KiNK43 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Treat yourself. My impact gun was 65 quid. It's a Clarke one from machine mart. It's awesome 550nm I think. That crank bolt will come out like it was only in hand tight!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I've always worked on the assumption that as im not a full time mechanic, i dont need the best tools .. Ie snap on. As great as they are, i could never justify their prices. Where as i agree with Jake, for most of us that tinker, the other end of the spectrum does just fine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marv Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Neighbour text me saying he's bringing a snap on impact gun back today so will give it a bash when I get home! An impact gun is something I should invest in as they do safe time and hassle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
