I work at a Harley Dealer and all the tools we have are snap on ,craftmen ,mac ,matco and a whole bunch more brand names. We get like 3 different people that drop by in trucks.The techs mainly get snap on since they have some deal with harley to make the specialty tools but we have craftmen in the shop box.

im going with snap on, students at uti get a hell of a deal, but it still costs a grip.

Re:time to buy tools
 

waste of money.. im tellin ya.. i used to buy these things FROM SNAP ON.. to damn $$ compared to anything else. Get some sears tools. tools are tools really, ,most have lifetime warrenty.. used the money for some home made turbo stuff!!

Re:time to buy tools
 

snap on has nice tools, just kinda spendy... Stay away from their gay cheap boxes though.

Re:time to buy tools
 

The only thing Snap On makes that I think is worth the money compared to other brands are there ratchets. I have tried every brand of ratchet on the market and have the scars on my knuckles to prove it. Spend the money, get a good ratchet, get everything else from Sears. I get all my impact sockets from a place called Northern, Ingersall Rand brand, and they are indestructable and cheap.

Check out www.northerntools.com Good deals.

Re:time to buy tools
 

we get LOTS of tools from northern, they used to be northern hydraulics, but they sold tools then too. we mainly get woodworking stuff, saws, handtools, etc, for the business(we make custom doors and stuff) they have good prices.
