Hi there, great video it was nice to see a tool box tour from someone in the UK for a change as most I see are all Americans!
Thanks Mike! Just something a little different, only started doing these videos recelty so all new to me. Thanks for watching
@@Darrall59 Hello mate, was wondering if you would recommend the Sealey BG1010 Mini Bench Grinder or a different one for me to buy as I am currently looking for one for myself as I am a casual DIYer?
@@jamalhussain9162 yeah would recommend that for sure! Perfect your casual diy
@@Darrall59 thanks, helped me decide on this one and its a good price on eBay. Wouldn’t have realised to look on eBay if it wasn’t for your link.
Beautiful, very nice Snap-on toolbox and tool collection. Very nicely organized too. Thank you very much for sharing your toolbox inventory with us! Keep on building that beautiful tool collection.
Gregg Critter Muse
Greeting from the USA! Snap-On corperation is 25minutes from my door. Beautiful box, congratulations !!
Time for a hutch/riser! Thx for the show and tell. I love an organized tool box. Especially with Snap On Tools.
Organized = Efficient 😁
Really nice setup...thanks for sharing 👍
I think your tool box is amazing it looks like it works for you
I absolutely love my snap on lights (torch) hands down the brightest lights made super durable.
That color is perfect! Great choice!
Nice Set up! Thanks for this!!!
Thanks for watching!
Nice setup my friend!
Fantastic video thanks for sharing
Nice setup
Quality box and quality video 👍🏽
Thanks for watching! Let me Know what you guys want next
Nice box bud not many UK guys doing tours I have the new guy Martin stack I love the storm grey colour with the orange on it must say the grey and black looks tidy
Great video and very honest re the price of Snap on compared to other outlets. I naver knew Amazon did automotive tools. Many thanks. Mike. Norwich, UK
Thanks Mike! hopefully I'll get some more videos up soon, thanks for watching
Thanks for sharing
Can't see many gaps here, good setup!
Always buying kit though! I have a rule borrow it twice then you buy it 😂, thanks for watching
Sealey do a little aluminium magnetic cob light like that for about £30, part number is Sealey LED700P. Hope this helps.
Great box and tools..the Astro light is much better then snap on, I have both. 👍🇺🇸
I have both also, was so much cheaper and battery lasts longer! Will be buying more of their range. Thanks for watching!
I love your box bro
Cheers Steffen! I'm really happy with it currently, thinking of adding a hutch but not doing so until I can just but it outright. What box do you have?
I got the new 100 year Anniversary epic…… it’s on my RUclips page…check it out……… do you have to get the top and lockers!!! I got a powerlocker on the way over 6,000 tho and that’s just one…… but my box was 22,000 plus tax
Love the box ! I work in a Hyundai dealership too was interesting to see what different tools you have.
Cheers man! Yeah toolbox videos are golf for seeing which kit you need but didn't know about. Thanks for watching
@@Darrall59 you guys doing a ton of 2.4l engines in the UK too?
@@Jordan-ym5gf no all out engines are good! Being the uk many are lower cc like 1.0,1.2,1.4 and most are strong! To be honest though best cars Ive ever worked on, seems the manufacturer thought of us techs!
@@Darrall59 that's crazy dude. Until this whole Corona virus shit started we were doing 5-10 engines a week on average.
@@Jordan-ym5gf that's mad! Hopefully this thing blows over quick, I have 2 more videos to be filmed. People want one on the new bluepoint cart I have! Stay safe
Uk loves snap on too
I LOVE 💕 😲 that color
Great video! Could you do a tour of the tool cart? I would love to see what the inside looks like.
Sure, if I'm honest was delivered about 3 days prior to filming so I've not yet organised it all, any other recommendations?
Darrall59 I too want to see the tool cart. It’s a new cart that came out this year. I want to see the depth and height inside the slide tops.
You asked, I listened! Tool cart video now live
Good to see not only snap on in your box.I am the same..
What kit do you mostly use?
Snap on, mac, silverline, Halfords, neilson big prybars, some german big spanners 32, 34, 36, mm some no brand cheapie spanners up to 50mm. us pro, sealey. Cant think of any more at he moment
@@michaelmatthews8171 I've had a few good silverline bits that I only use a few times! That's a really Good variety of kit
Have some silverline spanners to double up sizes to use on hydraulic fittings never had a problem with them, would be better if they made bigger sizes as the biggest they do is 30mm or 32mm.
Another fellow hyundai technician (apprentice) from northern ireland✌🏻
Awesome man! Good to meet you
@@Darrall59 just subscriber... hope you keep up the automotive videos man
@@LN-vs8yc first one man, made other videos but first automotive one!
I mean keep doin them bro
@@LN-vs8yc I'll do one on the tool cart when we're allowed back into work (virus lock down) thanks for watching
You should buy a black lock cylinder protective cap from snap on it cost $15. It protects the lock cylinder and makes it look way better with all black trim.
I'll get one on order, cheers man
I just bought a master series in storm grey black trim. Love it. I love your tool cart too I’m going to buy the same. That’s a blue point rebadged to snap on right? What’s the model number. Thanks.
Tiger Eye video now Live for the tool cart!
what is the part number of the UV torch and the soldering iron - both snap on
Nice.
Thanks for watching!
Can you give a link or part # to that rubber mat on your worktop? Thanks brotha
Try the millwukee fuel impact guns
What is the part number for the snap on Mat on your box?
Awesome tool box and tour!! I like the snap on rubber mat on top! Do you have a part number to it?
What socket trays do you use
It sounds like my grandson is going to take the same route as you and is hopefully starting Fylde College this year if the world survives the apocalypse. It did his great uncle, my brother, no harm as he started as an apprentice for Leyland Motors, now has an Engineering PhD and is a uni lecturer. I don't believe academia, A levels, degrees etc are necessarily a sign of intelligence as much as on the job problem solving is.
This is the first Snap-On review I’ve seen from the UK, a well laid out kit. Do the big vans travel round like they do in America? I might start on my shopping list now to give to my grandson.
Hi Mark,
I'm sure he'll do great, aslong as your passionate enough about cars and people he'll fly through his initial training and job offers! So for tools we have smaller vans/small lorries not the huge lorries like in the US they are enough to fit a decent amount of kit in though!
I think you should start looking for bits for him, I'd suggest like garage sales ect, Cheaper kit first then replace it with more expensive and take the older kit home. Having expensive kit sure is great but it's way better to have a large variation in tools to make your more productive.
Thanks for watching!
Sorry about butting in on your conversation, but I have some insight on your question. Yes, I am from American. Yes I am an automotive technician & made my 1sr Snap-on tool perches way back in 1985. Yes i have a Snap-on toolbox & tools & yes I have traveled to 21 other countries. In the tool world there are really 3 major tool companies with tool truck (Snap-on tools, Mac tools, & Matco tools). There are a few other tool companies in some places in America with tool trucks 2 of the other companies that I've had are S & K tools & Cornwell tools. I've heard that there are more but thats all that I've personal seen. I've bought Snap-on tools off the Snap-on tool truck in Mannheim, Germany & Snap-on tool (store) in Kawait City, Kawait. Snap-on tools are sold in most countries around the world. With all that being said I agree that as nice as Snap-on tools are, as a entery level technician, total quantity of tools is more important that quality of the tools to a certain point but junk tools that break the 1st time you try & use them are just a total waist of money. Craftsman tools, Gearwrench tools, S & K tools, Proto tools, ect... are all a better choice for a beginner. I learned that the hard way (expensive way)! LOL To give you an example, when a Snap-on 15mm combination wrench (spanner wrench) will cost you around $60-$70 USD as opposed to $10 USD for say a Craftsmen 15mm combination wrench (spanner). Well it's a no brainer to buy the Craftsman tools when i can buy 6 - 7 times as many Craftsman tools as opposed to Snap-on tools. Just so you know that i do know what im talking about and not just blowing smoke up your behind, you can see my toolbox inventory here on RUclips @ Critter's Snap-on. Your grandson is very lucky to have a grandfather like you! I bought every tool I own. Sorry to but in on your conversation Mark but as a person that has been buying Snap-on tools for almost 40yrs I felt compelled to weigh in & put my 2 cents in.
Gregg "Critter" Muse
I still have my Halfords ratchet spanners 15 years ago still going cost me 50€ the make good stuff
Good thing about those guys I'd you go in and they'll change it on the spot with a new one, no waiting around for warranty! Thanks for watching
First time I used my 15mm Halfords advanced ratchet spanner it broken, luck of the draw I suppose
@@sidrandall2849 for sure luck of the draw still have mine from 8 years ago when I started out in the trade, admit build quality doesn't match Snap-on however
What was the brand on your side cutters with a slightly bend handle?
The long handle ones? Most are linked in the video description!
Thanks for watching
That was a great video love the fact you haven't just got snap on tools I've got a lot of Halfords neilsen Bergen/us pro tools tools just because I can't really afford snap on my toolbox is Halfords professional I've had it for 14years and still going strong could you maybe do a day in the life video of your work maybe some time lapse video 👍
Hi thanks man! Tools are expensive, you don't just have to buy snap on however some deals are really good when they come around, I really rate halfords kit but what I would say make sure you get a trade card with them for the best prices, I'm sure I will do a video like that in the future! Thanks for watching
Make sure you check out the links all the kit is listed on amazon - Will
@@Darrall59 thanks mate
Its not showing me the part number for the mat on top of your box, do you know the number?
What socket rail have you got for your large hub nut sockets?
Its a generic ebay job, just search socket rail and youll see it
Very nice toolbox, love the colour. But as a mechanic from Sweden I i think its strange to buy your own tool for your workplace
Yeah alot are moving towards built in toolboxes but it's still majority don't supply kit or storage, thanks for watching
I've been totally on the fence starting as an apprentice next year as I'm set to qualify as level 3 next year or as an entry level tech. The pros of being a tech is better money for more tools, I imagine I'd learn the same but that apprentice wage is pittance and I'd be really struggling on it when I leave my part time job. What would you recommend I do as my "progression coach" at college is about as helpful as he sounds. Unis not really my cup of tea, I need practical experience and cashflow now rather than in another 3 years. They're pushing race team degrees but ive seen enough premier inns and race tracks, not for me. cheers
Apprenticeship is the way to go, your only worth as much as the skill you have. Keep your head down learn from the people around you. Race qualifications aren't worth much these days to get into f1 ect its requires engineering degrees ect.
If your level 3 approach your local main dealers and ask for experience in exchange for a days a week free labour!
My advice.. If they shout training raise your hand the highest..
@@Darrall59 thanks for getting back so quick. Are the better manufacturers like Audi and bmw compared with Kia for example better to work for? I live 2 roads away from a ford dealership that my friends uncle owns, ill have a chat with him first out of convenience. Thanks again
I dont belive in brand specific, pick a brand you see makng changed you are interested in, for instance electric vehicles.
Yeah I'd have a chat first for sure
@@Darrall59 thanks for the advice, you should really make a few advice videos as there's next to nothing out there that talks about getting into the industry especially from someone who really knows what they're on about and from the UK. Obviously in depth tutorials like some of the Americans make are out of the question when you've got a real job but I reckon you could just talk while you work on something just for background with a pov gopro if you've got one would be brilliant. You could start with a FAQ video for example, it should be pretty limited editing aswell. Anyway, I won't waste anymore of your time, cheers mate.
Have you thought about switching to Milwaukee power tools?
Gave it serious consideration, but until mine gives up on me I won't make the transition! Have you had any luck with them?
Darrall59 price wise compared to snap on. I definitely prefer Milwaukee power tools. The M18 and M12 line up just keep getting better and better.
@@mysterycomment1553 that's interesting! I'll speak to my Mac dealer who stocks them maybe he could do me a trade deal
I used to only buy the snap on electric tools
I had the 1/2 impact 3/8 impact 3/8 ratchet the 1/4 hex driver and the 14.4v drill
After a lot of warranty issues and the batteries being stupid expensive to replace
I bought everything in Milwaukee haven’t had an issue and was able to buy 3 of the 12v items for just under what the cost of 1 14.4v Snapon item would cost
I prefer the Milwaukee ratchet over the snap on due to the size an the trigger
Only complaint is the 12v 3/8 impact is no where near as powerful as the snap on 14.4v that thing could take of a tourqued wheel nut without sweating on it
Where did you get the Snap On mat from ?
Snap-on dealer direct. I belive it was a promotional item as I have no part number on it!
@@Darrall59 Okay. Thanks Darrall.
Which fluke tester have you got? I couldn’t see in the video
I'll get the name and part number tomorrow when I get to work
It's a Fluke T130 voltage tester for hybrid vehicles pn 4016961
Darrall59 what insulation tester do you use?
I was always told dealerships got supplied their own tools? Is this true? I’m currently a service tech at kwik fit and looking to change over to a dealership there’s a Hyundai by my house so might try there
Do you live in the US? If so, you’ll need to furnish your own tools and tool box. Some shops might supply specialty tools or large drive tools but that isn’t guaranteed.
@@AlexMaysonet no mate Uk
Does anyone make a dead blow ball pein hammer like Snapons? I can get a regular plastic dead blow at most places but haven’t seen any ball pein dead blows anywhere.
Not really had a look to be honest, a good amount on Ebay though!
How deep are the drawers?
Hi Bill,
Only just seen this sorry, the big draw is really deep, I'm not sure how deep you need them but if I were to buy again my advice is get 2 big draws, the spanners are to high to fit in the more shallow draws.
What Hyundai dealership are you based at Will
Hi Matt, UK - Leicestershire based
What’s the part number for the snap on mat
Hi Javier
With what's going on currently my dealer is not answering his phone. But I will get you this part number for sure when I can
Thanks for watching!
Darrall59 thanks I would appreciate it brother
I've never heard of anyone ziptieing the seat covers back on. Must be a UK thing
We used to use the micro ties but now I've Brought the proper hog tie kit, crazy how easy it makes it all!
Nope not just the uk our shop here in Missouri does it when replacing ram heater seat elements.
That tool box probably cost more than a mortgage on a house 😀 really nice though can’t beat snap on but unfortunately these days your paying for the brand not the tool quality
I work for kia all we do is engines
Haha no doubt man! UK or US based?
@@Darrall59 us new york
Never understood why mechanics buy their own kit, like i get you respect the tools more and and buy what you like but if you work at a main dealer service centre surely they should give you tools. Like if i went to work and a giy in a van offered me a better seat for 49.99 a mnth and a better stereo 32.99 and whatever id laugh at them, in there to earn money not spend it.
I’d rather die then own snap on impact guns ! Always Milwaukee
Bit extreme 😂
@@Darrall59 we have the same box tho bro ! It’s a lovely box man
