I bought a decent Sears Craftsman aluminum "racing" jack 10 years ago and it
still works great.
Life's too short to but cheap tools.
I did buy out a local hardware store's supply of hand tools recently. They
are changing from their house brand, Do It Best, to Channellock, which is
located 15 miles down the road in Meadville.
I have a whole set for sale, 1/2, 3/8, and 1/4 drives. Deep and shallow
sockets, ratchets. Wrenches. Standard and metric. Nice stuff and it's for
sale. If interested give me a shout. Very reasonable.
I went to an auction Sat and bought a whole set of Wizard sockets and
ratchets in the original box. Sold by Western Auto in the old days. USA
built and decent. I love the old stuff! I also have an old set of Sherman
Klove tools too.
