New York?

 

That Subaru Forester has a NY license plate so... WTF

 

Outside of downstate, New York is a very awesome state. Would live there again if New York City sank into the ocean...

 

Absolutely agree, upstate is a great place.

 

Oh lol. That upper parking area is for the tennants. Their 3 cars are NY, CO, and NC ha. Three new fresh meats in jackson as of a month ago

 

Accidentally left one of my Milwaukee Rover LEDs in a freezer for 6-7 weeks at 0 degrees. Found it today, let the battery warm up and put it on the charger and it still works perfectly.

 

Well, HF called early and my box was in. Went and picked it up, unloaded in about an hour using the kubota and lift. Debating whether or not to sell off my old 44” or keep it lol.

 

Debating on getting one of those myself in addition to my roll cart. So far, I am loving the roll cart (first HFT toolbox).

 

Beautiful cab. I'd get one but don't have the room any more. I sold my Matco Macsimizer and downsized to the HF 44. Love it

Nice color choice, too.

 

thanks. It matches my color theme back here

 

Nailed it!

Love these service carts.

Funny how if you decide to keep your older box it gets filled up again Speaking from Experience.

I am doing so well not buying more tools or more welders.

 

In my work I run into a lot of socket head (Allen)bolts, most of the time they’re packed full of dust and debris, rarely can I get on them square and get a good bite, even after blowing out the debris. And usually they’re just tight enough that a good bite is needed or they round out....

I can hardly wait to use these the first time....

they bite in when removing the bolt. As opposed to rounding out. They’re supposed to bite even rounded fasteners.
MAC TOOLS RBRT sockets, Allen, ball end and straight and Torx are available. If they work I’ll get the Torx as well.

 

Give a good update on those when you get a chance to use them. They might be handy to have if they work.

 

Ton of YouTube videos on the RBRT stuff. They have a substantial line up of options.

 

I had seen a spot on these several weeks ago, they caught my eye but I had not seen a MAC truck until last Friday when I stopped and check them out in person.
I’m a road technician so I don’t see the tool truck that comes to the shop much, not that I’d buy regularly anyway. SnapOn doesn’t excite me much, and the dealer is kinda smarmy so I don’t do much dealing with him.
I’m hoping these will do what I expect, if so I will invest in a few different sets.
