    Craftsman Military Exclusive

    I for one have not. In my Army days most of our tools were SK... Not that that helps you any. Seems like it may be worth it. Sure beats digging around at Sears with your fingers crossed.

    Ratcheting Wrenches

    I went with the GearWrench 20pc SAE/Metric set from Sears. Mostly out of convenience, if nothing else. Had a few points saved up too so I got out the door for under $60. Thanks all for the advice.

    Ratcheting Wrenches

    Wrenching pays the bills :badteeth: I actually have a set of Craftsman SAE/Met ratcheting combo wrenches. I took them to Iraq with me a few years back and returned pretty beat up. I also feel they are too bulky as compared to the base GearWrench model.

    Ratcheting Wrenches

    I come seeking advice. I'm looking to add a set of ratcheting combination wrenches to my box. As I see it, I have three options: 1) Get a set off the truck, 2) GearWrench (usually China, from Sears), 3) Pittsburgh (Taiwan, from HF). I know I'm going to hardly use these, but I do need a set...

    Craftsman Hand Tool Manufacturers & Date Ranges

    Came across a new Craftsman code today: S-AC Forgive me if I missed this code somewhere in the thread. It was found on a MADE IN CHINA(!!!) 9pc 1/2in drive SAE deep socket set. I can get pics of the stamp and packaging tomorrow if that would be helpful. Didn't think of it today due to seeing...

    Doktor Schnell feedback

    Awesome transaction! Packaging was bomb-proof and everything was as advertised if not better. Yet another seller that hooked it up in outstanding fashion over the course of a holiday. If only USPS was as on the ball as Jeremy! Thanks again, Dok

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    Truck/RV Dual Head Tire Gauge: FAIL I immediately thought this was a little sketchy the first time I went to use it. Just one of those things that when you picked it up you kind of chuckle to yourself "yeah, right"..the scale not staying in the body (what would be considered zero, I suppose)...

    Positive Feedback for Shimrod

    Also got a ratchet from the SO purge. As mentioned previously bombproof packaging and excellent communication made this transaction a breeze, even with two holidays in the way!

    craftsman full polish ratchet missing bearing

    I would think most people get it. I just picked up a ratchet from Sears about three hours ago. Right on the card it says that "if this Craftsman hand tool ever fails to provide complete satisfaction, it will be repaired or replaced free of charge." Doesn't mention anything about workmanship...
