- buying tools is usually fun and exciting . however down the line you may come across the tool you have not used yet. maybe you found that beautiful new tool was a complete dud well this is my list of tools that I regret purchasing.
Grab some mac tools bits. They’re the best bits I’ve used, even though the price is astonishing. You wouldn’t regret them.
I have heard that . I'm fine with dropping the coin as long as it's worth it .
I buy tools I don’t even know are for……..then I’m surprised when I use them I’m like what are the odds I had that!!! Or I tell someone I don’t have that and they are like it’s right behind you…..and they get mad thinking I’m lying lol
That's freaking awesome . I love tools that I have no clue what they are or how they work .
Go with Mac tools cobalt bits. Once you get over the price shock. The lifetime warranty makes it worth it. I have a complete set of good bits last 15 years only bought a few I lost.
Right on I will check those out . I'm down to spend the money on some solid bits .
Great video, we think alike I buy just in case. That’s what I tell my wife.
Better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it. My biggest problem is I want to play with a tool as soon as I get it .
I still have not used the shake and break.
I'm in the same boat man
Love the channel! Keep up the good work. Have fun! BK
Greatly appreciate the support and glad your enjoying
Think we all got tools in our box that not use or paid 2 much for that harbor freight quality off the truck
Yeah I would compare it to a gentle kick in the balls . Live and learn
Good video. I haven't made any in awhile. And our company failing fast
Maybe because i only ever used work on 302,289 and 351w but I've never needed a distributor wrench a wobble sockets always worked
💯💯
No regerts 😅😂 hahahaha i have a few, very, very, few, things that ive bought and dont need or use lol, weather it be for a job, or because i thought in my head, it would look better in my box rather the tool truck😂 haha but other then a few exceptions of them useless things, i still have no regrets haha
I will say some things I wish I would have gone a different route . I guess you live and learn . By the way, love the regerts .that would be a great tattoo
@classiclinesautomotive 🤣🤣 the old snickers commercial 🤣🤦♂️ god, now i feel old, haha, yea for sure joe! I have so many off brands, ive bought most my first tools off of Amazon years ago when i started wrenching on my own foriegn cars, and to be honest, ive resorted to Amazon many times this past few years in business just for specialty tools, and theyve never let me down, i have a 118 piece allen/torx/security set from casoman i got off Amazon a while ago, snapped a long ball end the other day, needless to say with a simle email and picture of the tool, along with my order number from way back then, i have a new one on order free of charge! Not the first time ive warrantied theough Amazon either! No problems and no REGERTS!🤣🤦♂️🤣
Good video - great to explain regrets on buying high priced and low priced tools, that did not perform the way you expected.
I greatly appreciate it .
I bought new tools that I never used or even opened. BUT no regrets here..the one with the most tools win 😅😅
Words of wisdom right there dying with the most tools. I feel like a kid getting a new toy every time I buy a tool I just want to play with it
@@classiclinesautomotive can this we a new topic tools to buy an thing that weren't worth the money
distributor wrenches............... when the bolt is the correct factory bolt size, and most of the time they are not,very few vehicles they are necessary
I had that recently on a 95 k1500 they had a 5/8s bolt and the truck was lifted was definitely a pain in the assembly to get to . Other than that I have been lucky with most things being correct .
I actually have the drill hogs drill bit set. It's not that great. They're not terrible, but there is better out there. I bought them a while ago. Maybe they jave gotten better.
I appreciate that imput . I have heard the Mac ones are awesome . I haven't been on a Mac truck in over a decade
My next purchase is Xtra Long Box End Wrenches. But I'm so worried about which brand to get.
That's a tough one right there . What brands are you looking into?
ICON THEY ARE ALL MADE BY THE SAME COMPANY MINUS SNAPON BUT IF YOU DONT WANT TO SPEND TOP DOLLAR HARBOR FREIGHT IS SAME DAY WALK IN WALK OUT WARRANTY. EVEN THE SNAP ON GUY WILL SAY YOU ABUSED IT AND USED IT TO BREAK A BOLT ON A RATCHET END AND HE WONT WANT TO REPLACE IT
@@latindoggy8059so many lies. Quit spreading false information
@@classiclinesautomotive I've looked at the HF Icon option, the Mac Tools and V Series Craftsman. The big gripe I have with some options. Is it's so expensive but they don't come with that many. But I'm open to options. I really am leaning towards the HF Icon box. Just for the ease of the warranty.
@@latindoggy8059 I've been on the fence about them. My only concern is how few come in the set for the price. But that seems to be the whole way across many options.
Well it happens..Most likely it will happen again 😂🔧🔨✌
Your not wrong on that . Screw it ,it's only money
Joe, my boy … I went to Lincoln Tech in 81 for auto and diesel, worked on cars since I was 15 and still do today if that’s not obvious , painted houses for a while and ended up an electrician with a woodworking hobby. That said, I’ve got some tools . Throw out one of those tools you regret buying and I guarantee next week you’ll need it . Signed 60 YO electrician ! Lol
Matco n MAC are both selling rebranded KnKut. Only difference is they worked out a warranty deal that's not offered with KnKut direct. But, unless you burn thru bits like crazy save your money and just order from KnKut direct after a bit or 2 are shot/broken.
Mac tool ones have life time warranty on all the bits in there
I found that sometimes we need what we need, when we need it. We don't always have time to do in depth research. Sometimes we win and sometimes we are bit in the ass. Lol. Sometimes I keep the stuff and sometimes I trade it off or sell it or who knows.......
If, and only If, you have a Mac tool guy, AND he's a cool dude, wait until their drill bit set goes on special and buy it. The initial cost is still going to be pricey but it'll be worth it. I've worked at many shops and one of the things they have in common is they have multiple drill bit sets that are missing a lot of drill bits. Just like the set you showed lol. Or they're dull. My sets are full. I don't mind letting my coworkers use my drill bits (in a pinch) because if they happen to damaged them, I can get a new sharp drill bit when the truck comes by (they're going to want the broken piece to verify it's theirs). My sets has paid for itself multiple times over. They also warranty their easy outs (like the Rigid extractor ones), and burr sets.
Can confirm, my mac guy doesnt give a rats ass what happened to the drill bit, he'll replace it no questions asked. And the mechanics length bits are perfect.
