    I like craftsmen and ace hardware polished tools just cuz of the lifetime warrenty I hate having to flag down a snap truck to replace my stuff and they hem and haw or for the stupid snap only blades my mini air saw takes I love the thing it rock but no one has the kind on blades it uses. I used to like s and k tools I couldn't break their sockets even when I tried just hard to find. All power tools made now are crap I work in the industrial tool market and nuthing holds up even milwaukee is getting cheap and they are in plastic junk tools I like skill bousch power tools most of the bousch stuff is great or hd skill I never have any of it come back and this stuff in many cases is used 24 7 and just the brushes wear out. For air tools I like cp and ir but for some reason this peice of crap campbell housefield $25 impact wont die and that price its expendable.
    like a volvo with gun racks.....

    OK, my tool box is growing yet, so there are a few different brands in there. a couple of snap on wrenches, some popular mechanics metrics, a lot of craftsman US standard, stanley screwdrivers, and a lot of my odd tools are from someone called michigan industrial tools. Lifetime guarentee, and they hold up alright.

    I like craftsman tools becouse it's no questions asked replacement and you just have to go down to your local Sears to replace them. I have some old metal cased Rockwells and they never die, also like my old Milwaulkie stuff.

    Snap-On all the way baby, I have just shy of $15 000 including the toll box. Oh! wait, converted to american its like $17.80 lol
    I have just had better luck myself with Snap-On, other than in the past couple(well more than that) years, they seem to be pricing themselves right out of the market. more and more companies are producing similar high quality tools for a quarter of the price.
    At home I have a bit of everything, mostly craftman and made in china, you know, the good shyte.
    I've got the itch to lay some rubber down!!! ~Thanks grampa! its been 10 years worth of work, I just wish you could see it~

    Oh wait! I made some major puchases last monday, now I'm way over. Snap-On owns me, why does he always have to have good deals for me when I get paid?
