On Fri, 11 Aug 2000 16:21:22 -0700 "Rick Brown" <free2000@quixnet.net> It's just the first one. Craftsman wrenches are made out of a softer type of metal and must be more bulky to not break. Have you

<< Yeah, they're easy to warranty, but Snap-Ons don't break at all and if one does (after 5 years of installing and removing wheels with it attatched to a 250 lb/ft impact) it's easy to warranty too.

And they're both made by whom? Or rather, which 3rd party? Sorta like "house brand" tires. A lot of them all roll off the same assembly line. They just get a different sidewall stamp in their molds.
