most favorite pieces. Kind of just a brief description of why I like them so much.
That pair of scissors was cool and very impressively made
FINALLY someone with Cornwell stuff, great video brother
Thanks

@@RipRoaringGarage It’s just varies based on region. Never saw a Cornwell truck in upstate NY. But here in central NC Cornwell is a big deal

Man!! I don't think you are lacking any mechanic tool. Nice tool tour, thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
Great tour. Gold information & content. Showing some support to a fellow tradesman
Thank you
You are set up great!
Cornwell looks like good stuff. Never seen it up in Canada.
Great tour, lots of goodies in your box
Thanks

Well done! You can tell you have a lot of experience, great set up man!
Thanks, I still think of myself as a novice trying to learn as much as I can.
You have a really nice set up!!
Thanks!
Neat to see Cornwell👍👍
The flat screw on your Snap On soldering tool is to hold it in a vise.

@@bosborn1 LOL. So it was a capacitor! I actually freeze framed it and talked myself out of thinking it was an elaborate bong.
Nice boxes I have the same US general box

I ordered cornwell locking impact exttensions and I still haven't seen them.
It seems like that is how it’s been with Cornwell lately. They put stuff on sale that they don’t have enough stock on.
Great tour lots of interesting stuff. Thanks for letting us all L@@k unside.:]

I understand what you mean. I’ll try it to see if it’s functional.
Thanks for sharing. Can you tell me what the tool number is on the extra long 1/4 snap on ratchet you like so much for doing timing covers. Thanks
THLLF72
What's the part number on that 10mm with the magnetic
MMS0210R
@@bosborn1 thank you
What’s the part number for the tool cart
CTBF476KG is the neon green box part number. They have them in other colors as well.
I can’t be the only one who doesn’t think the pocket screwdriver is the greatest tool out there then maybe it would be a pocket pry bar
Mac makes the pocket prybar part number PN2C and matco just released a 3 piece set part number PPG3K
@@KDB7275 gearwrench made a pocket pry bar years ago I still got a couple I haven’t lost but you can take a pocket screwdriver put it in a vice and take a hammer and make your own
I can’t remember who it was but I know a company made a titanium keychain prybar that looked really awesome.
Dude... Do more videos of your work
Do you just recover seats or do you use an industrial?
90% of what I do is just recover. We primarily build for rental fleets. Why spend the money for nice sewn stuff when the renter is going to destroy it in less than a year.
@@bosborn1 do you find people local? It’s next to impossible to get that work done in my area unless you just buy a new whatever
@@stitchthisditchthat259I don't have to look, work finds me.
“Because it looks cool” is a terrible mindset to go on a tool truck with 😂🤣
I know, I tend to avoid that kind of thing normally. But I have my weaknesses. Every now and again I get sales’ed.
@@bosborn1 I’ve never had any tool truck experience. But I’ve been the same way with my snap on student discount😂
I need to stop watching this video. Its making my list grow of tools I need. lol

Hey... Just saying I'm not sure about new models. But maybe you are having such a hard time with old Ram ball joints because you are using a press... Mopar ball joints are SCREW in... NOT press in.

I’m talking about the 03 and up body styles. I don’t see many of the older trucks. The last two generations of the Rams have press in ball joints.
