Ah yes, the goat finallee. Just what I needed to make my day.
Let us think about it for a minute. Why would a tech buy HF tools? They needed something now. Why waste a drill bit when you can buy a set from HF and not care if they bust. Needed a socket size because yours stripped or after many years split? go to HF and buy a set until a truck comes by. HF basic tools are cheap and many times cheaply made however they still come with lifetime warranties. If you do not like the tools, give them away. Pretty simple. Like Ray there, many techs have tools from different companies. Besides, tools walk off sometimes. Why replace one pieces when you can buy a whole set. HF tools work great for me as someone that does not work with tools that much. Tools really need to fit two criteria, does it work and does it fit your style of work (IE is it comfortable). Just my opinions.
Safety goat. Nice.
The tools do not make a good mechanic. Knowledge does. At the end of the day tools have to be bought by the mechanic and anymore even snap on does not have the same quality as years ago. I am a diesel mechanic and have almost all HF and Husky tools. Only a few items from snap on and those and special tools that not many company’s make.
That will teach em hahaha
Clearly Rainman Ray doesn't run with the big boys.
Real mechanics use Hyper Though tools from Walmart! They're not just tough. They're HYPER TOUGH!
Good one Ray. LOL
James c seems very familiar with harborfteight tools to be able to spot that on a video. Lol I bet James has a few in his aresnal considring he seems so knowledgeable. 🤣
How much space do you get at that shop guy?!?!
Fairness I don't mechanic for a living but my harbor freight stuff works just fine. I even have beaten on lots of my cheap sockets with a 1/2 airhammerr and they've done better than you might expect.
All is gearheads got tools from everywhere. The point is do you know how to use them you do. In fact I got duplicate tools cuz I can't find them half the time. I swear when I work at a car I spent more time looking for the wrenches that I do working on it. Really enjoy your videos
Well good news is if you ever decide for a career change, you could slap a “snap on” decal on the dually and go from shop to shop having people apply for second mortgages to buy your tools 🥲
A driver at work asked me one time if he could barrow a claw hammer while I was in the part locating rabbit hole at my roll away.
I thought to myself, do I really look like a carpenter.
I said no,go ask the boss,I overheard the boss say,do I look like a carpenter 😁
Well you made me feel better about my collection of bulky plastic boxes, and also are making me feel like it's definitely going to get much worse, I have nowhere to store these damn things, they take up an atrocious amount of space, not to mention the occasional embarrassing Jenga moments.
Lots of Strap Ons
Ray You need to come out with your own tool brand. Click-On tools for maximum Clickage!!!
As long as a tool does the job, who gives a crapper what label is on it? I didn't realise tool snobs exist, but they do.
if your arms are growing from your arse, brand name tools wont help you. Just saying
Hey as far as tools go since I cant afford Snap On what would be a better than Harbor Cheap tools? I have some AutoZone stuff, do you think they are ok?
What my mechanic friends say.
Sure, craftsman and husky have a lifetime guarantee but snap on doesn't break. I am not making money when I am returning a broken tool instead of working on the thing I used to break the tool
Sarbor freight
* Dammit Ray, after this video you better lock your shit up and have sharks with fricken laser beams guarding it.
gotta love a real mechanic. someone who can go through his tools for 10 min that are worth more than your car.. not to mention the boxes
Icon sockets and wrenches are Snap-on made at same foundry. just fyi just like Kobalt sockets and Wrenches are made at same foundry as Matco
I was waiting for the prying tool that a while back you used and then said was one of the best things Harbor Freight sells. I think it had a head that could be locked into different angles. A few of my tools are Harbor freight as well, but most are not.
Thanks for all the videos Ray, and greetings from the "Great White North" (Wisconsin in my case). On that note, in one of your "Out of the Shop" videos you had to fix a broken wire on a heater. I think I remember you saying in the video that you and your family were on vacation in Wisconsin, and I hope the rest of the trip was fun.
I've been a mechanic for close to 40 years. My Grandpa was a mechanic also and I have several of his 1940's Snap-on tools, NOBODY gets to borrow them!!!
File under "Offended Professional Mechanic" reads too many clueless comments..
James C. Go to bed your drunk…
Calm down hey bro Ray just calmate miho…. We know who you are, u ain’t got nutan to prove to one ey essay! U know am saying bruh!
Ray, so many tools. Maybe you could invest in some late night infomercial shopping and buy one tool that does everything lol. Cheers for the Tool box tour.
There's gotta be like… $100 worth of Harbor Freight tools there. Nice collection!
Milwaukee and snapon are personalities not tools
"We're not gonna worry about that drawer" …why do I suspect that the drawer with the tools you care the least about is probably going to be the one that actually does have a decent proportion of HF stuff in it 😀
Why do you let yourself get triggered by such a troll….who cares what brand it is….if it works.
Question…are those all your tools? i tought the tools are provided by the garage.
Just a few Harbor Freight tools that's not bad. I bought some and regreted it some broke sooner than they should have so I got a better brand tool.
Yeah idk people. Talking down on someone who uses off brand literally have nothing going on in life 😂 😂
Me thinks James C is feeling a little silly right about now! lol……..ugh, tool envy! 🙂
I worry about Harbor Freight Power Tools than anything else. Their hand tools are a bargain and are rather decent for the money.
Icon tools are actually really good. Haters gonna hate. But it’s the truth…
Tools are tools. It gets the job done it's a good tool.
I love it when arm chair experts get pointed out.
Can't do it all the time or you'd never have any other content, but now and then it's nice to watch a good evisceration.
You have inspired me to go through my tool collection and get rid of things I have too many of. Among many other multiples, I found sixteen #2 Phillips screwdrivers, four of which were stripped to uselessness, and six others that had less than desirable handles. So I'm left with SIX of them I just can't live without. The neighbors have been invited to sift through the box and take whatever they want. Time to clean it up and get organized!
Had a 2005 Ford 6.0 Diesel decide oil needed to be in the coolant for that extra cooling, I had already replaced the Oil cooler and EGR cooler several months back so this time I decided to pull the heads and stud it. Went to HF and bought every tool I needed to rebuild the upper half of the 6.0 in my driveway. Not a single problem with any of the tools, they worked very well and cost a fraction of the big brands. Not being a mechanic as a trade but more of hobby so HF tools are just fine. Stay away from anything that uses Electrons, those items tend to fizzle out.
P.S My F350 is running strong, nice and Shinny.
hay ray I think you made your point
All of those tools and no metric adjustable wrenches?
If it makes my job easier I don't care about what the brand Ray and don't let the haters get to you
Finally found out what the magnetic lights you use are, need to go order a couple.
So much H/F junk lmao. Come on Ray, lift your game!
HF tools are "good" for the home gamer (like myself) that has a handful of vehicles and some lawn equipment to maintain. For someone that makes a living working on vehicles, I think Ray has a good, quality assortment of tools.
