Which do perfer to buy tools from?

[davbell22602]

I prefer Northern tool because of better quality.

I know a lot on here don't like Craftsman but that's what I usually buy.

I still buy Craftsman...even though I haven't bought any new ones for a llloooooonnnnnggggg time.............

I'll from anywhere almost but I just bought the Welmar harmonic balancer installer and removal master set cause the cheap 16 dollar one at autozone is too cheap. The bolts strip easy.

I'll buy craftsman, snapon, kobalt, husky, mactco, mac, etc. anywhere that has full lifetime warranty on there tools.

Craftsman, Matco and Kobalt are made by the same company (Danaher).

MAC - Mostly Asian Crap

Husky - owned by Stanley which also owns Mac. See above.

Snap On - Just opened 4 new factories in China. You can guess where they are headed.

Got any proof of that? I heard that snap on owned kobalt but just used a different name.

Up until 2002, Kobalt was made by the J. H. Williams Co. which is owned by Snap On.

Cool thanks

All my sockets and ratchets are Husky, screw drivers and my breaker bar are Snap-on. My ratchet wrenches are husky, normal box end wrenches are from harbor freight (so far work great) and any other crap I may need I just get from Harbor freight.

I think I'll just switch over to Fisher Price...........

I was just going to start using a combination of my hands, rubber bands and some well crafted pieces of metal and wood...
