 Sears don't *make* tools.  They periodically put a contract out for low
bidder.  Quality continues to decline.

 Their power tools are even worse - hardly any two drills or saws are
alike from year to year.  I recently threw away a box full of Craftsman
drills which had no interchangeable parts; replacement parts from Sears
cost about the same as new drills.
