>>62251855

/diy/ sucks

>>62251855
Get a Rolgear

>>62252733
I chuckled

>>62252702
Yea, that's the engineer/tradesmen board. Too many NEETs here who never worked an honest day in their life are here.

I need a ratchet set for basic home furniture assembley. Any g approved ones?

>>62254249
Just get a basic set.

>>62252159
Is this a good product or just a linustechtips meme?

>>62251855
We have the same toolkit. Except that it's orange and it was made by Vastar.

>>62255665
I use it mostly for phone and computer repair, but the extender is a joke and its not very usable for larger screw heads.

>>62251855
Get a set from Wera those are nice even when they have been covered in oil dirt or simply used.
>>62254249
If it just the odd furniture build then just go cheap. But if you want something nice to use for anything then get a Bacho 1/4 set

>>62254249
I'm not huge into tools, but I think Craftsman Professional is still a good value, especially if you get it on sale.

Otherwise there's always harbor freight.

>>62252159
This is seriously the best option

>>62257021
Do you have a constructive opinion, or are you just here to shitpost?

>all this craftsman stuff
listen, if you can consider your tools disposable...

OP, if you aint paying, go all out
https://store.snapon.com/ELECTRONIC-SERVICE-C629365.aspx

its about 300$ for the primary 4 sets, more for individual extras you may need

>>62252714
>>62257008
SNAP-ON EVERYDAY

>>62251855
It's hard to go wrong with a Wiha kit. Just get whichever suits your needs.

>>62254249
>>62257021
Craftsman is still the best bet for decent tools for non-professionals. The new 75 tooth ratchets that come with some of their sets are pretty good.

>>62258067
This.

If you aren't a professional using hand tools all day every day, most of these nane brand tools are fine.

Defend this.

>>62258960
The funny thing is that those aren't even "real" Snap-On.

>>62258960
If I were trying to build a tool set from scratch, I'd at least consider that. Because I already have a solid collection, I'm personally much more likely to just buy individual tools as I need them going forward, but you know.

>>62258960
What's to defend? Other than your lack of father figure.

>>62259148
Yeah, a real snap-on set like that would cost probably...70,000-100,000$.
Something like that.

>>62251855
just get the most expensive kit you can find that has all the specialty bits tbqh

>>62258960
there's like a million pieces, and as said before I dont even think thats snap-on. The boxes alone are probably a few grand. Idk, from experience of having to have toolboxes out in the field, and having to get them craned onto buildings, or shipped by whatever and still be functional, if one falls apart it can be pretty catastrophic. Also, being quite often thousands of km from a city or any real civilization, you need the tools to not crack, break or bend.

With that being said you can get by in a pinch with like 1 ratchet, a crescent wrench, vice grips, a flat head screwdriver, a hammer and a good socket set. I really only pack a whole toolbox because my company lets us fill a semi trailer full of shit most of the time, and its better to have too much than not enough, but 99% of the time you dont need 99% of that stuff

>>62254249
just go to harbor freight and pick up a 1/4" set
itll set you back like $10

It doesnt really matter what you buy if you're just going to be assembling stuff every now and then.

>>62259442
A 1/4" set for furniture? Wouldn't a 3/8" set be more appropriate?

Try buy tools that will survive as long as your career does. Buying chink shit from ifixit isn't a great start

>>62258960
>Not buying through a SnapOn truck.
SnapOn owners have their own trucks to sell shit to mechanics. I have one that goes comes to my old job every Friday. Don't be afraid to ask a mechanic shop or if you happen to see the truck.
Plus paying in cash with those guys gets you so much farther.

>>62259318
Probably no joke. My dad says he found some snap on sockets his dad had and new they are worth $600, for 6 sockets. They're for air tools or something but Christ $100 a socket?

>>62251855
Been using these bad guys for a year now great set

I bought a similar set imported from the UK for a bit more. You can get this for around $235 USD with shipping included.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wera-05160785001-Zyklop-Ratchet-43-Piece/dp/B0056E11QW

Snapon has some patents and some of best truck distributors, but waay expensive

>>62255665
it's better for smaller devices like phones, tablets, consoles, and laptops. anything bigger generally uses bigger screws

having used a kit before, they're really fucking nice

>>62251855
These are shit. Get a real fucking screwdriver. if it doesn't have a narrow shaft you're not going to be able to use it for deep recessed screws. Most drivers with 'bits' don't meet this requirement. Personally I have an actual screwdriver for every kind of screw head that comes up with any regularity. For the oddballs, I bought a nice Erwin handle and a separate set of 40 or so of all the random security bits and all that shit.

>every kind of screw head that comes up with any regularity

To elaborate - I have real screwdrivers for all the sizes of flat head and phillips from #000 through #3. I like the Wera ones anon posted earlier, but you can actually get decent screwdrivers without spending that much. Look at Erwin, Husky, and Kobalt.

>>62251855
When it comes to these tools, what should I get? Is made in USA the best? Should I try to get made in Germany? Any good brands you would recommend?

>>62251855
The nee xiaomi x wema Set of course

>>62260626
Yep, mechanic here, been paying for my box for 3 years now.

>>62255665
go look for reviews from other sites. don't be so helpless.
