What you were saying about the tool trucks regarding relationship and warranty. It's crazy that there isn't a standard for warranty across the franchises. My buds have even told me about snap-on trucks that won't warranty tools if you didn't buy them specifically from him. Absolutely crazy.

Yup that 3/4 ratchet looks exactly like my snap on ratchet

I have to keep an eye on my daughter… she keeps swiping my tools.. lol nice toolbox tour bro! 👍🏻

Can we please see a current tool box tour😍😍😍

Great haul, and thanks for sharing the CAT part numbers for the rebranded Snap-on stuff. That 4th mode in the Milwaukee I thought was for ensuring you don't over torque the bolts/fasteners. I didn't think it provided any more power than the 3rd mode, but I could also be totally incorrect..

@TexasEmpire

It does both from my experience. Provides less torque when fastening and more torque when removing.

Nice haul, I like the rebranded Snap On tools 🤘

You won’t be disappointed going to the dark side with your picks use my same set since I started only bent or broke tips 2 times and both was bc I was using them for something I shouldn’t, lots of by co works run gear wrench and cornwell I like both but the brake far more often than my snap on

I have that Mac axis 13" 3/8,it's literally the best one I've ever used. Also have the snap on 3/4

Even though I don't own MAC, I do however own Proto. Proto is one of my favorite brands. A lot of MAC tools do carry over into the Proto line. The Proto precision 90 ratchets are essentially the same as MAC Axis ratchets. Proto and MAC wrenches share the same ASD design. Proto and MAC do share the same screwdriver line known as Duratek. Both brands have the Anti-vibe ball peen hammers. Both brands use the RBRT bit system. The socket profiles do differ. Stanley Black and Decker owns both Proto and MAC. The cool thing is you can buy Proto off Amazon. Their warranty is excellent same as the MAC. Also Napa does carry proto if you special order them. A lot of things that are labeled Proto you do pay less than the MAC labeled products. For the new guys out there, if you can afford Proto, it's worth it. Williams is another brand to consider too. They have the exact same tool sets as Blue Point. They also have older Generation Snap-On tools. Williams is fraction of the price to Snap-On.

Snap on comfort grips feel a lot better, I think they have 2 different sized comfort grips as I had 2 3/8 ratchets in comfort grip but they had different size comfort grips. Something to keep in mind, if the dealer wont warranty a dull bit just break it lol.

I held a snap on one for the first time this past Friday. I really liked it. Thanks for the info!

there are so many tools i would love to have from other dealers but sadly we only have the snap on guy at our shop, good thing is though is that he is an amazing dude so i guess that makes up for it, would rather have 1 amazing tool dealer than 2 or 3 ok or bad ones

Seems to be the norm that a cat tech will film videos for a while and then the company puts the kibosh on it. I wonder why Adept Ape gets away with it? What's the reason they give? Probably some sort of general legal issue.
