I have always had a love/obsession for good quality tools, and lately I have been buying more tools anytime I have a little extra money. Here are some of my latest purchases. Some I needed and some I just wanted but I'm a bigger fan of having a tool that I might need rather than needing it and not having it.
First up is a nice Snap On puller set.

Here is a set of old but VERY nice Snap On metric wrenches. I really did not need them because I already have several metric wrench sets, but the price was good.

Here is a set of Snap On terminal release tools. I really did need these.

A rare set of Snap On screwdrivers made for Chrysler as a master tech award. I have several other sets of Snap On award tools from the Buick know how series that I actually earned but I have never seen a set like these.

And the last pic is of a Legacy grease adapter set to get to all those hard to reach grease zerks on my little tractor

Here is another cool tool that I just had to have.
It is a Snap On MT1480 Lumy/MagII diesel and gas timing meter. It uses luminosity probes that replace a glow plug on a diesel engine to actually see when the combustion takes place to measure the timing. It also of course has the inductive clamp for the spark ignition gasoline engines. These meters are hard to find in this kind of condition, and with a bunch of extra luminosity probes I just had to have it

Having the right tools for the job is always a big plus!

I like tools!!!

Alright, new tools are cool, now show us the toolbox.
Maybe we need a toolbox thread....

I know I have already posted these pics, but what the heck I'm on a roll so here they are again.


It's hard to tell in the pictures but the Snap On box is pretty darn big. I have had the Craftsman box since about 1993 or 1994 when I bought it new.
The SO box is at the shop where I work now and the Craftsman is my home toolbox.

I've a craftsman box very similar to yours, added a five drawer cennter section last your, now I gotta stand on a stool to reach the top drawers!!!

I am DROOLING over that snapon box. I love snapon, understated elegance at its best.

kinda droll, but I have a set of snapon box wrenches that I inherited when my brothers wife's brother ate his shotgun. They are totally awesome. I used to have a snapon impact wrench acquired in the same incident, but sadly, my oldest son pawned it for drug money.
