About tools: when I was at the vocational school in '06-'07, I discovered that Snap-On, Matco, S-K, and other tool sellers have a vo-ed [vocational education] program that allows students to purchase tools at a discount while they're in school. [Mac Tools doesn't,and I don't know why.] Snap-On's program allows you 50-55% off retail, with a maximum purchase of $5,000 [unless it's changed since then]. But it's run thru the regional rep, and NOT thru Snap-On's tool truck program. School officials can get all the details for you. It was nice to have the Snap-On and Matco tool reps actually show up at school and make a presentation about their programs.
But even at 50-55% off, $5,000 in tools is barely enough to get you started. Still, it beats paying $10-$11,000 for the same stuff off the tool truck.
