    gift a $140 Snap-On FHLF80 twin for less than $20?

    I hope you two are joking, even so that is in incredibly poor taste. You have no idea about the financial status of any member on here and rather than defending your position you have simply made yourselves look like a couple of elitist assholes. You may have money, but you clearly don't have...

    I am sick of the MILWAUKEE HYPE!

    personally i love my dewalt stuff and my milwaukee stuff. would buy either brand again and usually choose based on price/availability. i don't get why op seems to hurt by the fact that other people like different tools than what he uses.

    Snap-On doesn't want new customers.

    Honestly dude you should have just asked for the name and number of the local snap on dealer. From your initial email you were completely unclear as to what you wanted and then got pissed when they didn't answer your extremely vague question the way you wanted. You didn't ask for the number for...

    Mushrooming my impact sockets

    Maybe I'm wrong but as I understand it the metal used in impact sockets is softer to handle the added stress. This is what causes the mushroom effect. All of mine are like this as well.

    A New Craftsman Tool; That is Really Good! IMO

    maybe some of you engine builder types can explain this to me. why not just use a power tool with an extension on it? wouldnt it be faster than speeders/t handle tools? also easier on the hands.

    Need tool box advice

    I bought a box about six months ago and was also considering the classic through the student program. I ended up going with a Matco 4s for a number of reasons. The student price was better for one, got it for 2300 and got a free 3 drawer cart included. Was able to sell my old Matco cart for 400...
