Hey Adam, Dave with Tekton here. We're near the airport in Grand Rapids, and we spent a bit of time talking to A&P guys out there. This kit was largely built on their feedback. With any specialty kit, you're going to let someone down. This is a prototype and a work in progress; we'll be...

Just the 6-in-1 style handles.

Hey Mikey, good news - they are sticking around for a while!

The picks and pry bars are made in-house at our Grand Rapids facility, the screwdrivers were made in collaboration with a local supplier. Whenever we can, we make tools in the USA. Sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. It depends on the tool line and the capabilities we have available to...

The picks and prybars are staying put. I have to check on the 6-in-1, but I believe they are being discontinued. Edit: This may change but it sounds like the 6-in-1 and 3-in-1 will be sticking around for a bit.

We are about to move our screwdriver program to a premium supplier in Germany that makes drivers for the tool truck market.

Dave with Tekton here. I have to say, this is the first I've heard of someone not finding our site helpful. It's typically highly praised. If you have a moment to let me know what you don't like, I'd love to pass that along to our developer team. We developed a paper catalog based on the...

Dave with Tekton here. As with anything Tekton, if you run into trouble, we will do our best to help you out. With sets like this, it’s often composed of previous Tekton tools, so something like a socket would be simple to replace. However, something like the case would be more of a limited...

It really depends on the sell-through, but the new finish will have those chamfers.

Hey Guys, Dave with Tekton. These are machined down from cold rolled bar steel.

If it was the same thing, we'd just send it. This has happened as we've improved our tools. The only time we try to use rewards is if there is truly no product that can do the same job equal to or better. In the above case, we just were getting out of tap and die sets.

Dave with Tekton here. It was me that you worked with back in September 2022. The tap and die set was purchased from Amazon. The set was discontinued on our site, but Amazon had old stock. You broke a single tap from the set, that we didn't have loose stock on. I did offer $10 in credit for...

Dave with Tekton here. The promo for Monday will cover whichever top you'd like to match up to your cabinet.

Hey, Dave with Tekton here. The newer versions are roll-stamped on the opposing side of the socket from the laser-etched mark. It's just a matter of preference. I think the laser-etching is a little easier to read, but when the socket gets "dry" it can get pretty faint. If you oil the sockets...

Last year we did an Outlet deal. I wouldn't say worse, just a different idea. We've never been big on discounts just to discount, and would rather keep our pricing as lean as we can all year long. Our 10% back in rewards applies all the time as well.

Dave with Tekton here, the Black Friday deal will be added savings to our Outlet program. We do not plan to have a blanket percentage off type sale.

Maybe some day, but for now we’re just not laid out well for local pickups.

Dave with Tekton here. Any chance that we have to increase our USA manufacturing, where it makes sense to, we do. This includes creating new processes like our laser mill process, and even putting in our electroless nickel plating line. We have invested greatly in the manufacturing capacity of...

All of our support is based out of Grand Rapids Michigan. This can include in the office and out of the office on the weekends.
