Really nice collection. Hope you can find the missing pieces your looking for, drives me crazy when I'm skipping tools. Thanks for upload.

get a lot of replacement sockets at flea markets or pawn shops. Most of the time I pay 50 cents per socket unless its like 1/2 drive and over a inch size for usually a $1. Tools don't usually sell well at these venues, so you can haggle sometimes for a cheaper price especially if you buy a bunch. I got 53 craftsman sockets for about 20 dollars at a pawn shop. Extras I put in a tool box I'm building for my 11 year old son.

Nice tools! I recommend eBay... Believe it or not, there are some great deals for good used tools without any owner markings. Even if you buy them broken, you can get them warrantied with minty new ones. I've literally saved thousands on used and broken Snap On, Matco, and Mac off of eBay, Craigslist, swap meets, etc... Patience is key to finding what you're looking for without spending an arm or leg. Been turning wrenches for almost 20 years. And at flat rate wages and an economy thats almost

You can almost guarantee that any video where someone has Snap-On anywhere, you will get a reply about how you should have gone to Harbro Freight.

You have some nice tools. Its funny how my friends who pay $8000 for a tool box have to call me when they dont have the tools to change their own brakes. Snap on is the best hand tools, but Channellock,Knipex are better pliers. One thing I notice of Snap on die hards is that they never have all the tools they need and end up borrowing mine. My personal opinion is that bluepoint stuff is highly overpriced made in taiwan, that could be bought at harborfreight.

I use my narrow drawers for my sockets so I have more room in the big drawers. Love the KR1000. Good vid. BTW I have the combo 3/4 line wrench but they are hard to find.
