It's amazing all the sockets i found at the salvage yard one high school summer I worked in the late 1970's

It’s like panning for gold when you find snapon under the hood

[danven]

8s and 10s, those are my favorite sockets to lose. 🤣

[wGPersona]

Like that is gold because cars and truck either use 10s OR 8s

I found a 13mm deep 1/4 drive maco socket under a battery bracket. It was very rusty and pitted. I added it to my socket set and used it for probably 7 months. I did an ac line and expansion valve on a GMC Acadia a couple weeks ago and I'm pretty sure I lost it under that car. That socket lives on to the next mechanic that finds it.

As a pipefitter over forty years, I've found other trades tools everywhere hidden or lost in commercial buildings.

[prftaepps]

I know. They grow in the wild. I be finding them all the time.

[JetEnvy_TV]

[jajayaboy]

My favorite little 1/4 ratchet was found stuck in the sub frame of a car i was doing the lower control arms on. Free tools are best!

Who would doubt finding a 10 mil socket? It's a well known fact 10 mil sockets grow legs and walk away frequently.

[barrymarson]

It's always wonderful to find tools. I ❤ it

[shawnkieper]

Should not be taking people's tools off their cars! Some might mistake that as theft!🤔.

[AuroraGw]

So that's where I left it, can you mail it back to me, thanks

[britianlife]

Transmission fluid will make it brand new after a day or two of soaking. No grinding required

[threadtapwhisperer]

Das a snap on one and that nice 12pt spline style one too.

Score, bro!

[ashenmoonclash]

That's like a 20 dollar socket at snap ons prices😂

[nickhutchins]
