hahah yea posi bro... i carry a "travel kit" with me everywhere, with-in that kit, i could disassemble a full car lol. it weighs about 95lbs lol.

 

craftsmen tools are good for around the house type woke but i wouldn't use them in a shop. snap on a mac don't break they explode, true story.

 

anyone here ever been punched in the face with a 19mm socket, i have hahah it stings the nostrils

 

no but i have punched the engine by having a bolt break. there's nothing like blood and oil running through your fingers.

 

I hit myself in the face with a half inch breaker bar with an impact socket on it. I had a cracked eye socket from that one and I bled everywhere and had a black eye. Stupid RX-7!!

 

i got socked right in my piercing one time while installing speakers in my door. that wasnt fun

 

worst for me was getting hit in the face with a long 17mm wrench lol

also craftsman is good **** i use it at the shop my snapon tools fail alot more then my craftsman.

my 1/2" impact gun is the best i got a mac gun that quiet and it has amazing power. guys at the shop have loud *** guns yet they have to use my gun somtimes to break loose some bolts its like their guns are singlecame civics with ricy exhaust and my gun is a twin-turbo v-12 bently quiet yet powerful. best $280 i ever spent

 

nice discription. i know what gun your talking about. it does pack quite a punch and is very quiet. i didnt like the snapon guy who came by the shop so i didnt bother buying from him.
what kind of work do you do?

 

definitely husky for all the wrenches/sockets/screwdrivers, and dewalt for all the power tools, dewalt wayyy outlasts anything else.

 

worked at Acura for 2 years then worked at Mazda for 1 year then i moved to an independent shop and yea im looking for a new job now i hate working in an independent shop i miss working at the dealer lol.

and yea im just a mechanic i specialize in Honda Acura but you know a car is a car ive learned ALOT working at an independent shop and how trucks suck haha but yea i miss the dealer.

i got offered a job doing diagnostic work on German cars for $30 and hour flat rate.... but yea i turned that down....

 

not milwaukee or makita.

 

gonna disagree...Dewalt OWNS the power tool category..All my drills, and **** are dewalt. Never had a problem, my skill drill...FAIL..my RYOBI FAIL!

 

thats cause your an amature my mechanic friends have been using makita since before you were born i have 8+ year old Makita set i keep at the house that still works awesome 7v 3/8' impact drill and light i have a new 14v set i use at work.

the 14v 3/8" makita impact gun is the best tool i own f doing things by hand

 

I'm honored to be even called a mechanic hahahahaha.

 

Ryobi and Skil are trash.
Dewalt, Milwaukee, Makita, Snap on, Blue-Point, Mac are all good tools.
