- Teak may be young, but I can see such a bright future ahead of him. At only 19 years old, his tool setup rivals many seasoned techs in the field. He took full advantage of his SEP discounts and never looked back. I love these tours because these are the guys that will be paving the industry for the next 30 or 40 years. Teak, thank you so much for inviting me out! If you enjoyed the tour Teak took us on, give this video a Like!

Best of luck to him. Sounds like he got a pretty good deal. I'm retired now but when I was an apprentice the guys I worked with used to buy me some tools each month to help set me up. I still have them and my toolboxes now.
They seem like great guys, over the pond here we have to buy our own and it’s difficult being on a poor wage
I’ve heard of people giving away tools to help people starting out. It happens but not super common. I wish more seasoned techs did it. It goes a long way.
@@ToolBoxTourthat's my plan I have my home set and my work set when I retire I will donate my full 40k work set up to a up coming tech ! I can't use it when I'm dead 😎
I appreciate my dad for his original sears craftsmans, the 36mm is my favorite hammer
My buddies did the same for me and I’m grateful for them. It’s insane the amount of tools I have now. Almost done buying tools, almost.
Good to see the tool trucks giving price breaks to these young people starting out. The industry needs these people as so many of us older guys are finished, they will always be in demand. He is doing really well for a young Tech starting out.
Kinda like a drug dealer the first hit is free.......
Yeah it speaks volumes to help techs that are just starting out
I don’t get a discount whattt
Teak and his friend buying 3/8" and 1/4" torque wrench sets and then swapping each other so they both have one of each is genius! Good on him for taking advantage of deals and managing his gear. I still like pneumatic tools myself. Nothing better than an air hammer or an air saw when you need one.
Absolutely! Some air tools are still indispensable.
Love the SEP discount. I paid 3,500$ for like 8000$ worth of tools. Wish I was still in school everytime I walk on the truck 😅
Haha makes me want to enroll. Nice AP1 in your picture btw. Fellow S2k owner.
I have pretty much stopped watching "tool box tour" videos..... except yours..... yours are exceptional because you not only highlight the tools.... but you showcase some really great people..... Thank you!! Offer still stands for you to tour mine in Texas.....
Thanks! I really appreciate that. If I’m ever in the Texas area, I’ll definitely reach out! 🤘
X2, appreciate the extra effort that includes the part numbers referencing many of the tools
Facts brother me too and the quality the info of each tool the detail can’t compare and I’m a tool tour addict.. keep hoping he starts going service truck tours for us Heavy Equipment field guys… if you’re in the Atlanta Area I got a lot of service trucks you can check out
When I was a student I got like 80% of my essential tool too, I took full advantage of it lol good going Kid and nice set up 👍🏾
Yeah it almost makes me want to enroll haha
Great to see hardworking young men. Wishing you all the best in future.
Snap on line wrenches are the best on the market. They are thick, heavy and do not flex or spread. My sets are around 45 years old and have never let me down.
Thanks for the video brother. I am enjoying your tool box tours. My first video was the man with the tank setting in the shop.
Edit to add: Matco, while it is rebranded tools, they do have many tools built to their specs. Some are only available through a Matco dealer. I have a few Matco tools that are not available anywhere else. The Mac RBRT was only available through the Mac dealer, although they didn't make them. Now that the Mac contract has expired Grip edge (original manufacturer) is offering them under their name.
Thanks for sharing Randy! I have some older snap on tools that get used regularly.
not anymore.. mac tools rbrt wrenches are far better and i call them knuckle savers
Nice to see the young man take pride in his tools and boxes 👍😎👍
Goes to show that hard work pays off. Amazing setup for a young buck ... keep up the good work 👍👍👍
I f'kn love this channel, bro. You'll be at 100k this time next year, and soon, you'll be traveling the country for these videos!! What a genius idea this was!! I mean, how did nobody think of this before?!
Haha thanks Victor. I appreciate you watching! Slow and stready growth is fine with me! 🤙
Got the same toolbox at a discount from school also best decision ever
the most i've ever used e-torx on in diesel work/Maintenace. i use the e torx for the freightliner one boxes bolts for the DEF Doser (unbolting the Doser form the side of the one box) and the top bolts of a steering box on the freightliners to replace the seal on the input shaft. but still needed bu thats why i dont spend the dumb money on snap on e trox, i use them here and there no need
Nothing wrong with investing in your career with quality tools!
There is a difference between quality and overpriced and snap on is only sometimes both but always overpriced
@@smashyrashy i agree with you snap on seems to be using that as its "thing" oh were worth it so shell out 550.00 for a single 1/2' drive impact set its totally worth it blah blah blah. listen i bash snap on because they seem very predatory with their business plan lately but buying smaller things and making a few small payments to have them is a nice little thing but yeah snap on is deff. pushing the mentality its worth it shelll out that money
Good for him, hope he makes it far that’s awesome
I’m sure he will. Started there at 14 pushing a broom and is working his way up. 🤘
Was looking forward to new video since last Saturday!
Thank you Friend
✌🕶🔧
Thanks for the visit!
That Icon ratchet is adorable. It would be better as a 3/8 in the same body.
#1 Tool nobody ever mentions. The laptop with information laying on top!
I bet he not using Google and CZcams for information. Having the correct service information is a huge advantage over DIY and it’s not free. You won’t have time to fool with google or watch videos that leave out very important info.
Today the informations is worth more than all the tools on the tool trucks combined. You can get by sometimes with cheap tools, but you won’t get very far without the correct information.
Absolutely. Information and knowledge is king.
What kind of professional services are there?
Good technician right here hope he has a lot of success
Everyone i know with a set of crows foot sockets. Says the exact same thing. I haven't used them yet but when I do I know It's because I really needed them .
He's off to a really strong start, wish I had a set like that at that age. Keep up the great work man!
Love the Grandfather’s ratchet (38) tooth quote. Most of my Snap On ratchets are 36 tooth which I’ve been told are sought after however my 936’s were all purchased in the late 90’s early 2000’s. And they are still going strong to this day
Old but reliable!
7:22.. I've had those Pittsburgh long-reach hose pliers for about 8 or 10 years. They're really good. They're CrMo, and they've served me well for a long time. Never felt like I needed to replace them.....
24:28.. I would have told him no, I'm not joking. "Lifetime" means for life, right?....
Yeah I also have those pliers. The grips fell off a while ago, but they still work great.
Dude it’s so cool how much traction your getting! I don’t know if u think of it this way, but i think it’s so cool ur back in the same shops! It means the guys loved the videos and told their friends!! So cool bro keep it up
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Young talent. Thx. Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉. Why did you almost cry???
Teak said that quote when he damaged his new box 🙂
Congrats on 15,000 subscribers !
There has got to ba a line a mile long to get a job like yours !
Keep up the good work. Love these things.
Thanks! 15K came out of no where. Slow and steady growth. Thanks for watching!
Very capable young man. I bet his parents are very proud of him. I loved seeing this episode. I got home from skiing today and went straight to this channel to see what was new today! Did not disappoint.
One of the highlights of my Saturdays as well 👍🏻
I'm glad you guys enjoy the content!
Love this channel and these videos 🔥🔥
Appreciate it!! Glad you like them!
Another great video. 👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Dang atleast he’s honest with impulse buy, I do that too but with icon😅 . Seems to be a solid individual. Another awesome vid !
Thanks for watching!
"Yeah I'm a big diehard black guy" 🤣🤣🤣 awesome video
😅
Haha I heard that as well. Kid is just being silly.
😂
Would love to see you go and visit Chad’s Fab! He has many boxes and is located in Utah Valley.
I still use a speed wrench every day for putting trans pan back on mainly the ones that use cork or rubber gasket i eant to get like a super low torque electric bit driver or screw driver thing to speed it up a little then go back over them by hand
Yup that's the only way to do it. 58% off you have to take advantage of that.
I am glad I came across this channel now as someone going to school right now to become a mechanic and having a dream to own my shop down the road this would help a lot to get stuff and not be super in debt while doing that.
Welcome aboard! Good luck to you in starting out!
If you want more info on the CAT tools they have a tool catalog PDF with all the info and part numbers. I'm sure it's online somewhere.
Yup unfortunately the only way to get prices is calling a dealer. What most people don't realize, is anyone can buy them. It's just like buying any cat parts from a dealer.
Good to know!
I would like to have a dollar for every Cummins NT series over head I used the Snap On 3/8 speed wrench on. Now a days it gets used for hub caps and air to air hose clamps and now and then some door screws. The cool thing with the speed wrench is the ability to feel torque. Mine is over 50 years old, still the same as the new ones.
Love it! Thanks for sharing
Best of luck yo. Just graduated my diesel class!
Good luck!
This poor kid is going to owe his SO driver forever.
I like your videos. I think something that would be cool is to ask all these mechanics what their favorite tool is, maybe their cheapest favorite tool and most expensive and any advice they might have.
Noted!
Ahh living at home without bills... the good ole days
🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💯
I work for cat and I like there tools. Definitely a better price the snap on
Absolutely!
Damn snapping 4 sockets from that 1 set seems kinda crazy.. Ive never broke a Socket without using s a punch for a U joint.
Yeah definitely a bad batch there!
Nice set up, i know that set up cost ton of money. Lol. I still use craftsman. Im poor though. They work ight,
The Swedish pipe wrench thing he has are available from knipex in different sizes
Good to know!
Kinda regret not taking advantage of my student discount
"yeah, I'm a big die hard black guy" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😅
These companies should donate full sets of tools to these classes of kids like my electrical union apprenticeship got a full set of Klein/Milwaukee and Greenlee tools for free….$2500 worth, that’ll keep them motivated!
Hello again, Toolbox Tours
Thank you for another Great Video 👍 Question for you, How far in debt is he? To be so young with that debt. I'm glad he was able to find some bargains along the way.
I can happily say i am debt free
@@teakchristensen7900
Your wise beyond your years young man. Keep up the good work.
Investing in your vocation is a investment in yourself
@teakchristensen7900
Son, I am very glad you didn't get yourself into deep debt. Everyone, wants the Best bang for the dollar. Let the job, paycheck due the work for you 😊 No stress. Take care and stay safe! Enjoy the New Year's, Happy 2024 to you and your family 😊
Dude broke an 8mm neutral dropping his ratchet? Thats a strong lil bolt
ive never torqued a injector harness on a cummins.... if its under 80inlb its just screw driver tight man... go until it stops lol
Argh! I can't find the link for the locking non-marring pliers or wrench. I've watched like a dozen videos and can't seem to find it
Which ones? Who makes them?
@@ToolBoxTour It's from a recent video. That's what i'm asking lol. Or i'll take a recommendation from someone like yourself.
Good setup! Grip edge, like RBRT, is meant to be used all the time and not just for rounded out heads. Just saying…
Good to know. Thanks for watching!
I wish I knew what I wanted to do at 14 and not changing careers until I was 27! lmfao
Hey no big deal. Everyone’s path is different 👍
Speaking of the Icon ratchets.. I came across a short of someone that found a complete socket/ratchet set off Amazon with 2 ratchets for $10 cheaper than the Icon standard hard handle 3/8” ratchet. It’s literally the exact same thing with the SAME part number on it.. As much as I get why people are going Icon they are ripping people off on some things lol. Kinda like Matco rebranding tools all over the board.. Love the channel though as I’m a complete and utter tool whore that’s gotten back into wrenching again. Needless to say my Snap-On bill is going up weekly and he hasn’t told me no yet 🤣
Haha tool whore? That makes two of us!
Lol, am i losing my mind, or was i just watching a brand new video of the water truck and limo dude, and them the video went away and doesn't even show up on my history anymore. I thought it was my phone, but maybe you took down cause the messed-up audio
Yeah I reuploaded it in 1080P. 🤦♂️ no idea what’s going on but I’ll get it sorted for the next video.
@@ToolBoxTour okay cool
Well he will be all paid up by the time he retires at least lol most off us will still be paying hahaha
its already paid off
@@teakchristensen7900 that's what I meant love the tour man
Why does Snap On take advantage of people so bad! No way a 1/4 Rachet is worth 200! I been a mechanic for 37 years and I have Some Snap On, but would never pay their prices, just to say, Most of what I have is Snap On! Gearwrench, Capri, Sunex and others last just as long and you don’t have payments for 25 years!
It doesnt really matter how much the tools cost. Cause you have them to make you money. They pay for themselves.
I agree with you but if you have a consistent dealer they can fix it for free so if you don't lose it I am sure you can get your 200 out of it or down to a reasonable price but new tools are just as good and warranty is just as good
Just like every store, I only buy when things go on clearance. Last month my dealer had all ratchets 50% off.
@@_P0tat07_ not when you pay 5 times as much for a tool that a cheaper brand would do the job! Doesn’t make sense to spend all your money on Snap On!
Apparently, the only thing you ever worked on was Chevrolet.
Im on the wrong channel to say this but buying these high end tools at his age or any age is stupid unless youre aware youre just wasting money
He’s just investing in his future 👍
The student program is extremely good. You can get the snap on set for almost the same price as Carlyle on it. Probably not as good but still it’s like half price
Man, even these “student programs” are a racket for these traveling tool thieves! Looks like he got ‘sold’ on his “student program” thinking it’s a “deal” 😂 but he does have a sweet setup even if he’s paying $20/week for life - the meme where the snap on salesman is at the mechanics funeral with his family, they’re all in black as the passed mechanic gets lowered into the ground and the snap on guy standing in the background with his clipboard and CC swiping machine like “hey, got anything for me this week?!?”
He's debt free. Thanks for watching Mike!
Lmaoooo 😂
It is painful watching all of these and seeing how many people are out there just getting HOUSED by the snap on truck. I'm sorry your skilled trade makes you guys pay tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Its only a problem if you buy new not on promo off truck. If your smart you can pretty easily break even if not profit selling them later.
