It's not a trade off, you can have great performance and durability and still put thought and effort into ergonomics and appearance without adding cost. I didn't mean for my comment to come across as an insult but more of a recommendation. With a little more effort upfront the products don't...

You guys should hire an industrial designer rather than just putting you name on whatever housing the factory creates.

The 2125 is a 3/8" tool (2115) with a 1/2" anvil in it, that is why it didn't impress you.

Using your logic, all car brands are equal.

Does anyone else find a failure rate of 10% alarming?

IM Marlin, he helped me out before with warranty on my cordless.

Awesome build, can't wait to see it complete.

The challenge with reverse engineering is that you do not know the tolerances of the part in question or the mating parts, so unless you sample a very large number of parts and then statistically arrive at the part tolerances, you never really know if the knock-off parts will fit and work as...

How do you know that they are the same quality as the OEM? Wouldn't that require that you have all of the manufactuiring specs and drawings from the manufacturer that designed the parts originally?

Interesting first post, how long have you worked for Stanley?

Of course they are welcome to use my tools, it's family. Any family member that has something that I do not and that I need would do the same.

Thanks, I just checked and the ones he does have are quite pricey, a lot more than I paid for mine. It's too bad Bessey didn't continue to make them, as I like the way they lock better than my Bessey's

I use Besseys but my favorite by far are the two Gross Stabil's that I have. Unfortunately I believe they stopped making them.

Great study but how did you account for differences in temperature and atmospheric pressure? If one of your samples is running their compressor in Denver and another in Florida, its going to make a big difference. I have the Garage Mate and like it a lot, it's quiet and according to your...

Does anyone have the Snap on cordless grease gun? Any good?

He stated it was for a shop environment and it would get pounded frequently. I don't think the HF impacts have been really proven acceptable durability-wise beyond the backyard mechanic.

Of course, it looks the same so it must have the same materials, heat treats and machined tolerances.:)

How long have you used them and in what type of application?

We've had one of the purple Dyson's for about four years and it still works great, I had to fix the hose connection once but other than that it has been trouble free. It performs (suction wise) better than any vacuum I've ever used but the thing I appreciate the most is the thought that went...

A good shrink. :)
