So I'm going to school for auto tech, and hope to be in a garage this summer. I'm in a position where i can buy some tools now, so what are some of the forum's favorites? i have socket sets and combo wreches, but not much more than that. here's what i've kinda been tossing around:
air compressor with impact gun, air ratchet, grinders and cut off wheel
ratcheting wrenches, i love them so much
i need an engine stand for my build, so i'll throw that in
dial calipers and a micrometer
my own pair of wire strippers
circuit test light
a new soldering iron
maybe a really powerful dremel? that's not for cars as much, but i've needed them before
SES/CEL scanner
and i really really really want a copy of HP Tuners software
any input?
