100 percent craftsman. My dad who has been a mechanic for over 30 years also is 100 percent craftsman.

That's great, but there is one big problem now...

A lot of it's made in china now and it's JUNK!

20 years ago.. I was 15 and dropped 2,000 bucks at sears to load up my tool box for the very first time. It was all made in the USA. I still have it all today and works awesome. I've used some of the newer china craftsman and it is just crap! The teeth on their ratchets bind and chatter. Their wrenches do not fit nuts and bolts worth chit and if you do get a grip on one and give it some torque, the jaws flex the wrench.

It's sad to see them sell out like that.

lots and lots of snap-on just bought a sweet box about 2 months ago

I have them and mac

for impacts I use 3/8 and 1/2 mac guns 3/4 and 1in CAT

95% cornwell/5%craftsman. Snap-on here is a bit pricey. And i've been using the same cornwell dealer for almost 10 years.

I'm fifteen and about to drop money in to tools, (I only have about 200 dollars in sockets and a ratchet) I guess I shouldn't get craftsman stuff if I need it to last....

And yeah, I thought they still made good stuff being almost all my dad's tools are originals..

Selling out sucks:td:

I have mostly Craftsman, and while I don't use them EVERY day, I use them a lot, and haven't had much of a problem. In fact, I've broken more Snap-On sockets than Craftsman ones. Although, the one thing that I learned to stay far away from is Craftsman power tools. They just don't cut it.

Is Chicago Pneumatic any good?

JUNK :td:

Buy some S&K socket sets and splurge on a Snap-On Ratchet to throw in the box.

My tools are mostly snap on with a few cheap Napa brand stuff I needed in a hurry. Around here that is pretty much the only options you have unless you drive about an hour.
That and the stupid Snap-On guy stops at work once a month. The only time I don't spend money when that happens is if I'm gone.

And x4,5,6 or whatever on the Snap on Cordless impact being bad ass.

who makes good wrenches?
