Yeah, kinda funny when the display ratchet is broken. I think the solution to plastic parts is to run quickly to Sears and buy some ratchet repair kits. They cost 1 cent apiece. Yep, 100 for a dollar

Good luck trying to communicate with Sears. I have twice had problems with their NTB subsidiary. Nowhere was there any way to escalate a problem past the store manager. Not even a mailing address. Th

Uncle Jack wrote about his company, John Deere. Uncle Jack, I'm curious about your racecar choice of Triumphs with those Ferguson tractor motors . . . I'd think a John Deere man would want to have an

Now I'm not saying I agree with this from a tool quality and use standpoint but look at it from an economic one. Most people (I'm including myself in this group) really don't use many of their tools

Uncle Jack, you are to be commended for your idealism in this day and age of cynicism and the resignation of many consumers to crappy products. I'm not being a smart-ass, either - I mean it. Unfortun

I HAVE to add my favorite Sears story: Several years ago, Sears sold a batch of screwdrivers with a very different type of plastic handle . . . After a few day of being sealed up in a toolbox, the pl
