When I started as an apprentice (late 90's not too long ago) I didn't have any tools, first few weeks I was mainly shadowing other mechanics etc. Any work I did do I used their tools.
I started in September, after about a month I started buying a few cheap tools each week , my Dad got me a decent set of spanners and then at Christmas I got tools off everybody. With my Christmas money I bought a second had Snap on top box. This started my Snap on addiction and I have been buying tools ever since even though I'm no longer a Mechanic
