Snap on's are superior tools..
I a snap on ratchet and i love using it... a few other snap on tools too..
But mostly craftsman because they have been good quality tools for me at a low cost.

Ideally i'd have all snap on ratchets and wrenchs. All snap on tools that can be held for us in my hand. They have such a nicer feel to them and are easier on the hands after repeated use.

i'm already thinking about calling the snap on guy up and making another purchase.

i want a smaller 3/8th drive ratchet, some 3/8th extentions, a few new pairs of pliers and one of their weighted hammers with the red handle.

i'm also looking for a mig welder...anyone have one they are looking to get rid of?

i was thinking about spending 500 or so...something that can easily weld 3inch IC piping...etc.

i almost bought the battery impact gun but then i thought about it...

and it seems like the gun itself is too big to work around in a honda engine bay. i'd just end up using the gun to take off lugnuts and axle nuts.

i'm going with air tools i think...i just need to find a quiet compressor that doesn't bother the neighbor's.

yeah, the 1/2" inch gun is pretty big, but the 3/8 isnt too bulky.
comes in so handy at junkyards.
