If a tool does what I need it to do consistently, I don't care if it says Fisher Price on the side. My box at work has a plethora of different brands. We do have some die hard Snap On guys, but that is their money and their choice.

Can't officially use it yet as it needs to be calibrated, but an 87v is going to to quickly become a favorite upgrade from a 107. Calibration is due the end of this month on the 107, so I bit the bullet and purchased the 87v to swap it out with.

My favorite tiny hammer. Great for seating V band clamps on pneumatic ducts in tight spaces. Mini snap ring pliers 1/4 drive crows feet and torque adapters Shaved down apex bits for confined spaces Just some of my small stuff that stays in my road box and gets used frequently.
