What I appreciate about you is you let all these technicians enthusiastically explain tools. You must have seen 100 times but you still are like "really? Wow" and don't ruin it for them.
Now this is a Master Technician. Whatever town this is is blessed to have him. A whole cart dedicated to diagnostics, he ain't no part swapper he's the real deal.
I really like your style in the way you interact with all these guys. They all have a lot to be proud of and you allow them the time to express themselves and then you make it possible for all of us to gain their knowledge of tools. A person could shop the internet for days and still wouldn’t learn what we did here today in 35 minutes. Great stuff!
He really knows all his tools, where it is, what he has. It’s incredible the knowledge he’s got! Shew! this man has very specific tools for the job, it’s awesome!
I appreciate a mechanic not being a brand snob, value in a tool based on real world experience/performance, and you providing the part numbers. Well done the both of you. Subbed!
The craziest part of this is when he said he uses a propane bottle to drive cars in the shop with no fuel issues. This guy alone is better than most well established shops.
Killer set up. I saw a couple of things I didn’t have and ordered them. The tool box tours are working as intended. Thank you for letting me look at your box. Thanks for the hard work Dustin.
Aww hell yes! Homie got some serious tools collected over the years! ive known Tomas since our days back at college in Ohio, hell its been 15+ years and well he hasnt changed i see. So wonderful to see some of us remained in the field professionally :)
This guy is an automtive tool beast! Most people have the standard stuff. I think this guy has stretched us all today with his tool & diagnostic knowledge. I will need to watch this more than once to see what I missed the first time.
This is one of the best setups so far! incredible mix of value and high end with tons of useful one off types. Great setup mate and thanks for giving us the tour.
@ToolBoxTour hands down the most informative, entertaining, and enjoyable tool channel in general. I really appreciate the part numbers and information you provide and how quickly you get the information through.
Pretty new-ish heavy diesel mechanic and I just discovered your channel the other day! It’s incredible. I used to do heavy haul/oversized loads for my company but recently asked if I can go back to a normal schedule turning wrenches. Have a lot to learn about the stuff I used to move but I’m loving the process!
His hutch setup is wild. The monitors and the lights are amazing. Great video as always. I had never heard of the cheap tools that work with Milwaukee batteries. I will be checking those out. I love my STS Milwaukee magnets.
This setup is insane.. I am excited to get back into wrenching, just sucks when your new to the trade and get paid fast food money, while still needing to buy tools , I briefly worked in auto then got into electrical, leaving electrical to give auto another shot very excited.
Good luck. If it's not too late, try to find a more specialty career. I'm machinist/ engine builder, so I turn wrenches and mess with motors all day but don't have to deal with the typical mechanic bullshit. There's not many engine builders out there anymore, most people just want to work in a performance shop and install cams and heads, but when that shit tears up it takes us the engine builders to tear it down, clean, and fix it all
@@DownHillgamer I have a really good fleet tech job lined up, but nervous cause I gotta cheat a drug test, I know I know Im such a terrible human for consuming THC
Bro if you want to make fat stacks and barely work then specialize in something and do it yourself. Start small and do the job right. The money will come.
@@markm0000 yep that is true that’s why I’m getting back into wrenching, auto tools I have no issue buying but some electrical tools hell no , just gonna hopefully get back into this shop learn and buy some quality tools they pay significantly more than any or lube tech place since it’s with the state…
2:37 this is the kinda stuff I watch your channel for never seen that but I've needed something to put a lot of stuff like that in layers and since I have that same box I'll be grabbing one of those ASAP, I think this channel put together what other tool box tours were missing, the wow factor from great camera shots, new tools, new organization types, part #s and where to get the cool stuff, and letting guys just talk about their stuff. Very well done I'm glad I subscribed a while back.
Thanks for sharing Tomas. Fantastic idea to tune up your HarborFreight US General cart to match your Epic. I did something very similar with my black 72” Masters series with black US Generals. And to be a total Snap on sob with a little help from my heat gun and some replacement chrome Snap on badges I saved a couple of grand. Lol 😝
That moster swivel extension set that was discontinued is still available under the Steelman name. Same set, different brand. It's the Steelman Pro Impact Swivel Socket Set 97886. The astro 78354 set you mentioned is an amazing set as well. I actually have had that set for a couple of months now, and it's pretty useful for certain applications. The astro 78354 10-Piece torque saver set is also sold by matco and branded under the matco name. It is the EXACT SAME 10mm-19mm set that matco splits into 2 sets for a total of $615. Yes, it is the same exact set branded under the natco adv name, and it is split into 2 sets. Both sets from matco retail for around $615 before sales tax. The astro set is around $120 and comes with a lifetime warranty!!
Another awesome toolbox tours! Please keep going brother - I was so excited to see this vid pop up, couldn't wait to get home from work tonight to watch it! I love how Tomas kept referencing your channel. I know how he feels haha so many new tools in my collection because of your channel! Looking forward to the next one!
@@ToolBoxTour I already have a damn good setup. I have the KRSC242lbp7 I think the number is. With a bunch of stuff loaded. But yeah I’ll be emailing you in the near future once my setup is complete! I’m a big fan of
The videos just keep getting better and better I’m not much of a purple guy but that setup has got me thinking about it love the channel thanks for sharing
Amazing setup! Jealous of that diag cart. It's tough to watch videos of setups like this when you're trying to keep from getting into more tool debt. 😅
probably my fav video on this channel because this guy seems more towards the diag and fixing problems rather that some other tool truck slaves with humongous snap on arsenal that try to justify their lifelong bad financial decision making,
I am 3 years into working at a diesel shop, just made it to lead tech and I am very jealous of that diag cart. I wish my shop allowed personal carts so I could get something even half as nice as that one.
@@ToolBoxTour we get company supplied 55” snap on boxes. Shop is to small for all 18 people to have carts or larger boxes. Its a 7 door shop where 3 are pass through and one single tractor bay. (Edit. We are also considered a “pm” shop but do a lot of diag as well. Company wants the shop to look “uniform.”)
12:30.. See?!.. straight up, not trying to sway your decision one way or the other..Just factually answers the question..👍 17:05.. it's called an F-style clamp or welding f-clamp
Can you find somebody at a Porsche store and do a tool box tour, there really aren’t any on YT yet. Would be cool, your videos cost me every time I watch.
I have those same wire strippers. They're amazing and cant recommend them enough. Been using mine for 15+ years and theyre only like $15. On ebay generic ones are just called 'Automatic Electrical Wire Stripper' or ' Self adjustable wire stripper' if anyone goes looking for em.
Blue molded cases take up all your space having a snapon box is expensive if you wanna add another locker top cabinet side locker that's why I went with icon upgrades cheap compared to snapon
I had a very tight itinerary so I didn’t get to visit anything. Literally 6hrs total in my hotel overnight, then did 2 box tours, then back on the plane.
What I appreciate about you is you let all these technicians enthusiastically explain tools. You must have seen 100 times but you still are like "really? Wow" and don't ruin it for them.
I do my best to let techs talk 👍
They have put so many years worth of effort into their tools. It is imperative to sit back, and let them talk.
Thats what really stands this channel out from the rest! 🙌🙌
@@ToolBoxTourare the hexagon lights Govee as well?
Yep they are
This is probably the most useful reasonable tool set up. Everything gets used everything has a purpose
Now this is a Master Technician. Whatever town this is is blessed to have him. A whole cart dedicated to diagnostics, he ain't no part swapper he's the real deal.
100%
I was gunna hate until I saw all the tools... dudes a real tech everything checks out.
I've know Tomas since the start of his career. Man has never spared any expense, always finds the best tools and methods to do any job.
Very cool. Guys like Tomas find success in anything they do. If he ever does open his own shop, I think he’ll be very successful.
Does he have his own channel? If not, he should start one.
That purple and carbon fiber goes HARD!
This guy knows his shit with the diag equipment. Most techs wouldn't even know where to start!
I really like your style in the way you interact with all these guys. They all have a lot to be proud of and you allow them the time to express themselves and then you make it possible for all of us to gain their knowledge of tools. A person could shop the internet for days and still wouldn’t learn what we did here today in 35 minutes. Great stuff!
I do my best to let people talk. Without other people showing me their setup, I wouldn’t have a RUclips channel. I owe it all to them 👍
He really knows all his tools, where it is, what he has. It’s incredible the knowledge he’s got! Shew! this man has very specific tools for the job, it’s awesome!
This guy is the real deal. Every technician should aspire to be this awesome !!!
Yess!
Paid the cost to be the MF_BOSS TOMAS
I appreciate a mechanic not being a brand snob, value in a tool based on real world experience/performance, and you providing the part numbers. Well done the both of you. Subbed!
Thank you very much!
Congratulations, this is the tupe of professional we need at the time of professional job 🎉
The craziest part of this is when he said he uses a propane bottle to drive cars in the shop with no fuel issues. This guy alone is better than most well established shops.
I agree! He knows his stuff
This guy is using 100% of his brain, I was mind blown at how simple yet over looked that statement was...
Killer set up. I saw a couple of things I didn’t have and ordered them. The tool box tours are working as intended. Thank you for letting me look at your box. Thanks for the hard work Dustin.
Thanks Mike! Yeah a few tools I haven’t seen before on this one.
Aww hell yes! Homie got some serious tools collected over the years! ive known Tomas since our days back at college in Ohio, hell its been 15+ years and well he hasnt changed i see. So wonderful to see some of us remained in the field professionally :)

This guy is an automtive tool beast! Most people have the standard stuff. I think this guy has stretched us all today with his tool & diagnostic knowledge. I will need to watch this more than once to see what I missed the first time.
His diag cart is unmatched!
That ray gun torch just made my day. Ordered 1 right away, lol.
Hah! I feel like companies would sell more tools if they made them look silly like that
This dude could fix anything. That's what they use to call keepin it real.
This is one of the best setups so far! incredible mix of value and high end with tons of useful one off types. Great setup mate and thanks for giving us the tour.
Glad you liked it!
Glad to see Joe’s Auto Electric still alive. Enjoyed his RUclips videos
the 3 layer organizer is a genius idea. wish someone made that in metal.
Metal would be awesome
@ToolBoxTour hands down the most informative, entertaining, and enjoyable tool channel in general. I really appreciate the part numbers and information you provide and how quickly you get the information through.
Wow, thanks! I appreciate that Marcus!
Those Harbor freight boxes are unreal and the extension fold out was genius 👍😎👍
I'm hunting one now lol I saw that and was literally like " that is getting bought right now lol"
Right?? Such a good idea to put it in a toolbox
Pretty new-ish heavy diesel mechanic and I just discovered your channel the other day! It’s incredible. I used to do heavy haul/oversized loads for my company but recently asked if I can go back to a normal schedule turning wrenches.

I hadn’t seen the STS magnets until this one. Definitely on my wish list!
He has the best toolbox setup I've seen yet on you show he is a true technician.
Definitely a nice setup!
Really cool channel. Tomas shared this with me this morning. It was very nice to see some of my tools shown here.
Cool tools you have there. Thanks for stopping by

As a fellow Tomas, I approve.
I enjoy that you’re getting more popular now and techs are referencing things they’ve seen here! I’ve learned a ton from everyone here too 👍
More to come!
Would like to hear from Pro Techs on Thomas in-depth knowledge diag equipment, very impressive to me...Real Deal!
He has a thirst for knowledge that’s forsure

I thought the same! Very knowledgeable and tons of tools.
This is an awesome set up! Congratulations Tomas! 👏 great presentation!
Couldn’t agree more!
This is my favourite video so far. Great guy and an amazing setup.
Already trying to hunt down a few things in the UK that I've seen here.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This guy is knowledgeable very cool tools
Tons of cool tools! His diag cart was awesome!
This is the best setup by far I’ve seen!
It was fantastic!
phenomenal tool collection, but the snap on umbrella takes the cake😂
Right? Imagine pulling that thing out when it starts to rain. You’d get so many compliments!
Amazing Diagnostic tool cart!!!! Great video.
Thanks for the visit!

Damn after all those organized drawers in the us general cart, I wasn’t expecting that messy top drawer in the snap on epiq
I’m sure he’ll tackle it soon enough 👍. Having his go-to stuff organized is much more important imo. I appreciate you watching!
Absolutely love, love, love this setup! Great tour! 👍
It was amazing forsure!
One of the most legit setups so far
Wow...i Love his setup!!
Same! Especially the diag cart!
@@ToolBoxTour yaahhh...looks like he cud transplant a head to a body..!!
Great video. All he needs now is the new US General tool box in PURPLE with black trim (reverse of the rest).
😮💨 that would be amazing
That's a quick payoff. He wasn't about to let that interest run his pockets.. 😂.. great setup..
Yeah it adds up quick if you’re not on top of it.
Every time I watch these videos my to buy list grows

Loving the black and purple
Same!!!
probably my fav video on this channel because this guy seems more towards the diag and fixing problems rather that some other tool truck slaves with humongous snap on arsenal that try to justify their lifelong bad financial decision making,
I haven’t seen no one with the teal snap on boxes I have one on order can’t wait to get it in
Aaayyyyyooooo the purple swaggg dope ass tool box set up!!! 😂 zombie ready
Zombie ready 🤣
Probably one of the tour box tour in a while.
I think you forgot a word there. But yes! I agree!
This set up is so clean!!!
I think so too! And the color combo 😮💨
@@ToolBoxTour definitely my favorite tour so far 👍🏾👍🏾
I think im going to get one of those ontel 3 tier organizers and foam it out for my extensions.
Oh that’ll be sweet!
I used the same hammer for subaru wheel bearings when i was a subie dealer tech
It’s funny. The hammer looks so small on camera. Sucker was huge
Dam I was like this guy has to much electric tools till I saw that hot stable tool ! Not many techs or shops have that on hand ! That’s what’s up

those radiator hose pliers are sweet
Yeah the ratcheting mechanism is really nice
I have the Mac HCP226 which is similar in clamping design but it’s kinda bulky sometimes. I’ll have to get those pliers.
Very nice setup. He does need lockers or a cabinet or two. Then he could gain drawer storage.
Yeah I’m sure he’ll pick up a locker soon enough. His box is black so an ICON locker would match pretty nice I bet.
@@ToolBoxTour I agree completely, the Icon would be fine and he could two for the price of one and invest that into opening his own shop.
Yeah I think since they’re black, they would blend in nice. Plus he could wrap those with purple as well.
I’m buy that air blower been wait for Milwaukee to come out with one for years
Yeah I’m surprised Milwaukee hasn’t come out with a blower or glue gun. I use that glue gun all the time

I had a very tight itinerary so I didn’t get to visit anything. Literally 6hrs total in my hotel overnight, then did 2 box tours, then back on the plane.
