mechanics through the use of crappy tools!<<<<<
In part I can agree. However, there are times when I need a tool I'll use
once maybe twice in a lifetime. Paying less than half the cost of an
American made product seems prudent. Then there is the fact that I live 10
miles from the HF warehouse. They have close-out sales a few times a year.
It sure is hard to pass up a refurbished (like new) 60 gallon compressor for
$80 (about $500 for their regular price). Then there is the small lathe
that was $450 new and my son spied it out in a pile and secured it for $100.
$5 angle grinders, $10 hammer drills, etc., etc., etc..
So, yea, some of their stuff is total crap and other decent for the money.
If I was using the stuff on a daily basis I would probably buy better. I
opted for a Lincoln MIG welder and a Milwaukee Sawzall over HF products.
