although he could easily afford one, he put his money into the tools and backup tools.Įvery single screwdriver, wrench and socket had his initials engraved in them. He kept his debt down by not splurging on a huge box. with good organization, he had everything. His box was a simple bottom and top with a side locker.
Who makes tool bixes for mac professional#
My uncle was a professional diesel mechanic for 34 years. you get to wait a while or go hunting for a matco truck. matco makes good stuff, but where I live, matco trucks are few and far between. You can get a huge setup for under $800 and it'll be a great starter setup.įor Handtools, I'd splurge for the Mac or snap on. I'd consider Costco or even (gulp) Harbor Freight. also gives bragging rights and status, probably even ego and pride.
Yeah, it's nice to have snap-on, matco, mac, etc. I would seriously consider trying to NOT get into massive debt with tools, especially from the tools trucks. Am I right on this? I understand people who possess $20,000+ in tools may buy a more expensive box, but at the starter level, do I really need anything more? Thanks!
Who makes tool bixes for mac plus#
However, I started looking around and came across this REALLY? An $1100 difference, for what is basically the same thing? I don't see any way the Matco is worth that much more, plus it has the wooden top that Matco does not. The one I had my heart set on from Matco was a 54" for $1400 after discount. I am looking for a 52"-54" double bay box. Plus, 50% off and they are cheapest (Snap On comes in at $2700, Mac at $2400 and Matco at $1700.) Plus, I need the lifetime warranty. As I need a large number of tools, I am buying those from Matco, so I don't have to but them all individually.
The tools are very specific, and Snap On, Mac, and Matco all offer 50% off their tools and boxes. Of course, this means I need a list of required tools, and a box. Hey all, so as some of you may or may not know I am enrolled in Diesel Technology college starting August of this year.
