Some, with OT and seniority, break 100-120K. Very few. Where did this guy get his info. when oil rig and seasonal employees are off for sometimes 4-5 months at a time. Unreal!! Also, Ingersoll Rand is the favourite tool and they are not cheap. snap On does not market heavy industrial tools. If they did, they would be better. it is not their market focus.

Those guys has a $100k to $500k salary at year. (Cars mechanics get between 35k to 60k). They are in constant capacitation courses . I been an industrial tech for 25 years around the world and never NEVER meet any tech who use Snap off. The Professional tech use Proto, Williams, Nepros etc . Those brands are half the price and four times better than snap-rip off. Only ignorants poorly educated weekend warriors and automotive mechanics pay overprice amateur shinny tools and make rich the truck guy. Low IQ guys buy snap rip-off tools. they born poor and die poor. The truck guy born poor and die rich.

I think snap on cost is so high because the interest is built into the price and they can't have a model where the sell at many different prices. I am not a snap on hater I do like thier tools but think some are just way over priced, that said some of thier tools are worth the higher cost you just have to be smart check around and make the best financial decisions for you, and if you want your tools to be all snap on and that's how you want to spend your money that's fine its your money to spend and there is nothing wrong with that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03395823278748904013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260522076663052517.post-36404789901958910132014-02-27T05:17:43.648-08:002014-02-27T05:17:43.648-08:00they are made by jh Williams which is a subsidiary...they are made by jh Williams which is a subsidiary if snap on who uses danaher to make the toolsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15107563802729772141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260522076663052517.post-66582367863149218102014-01-17T19:53:04.670-08:002014-01-17T19:53:04.670-08:00As a 20 year experience tech I can say this the ma...As a 20 year experience tech I can say this the majority of my hand tools are craftsman and trust I have put them threw the paces.

If you are a regular customer usually they are kind and would resolve issues like that quickly. I believe the Snap On warranty does cover the finish on their wrenches. If they are Blue Point the warranty is not as good however. If the rep does not cover the defects in the tools you can always contact the corporate hotline and customer support for an official answer on your wrench issueCalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01457589035179089175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260522076663052517.post-7290696897928162382012-07-01T15:15:45.833-07:002012-07-01T15:15:45.833-07:00I have an entire set of snap-on wrenches from 1/4 ...I have an entire set of snap-on wrenches from 1/4 to 3/4, 1/4 extension set, sockets and everything has rust all over their finish.

The drawers are a bit shallower than pretty much all the KRAs but it is a couple inches wider than the comparable KRL. It does not have the "super ball bearing" sliders for the drawers but so far I have kept my sliders clean and they have worked flawlessly. I have a complete tool set and none of the drawers have distorted and everything still feels like new. As a mechanic I have not seen the benefits of using a KRL box. As far as I know the only real big difference is the ball bearing sliders and the fact that KRAs are made in Canada and KRLs in the USA. One thing about Snap on boxes is the finish is EXTREMELY durable. You can throw the heaviest hammers and the metal will not dent. Throw screw drivers and pliers or whatever you got and the paint/powder coat does not scratch. First class finish. Plus is polishes by hand very well. Personally I can not justify the price because I have not seen anything that really could be improved on my KRA. The only reason mechanics upgrade their box is because they need a bigger one ! <br />By the way I know Kobalt tools are not made by Snap OnCalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01457589035179089175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260522076663052517.post-19630488778209628462010-09-18T15:18:21.076-07:002010-09-18T15:18:21.076-07:00Kobalt tools are not made by Snap On, only in the ...Kobalt tools are not made by Snap On, only in the early 2000's were they marketed as made by SO, but were not the same tools. Kobalt is made by Danaher like most tools, including craftsman (except screwdrivers), Matco, gearwrench and even fluke; but I wouldn't judge a tool just by which conglomerate owns them. <br /> <br />Although SO is my favorite tool maker, if you don't want to pay the inflated prices due to the truck service (for non-pro) mechanics) check out Behco (made by snap on), Beta tools, Stahlwille and Knipex who sell great tools but are significantly less than the truck brands (except for knipex is about the same).<br /><br />To Cal, do you have any recommendations on SO toolboxes, such as the KRA vs a KRL box and if they are worth the difference in price.<br />AndrewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260522076663052517.post-41982420295403458082010-09-13T08:01:43.862-07:002010-09-13T08:01:43.862-07:00Hey Tim,

Im not saying you must go out and buy all the tools you have used twice but it just so frustrating trying to do a job and not having the right tool. Of Course Snap On branded tools are made the USA while the Blue Point tools are typically offshore. The high end Mac again is made in the USA but there are some cheaper products that are offshore. As for more price friendly tools... Husky is very good for less items. The one problem I have had with husky is that you buy a tool and had a problem they were difficult with their warranties. NOW, there is no problem but they have CHEAPER items to replace the one you had a problem with. If a chrome socket broke they give you a new one but it is this cheap silver painted item. Clearly they are trying to save money with cheaper replacement tools which I was not impressed with. <br />A lot of tradesmen including mechanics really like craftsman. there seems to be almost an Anti Expensive tool following with them. I like craftsman I just don't own many of their tools. Its really what you like. Go to KMS Tools, Lordco, UAP NAPA, Canadian tire, Home Depot, liquidators, ANYWHERE and check out the tools. Feel them in your hand, ask about warranties and prices. Its really up to you what you like. In general you get what you pay for as well.Calhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01457589035179089175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260522076663052517.post-61848265867658372882010-09-01T11:06:18.091-07:002010-09-01T11:06:18.091-07:00So I'm not about to go out and buy a bunch of ...So I'm not about to go out and buy a bunch of tools, I borrow unless I find I need it repetatively. If I do repeatedly need something I'll buy the item (I'm not a mooch). When I do, I try to buy the very best quality I can afford. Origin of manufacturing (not just company HQ) along with warranty are very important. I really want to buy North American products whenever possible, even if it costs more. Do you have any recommendation for the pro-sumer level tools? Craftsman vs Motomaster, etc?Rixterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02936158476987507927noreply@blogger.com
