Time For New Tools!

[bettingpython]

I dunno just a random pic from tjhe web of what a good friend of mine picked up this weekend. $4300 for the SP89, H&K is so damned expensive since they were banned by executive order of president clinton. But it makes a great tool good for knocking those stubborn bolts loose when you don't have a hammer handy

uhh crapsman and husky tools are unreliable, I have no idead how many wrenches and ratchets I broke from craftsman and how many husky sockets I cracked just working on car on a daily basis. I gave in and started buying snap-on, matco and mac and never had a problem since.

Pandy I went to Lowes Last Night and was Looking at the Kobalt Sets that they sell.Everything that they sell is made by the Danner tool Group which makes Armstrong and KD.Great Tools and the Ratchets don't bust like Craftsman.I Always Had a Hard time Keeping 15mm Craftsman Sockets since they always Split Since I switched to KD I haven't had one bust since.

Jughead, so the lowes stuff is good cos I have tons of craftsman from 10 years ago, and I never had them bust ... but then again my mechanic has claimed that "I hit it with a flower" so maybe I am super delicate really ... anyway, if Kobalt from lowes is good, I'll buy their bored through ratchets and spinner wrenches.
I also haven't busted my stanley, popular mechanics (though these are my brothers) or some husky stuff I got.
Cool.

Yeap Srinath Lowes Tools are Great from the Looks of it.Same thing as Armstrong,Allen and KD. The only thing I have Against Craftsman is the Ratchets.Usually within a Month the Direction Switches will Switch on there own right in the Middle of Tighening something up.For me it's Usually in a Spot where I can't tell that it's Switched and I have Something Either Falling on me or I'm trying to Loosen it up Again. Several Years Ago I would Bust the Guts out of a 3/8 Ratchet without a Cheater bar.I Have stripped the 1/4's but have never busted a 1/2.

I'm still working on deciding. A fellow girlie rider bought me my first widget and thingie to wrench on my bike with! The widget is a ratchet w/ the proper size allen wrench on the end so that I can FINALLY put my spools on, and the thingie will remove the oil filter and screw it back on...... I'm on my way to the dark side!
