Tony Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 When i was ill it seemed so grim i thought if i didn't die i could never work again so for this reason i gave/ sold all my tools. Fortunately i lived and i'm working part time but i don't have any tools and i don't like borrowing other peoples tools because rightly so they are not keen on it. So given all the above i've started all over again... I also got a laser aimed heat measuring gun which i use to detect hot/ cold areas on the tyres. I'm still missing some special tools but i think what i've currently bought will get me past the basics......Just. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 You not a snapon man then Tony? I've never understood why mechanics always buy their own tools too. Surely the garage you work for should do that. I don't take my own computer when I go to work, I use theirs and the software they supply.

Tony Posted May 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Strapon are way to expensive for what they are, i'm no fool willing to pay extra for a willy moment.... In the motor trade you always have to supply your own tools.. I know that where i used to work they did try to supply but they got stolen or abused. Also some company's give a tool allowance.. I also remember a member of staff found out their tools were not insured in the depot so if there was a brake in they could loose the lot.. Needless to say all the staff removed their tools and since no work could be done the company did insure them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
