- Tour of my 68" Snap-on Epiq series toolbox. Power drawer, power bed lined top, black with titanium trim. I have had this box since mid summer and has been a huge upgrade over my previous Snap-on 55" classic series box. Not all of my tools are in this box but a good majority are. Forgive my poor filming abilities and enjoy!
Nice setup! Here is a few must have tools that I didn't see, snap on 1/4 drive indexing ratchet, snap on seam ripper for opening wire harnesses, rolling head pry bars, Mac 3/8 impact extension wrench, Power probe 3, a pair of blue point in-line spark testers, laser temp gun (quickly check and compare exhaust Temps between cylinders), auto center punch (for removing float pin in carburetor), impact driver, air hammer, carbide gasket scraper, Bionic wrench (for removing stuck dowels without damaging them), hose pinch off pliers for fuel and coolant lines, fuel pressure tester, ultrasonic cleaner (for carburetors), manual pump type oil/fluid extractor, Lisle 47900 hose removal plyers (for stuck fuel lines). Anyway that's just a few time saving tools that come to mind.
I appreciate the suggestions! Ive got a handful of other tools in the Craftsman box but 90% of what you listed I don’t have. Ill look into what you listed for sure. Thank you 🤙🏼
One of the best toolbox tours I’ve seen
Hey Blake. In iowa we have a hardware store called lowes. I take my craftsman stuff their grab the same tool off shelf and got to costumer service and they warranty it no questions asked
Also went from a 55 classic to a 68 epiq myself. Couldn't be happier
Ayyyy. Honda tech over here on the east side of MI 🤙
Your tools are so clean. I don’t know how you do it.
Like the set up in the second drawer, u know when something is missing.
beautiful setup man. I'm also a small engine tech in eastern North Carolina. Mostly honda, suzuki, yamaha, kawasaki, can-am and polaris. I dont really work on standard stuff (just personal preference). For your air gauge, get the motion pro swivel air chuck. It is a must have, especially for crusiers. Those RBRT sockets are a life saver especially on honda's. Really nice and clean setup for sure. its nice to see a small engine toolbox and i can always appreciate clean tools. alot of stuff i use that i didnt see but it takes time to build up lol. cheers bud!
Awesome set up I have all the same tools really like how clean and organized you keep your box and tools. 👍👍👍
Great load out! As a fellow mechanic I am absolutely amazed how clean you keep your tools. They look brand new.
Because they've NEVER been used.
@@ronaldjohnson1474 you are right Ronald they are just for show!!
Love ur set up man!!
Very nice.
great video mate, it has given me a lot of inspiration which is probably a bad thing. lol
Nice setup and tools!
Can you tell me your secret I mean I clean my tools everyday before I go home and I can never get them that clean obviously you use your tools to but how do you get them to look brand new great set up 👍
Back when I was in college for auto tech back in 99 SnapOn had a program set up with the school where the students would get their tools for 60% off and financing on top of it. It was a great deal and I wish I would have gotten some. Who knows maybe the financing part was the hook that got that 60% back lol. I'm not sure if they still do such a thing now.
Brian: Yeah, they still do. I started Auto Tech School in August of 2017. Graduated June of 2019. Snap On, Mac, and Matco offered 70% off their tools and tool boxes. Getting a custom box that would’ve been $9000 for $3100 was legit.
They still do but it’s not as good. Matcos is the best student discount. Our Snap On education rep was a tool
It looks like I completely ruined you what are you got a high-quality tools you can never go back
That's the truth though 😅😅 I was introduced to quality high end snap on tools a year ago and they are worth every cent, hand tools wise, I'll stick with my Milwaukee power tools though but hand tools snap-on for this fella
Thats why you're the snap on junky!
Try out the 5" ignition pliers from Snap-on. I've gotten a lot of use from them, great for the carburetor screws that are being stubborn. Almost never have to drill out screws anymore, regardless how corroded it is.
Nice bro love your box and how organized you have it
Lets see a tour of your red toolbox also!
If I were you I would see if someone else in the shop has the green set of feeler gauges that way you can have green for go and red for no go.
I don’t understand the love for the Knipex cobra’s. I bought the small one because everyone and their mother says they are a must have and since I bought them 4 months ago, I haven’t touched them.
Are you in West Michigan? I heard Silver Lake mentioned.
Yes Grand Rapids area.
That’s Epic
I can't take this anymore because I'm bussed lol my box is getting there 😅
I need to go to bed lol
I sub'd to your channel btw hope to see more!
Great video and clean tools. The way they should be kept. Now I have a question. I was trying to see better the decal on the left. It looks like a Snap on custom built for decal. Did that come from Snap on? I just bought a new box and I'd love to get one of those. Mine was also a custom build. If you have a part number for the decal I am ordering mine asap. Thanks
I need an upgrade FR
Justin sturgill doesnt even know what a wrench is! ;p
Is that titanium trim?
Nah good stuff I have alot of work to do
It’s disturbing to know how much this tool box cost
Would love to know how that sawzall works on fuel lines or steel brake lines and what not, I hate breaking out the air saw if I can maybe just upgrade and get that m12 sawzall and cut thru things?
They work for everything, it's all about the blade not the saw...and if you can fit the tool where you're working
@@ABH313 yeah I figured I always used the torch blades by Milwaukee and they’ve always worked very well, thanks for the reassurance tho
Is that chrome or titanium trim?
Titanium
That snap on 3/8 gun is junk, no where near the strength of the Milwaukee fuel 3/8 stubby and it’s twice the price.
Ive used both. A buddy has the 3/8” drive Milwaukee stubby, ill choose my Snappy CT761 every time. Everyone has their preference.
I like Milwaukee to but the CT 761 is not junk for each is his own.
Rather have a normal snap on box and all snap on tools than the epiq and a load of shit brand tools
And non of them tools look like you use them at all
