Looks like SO is a company in business to make a profit, by selling useful, quality products, people want to buy.

The only subject that comes to my mind is the size of the photos.

Too Huge.

CROP and RESIZE! If they're cropped properly, they don't have to be shrunk AS MUCH.

1. WHY can't people resize photos?

2. Every "Holiday Season" Snap-On dilutes it's brand name by authorizing junk from China to be sold in Big-Box stores, Ace Hardware, and other non-Truck outlets. Someday, that's going to catch up to them, and the editorials will talk about how this was a short-term-profit, long-term-waste-of-it's-reputation.

Every other tool with the Stanley name has been junk for my entire life. There may be an exception I haven't encountered yet, but Stanley has been their lowest level of anything except doors for decades.

If you did the same comparison with Mac's overseas vs US made wrenches, we may have something to talk about. But this is comparing rotted apples to rotted oranges anyway.

I couldn't have said it better. Bolded for truth.

what is this crop you speak of?

is it something I can smoke?


I will check the lower 40.

Zen driver,
your zen hand is strong...

Evidently one was made in the USA before they went overseas, then they were made in Taiwan.

Of course u cant measure the difference in each open end...
(Which are different)
But
Do you notice any other differences?

And if so,
What does this say about USA manufacturing quality VS Taiwan quality?

They're ****ing wrenches, stick them on a bolt and see if they spin the bolt. What else are you supposed to do with a wrench?

Wow, that's a lot of words to say not very much.

But it's nice to see there are people out there like that.

I want to discuss your tool box stickers.
I'm on that mountain every day for work. Did you ride a bike up it?

I've rode about 10 different motorcycles 20 different times to the summit.

It's an annual trip first week of October.

which is kinda late in the season.... I know...

but we have only been skunked maybe 3 times... due to snow or ice on the auto road.

one year you couldn't see a foot in front of you.... due to fog...

you are literally in the clouds.

 

[SuitorsGarage]

That mountain is pretty well populated the first week of October! It is our busiest time of the year on the other side (Cog Railway).

I've always wanted to take the cog... someday..

Make sure you make time to check out the old shops while you are there. We don't promote the shops to the public but will usually take the time to show people around if they ask. Not many people realize that everything is designed and built on site.
If you ever go just ask any employee to get a hold of "Johnny" and I'll give you a tour.

Your wife wants to make you go work somewhere dark and unpleasant, probably in that crawlspace under the house with all the spiders and creepy-crawlies.
Makes me all itchy just thinking about all them bugs and such...
What did you do to get her so mad at you that she wants you in with them spiders.
There. I discussed.
