NW WA Meet / BS Thread

No, strap on cause that's what the dealer uses on you when you buy a snap on box.

Keep and eye out for a used ones... I bought my classic 72 for 1200.. almost brand new.... unless you need it now for work save the money.... my 3 boxes are all snap on as well and I stand by the quality but don't get raped on the new cost

This!

 

Buy once,cry once. All the high end tool makers save me time/money and are extremely convenient.

 

Well I don't really have room for a mod day at my place. working on one truck isn't a problem. two maybe...but one would be outside lol. Hopefully this summer I'll have the whole garage back.

Snap on is only nice cause of their warranty and the trucks coming to you. they do make nice stuff don't get me wrong....but so are the cheaper twainese companies like sunex and gearwrench for a lot less. talking stuff in the last 5 years or so that is.

And like definitely don't buy new. Craigslist and eBay to get it cheap and if it breaks warranty it still

On another note the only snap on stuff I've seen the Navy use is their torque wrenches. Williams and Proto are by far the most common for hand tools.

 

we can def make it happen if you need help, just gonna have to figure timing.

 

Cams shop for build day!

 

Yeah figured I would put out feelers when I get all the parts in. I know it gets busy during holidays and I work during the weekends but Ill make it work on my end. I'm ok with doing the work just need someone more knowledgeable than myself there. Beer and food will be plentiful as well.

 

Well if it's between Christmas and new years I'll have that week off. so long as it's now a powder day in the mountains

 

Food & beer can't go wrong

 

Ill keep it in mind. Ski or board?

 

New guy here so be gentle from the east side Yakima just reading & watching the huskies kick butt

 

Welcome

 

There is somebody else on here from Ellensburg or Yakima as well. I am still east-er than you in Spokanistan.

 

Went up Bethel to try and get in some snow, but only about 1-2" up there. (6000ft) Then went up bald mt, and came out the wenas. Made for a good day trip. Was surprised to be the only truck up there all day. The fog lifted for a bit and got some good views.

 

Ski. we have a northwest ski and board meet-up thread here. I'd link it but I'm on my phone.

so I was hunting yesterday and heard a buzzing sound overhead and looked up and saw a drone with camera flying by. Not looking at me but heading deeper into public land. Wonder if someone was playing around or trying to spot game from the air, which is illegal. That was a first for me while hunting anyways. It's quite rural here.

 

Should of shot it.. that's legal haha

 

Welcome!
Richland here.

 

Not really. Legal, that is (should be).
