All of these were purchased at a fair price unlike today’s snap-on prices. They don’t call a snap-on dealer the paycheck bandit for no reason, lol!

I spun back to check out some tools... bro got a lot

Thx for serving our country, he's is ocd lol

This guy’s customer focused approach is commendable.

This guy could have his own RUclips channel

I have the same Allen wrenches they are the best as an industrial maintenance technician I have upgraded my rachets to matco they worth the money

HVAC Tech or Electrician pay more than Automotive and they only need $1000 to $3000 in tools. Even if you include a brand new service van or truck, the automotive tech spends 5-10 times more on tools. It's ridiculous 😳 The auto repair tech in the USA spends the price of a new home on tools! It will never pay off because the tool buying never ends!

He may be able to utilize Milwaukee's new packout wall system for the sprinter. I was looking to need to pick up a speed handle...I may look into adding one of those motion pro t-handles. They show a 1/4, 3/8, and bit driver

its worth more than a car you guys are insanely brainwashed by a bit of stamped metal.

Finally biting the bullet on a snap on box goin for the classic 78 in a couple days.. someone talk me outta it jk I’m gettin a good deal!

I love this guys videos! I been watching them since I first got onto youtube and buying tools.

65k for a box without tools is insane, you americans really got completely brainwashed by snap on and financing tool boxes that cost an entire years salary.

Homies got the autozone 3/8 head 1/4" from the good old school duralast ratchets that were like the snap on ones with the face plate.

Bro, you better be ready to cut them ratcheting wrenches for jobs my guy! Whatever it takes.... You need stubby ratchetings.... Unless you got em already, idk! I just cut ratcheting wrenches then replace them. Kinda psycho right here.

I agree with 90% of what you said but I would recommend vintage USA made craftsman wrenches you can get for cheap and I would invest in better ratchets than gearwrench…I tried the gearwrench stuff and I’ve found it not to be durable at all, I’ve broken a few before I wrote them off.. All that being said I’m a railroad mechanic and I mainly use Proto tools and they are fantastic but a little pricey.

Also absolutely love these videos how do you pick people to tour?

I need to know how he put the snop on locks on his us general cart!

The tool box costing $40k is insanely expensive for what is just a metal cupboard and draws. SnapOn really taking the piss.

all the gear and no idea

You need to get closer

Does Mike have his own channel?

witte screw drives are the best

I'm old.. get what you need the first time to get the job done. If you find that you use it a lot, entertain getting a nicer one. Also, being old.. sometimes a better version comes out.

Those Cal-Van inspections scope is great I have one and it’s amazing for the money

The camera was making me sea sick lol

Mechanics continue to surprise me with just how much stuff one could have.

What brand and type of lift is that

This Guy has a wealth of knowledge, obviously very keen and loves what he does. I see a lot of older guys and I use the term older very lightly 😂 who just turn up amd grab there wages at the end of the working week/month. And that's absolutely fine BUT work is so much more enjoyable when you love what you do... find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life 👏 brilliant video 👌

You can get 25 percent off those icon sets till the 7th i believe

Has this van done any jobs yet? Nothing against clean. Trust me. But this stuff is brand new?!? Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉

I absolutely love my 72” tool vault.

Despite this guys absolute blind fanaticism with harborfreight lol, I respect what he's done by taking the leap and growing his business. He seems to put a lot of thought and logic behind his choices and I have nothing but respect and admiration for what he's doing.

You just know this fella is going places 😎😎👌🏻

im not sure, but i think this guy like milwaukee

A guy with some common sense!

He’s got his priorities straight. This is a good video for new guys thinking they can only be successful if they have the most expensive tools. I used to think like that and it wasn’t healthy.

Seems to be a pretty good setup. Good luck to him.

Nice. Good luck man. I’m a mobile marine diesel mechanic. I’ve been for over 23 years and about 18 years self employed. I have more work then I know what to do with. It takes time to get your name out there. I think your approach is smart. Over head is the number one killer in small business. Keeping your cost down at first is a good idea. Great video.

him giving you that knife was the coolest that guy is awesome! and that knife is sick.

Amazing setup wow!!! ❤

Just been watching all your old stuff when I was waiting for this to come out and dang your videos have gotten so much better

Great video bud. As a small engine tech, haven't heard someone call the pull cord the emergency cord, haha.

Some one new in the trade first ask your trainer or foreman what tools you will need it most, you can find some good deals on flea markets and even amazon. Wrench and socket it all depends what will be your specialty like heavy duty refinery shit you can't compare that with someone working in cars or aviation.

Did he just set this up this morning. Everything look like it's never been used 🤔

You gave reasonable advice, but I lean more towards skipping the intermediate step and starting with the premium tools. The best tools will significantly out perform the intermediate tools and will last a lifetime. By all means, DON'T GO INTO DEBT to purchase tools. Purchase quality used tools to economize. You younger guys are buying in a market today that offers some attractive alternatives than my age group didn't have availabile. Off shore tool brands are available that seem to copy and attempt to enhance the features the trusted major brands used to only offer, and for tempting lower cost. Individual tools or specific sets or styles from these makers can be winners, but be cautious that service after the sale is less standardized and reliable than established major brands. Your comments are directed to the entry auto tech, and most of the RUclips tool comparisons that I see share that focus. Many of your recommendations are auto tech specific. Your recommendations are valid with your specific focus. My entire career was maintenance, starting commercial about 10 years, then moving industrial for 35. My skill set demands covered many trades, but tool requirements parallel auto techs. My recommendations are to skip the HF intermediate step and purchase the Snap-On wrenches, ratchets and sockets ASAP. Purchase Knipex pliers and Klein pliers. Klein is a premium plier for an affordable price. Knipex is simply hard to beat, is more affordable than Snap-On, and usually more ergonomic. Avoid fat comfort grip and insulated pliers. Go for the thin plastic grips like most of the Knipex and Klein. Look hard at PROTO pry bars with line up pin on the handle end to economize rather than buying hard handle pry bars. You get a dual function tool, requires less tool drawer space than the dark handles, and they are very fine tools. Mayhew is a better mid grade pry bar. Save your pennies and step up to Snap-On hard handles when time for the pry bar upgrade. Skip the alternative DMM and purchase Fluke, but do your research and only pay for the features that match your needs and your competence. Fluke has a dizzying array of options, but all will come with premium leads and accessories. There are lots of fine hammer options, but steer clear of HF. The major auto tool brands probably outsource or rebrand their hammers. Estwing, Vaughn and Trusty Cook are major hammer brands that can save some initial cash. Snap-On has their own brand and style of deadblow hammers. I own at least 15 from this series. Every one out performs the competition for function and weight to size ratio. They are costly, but study their options carefully and select styles that match your work demands. Wooden handled hammers are notorious for the head loosening, so I favor other handle options. Auto techs don't swing a hammer enough to warrant wooden handle elbow injury prevention. In general, tools should be strong, slender, sleek and long for leverage and clearance and ergonomics. Snap-On makes the best screw drivers. The tips are machined to fit fasteners and resist wear. Klein is my second choice. They are designed for the electrical industry. They are less rugged than Snap-On, but are much more affordable. Their rubber over plastic handles aren't ideal for oily mechanic work, but they are a quality tool at a moderate cost. Buy complete sets with no misses. I favor two sets of combination wrenches over box and end wrenches. Buy long wrenches like the standard Snap-On wrench size. Most other makers shorten their standard sets sacrificing leverage and purchase.

Love the bauer im a heavy diesel tech and not running Milwaukee you get the side eye from the old guy but they havent let me down and a 2 5amp hour battery pack and charger cost less then a single 5amp hour m18
