Craftsman has never failed me. They aint cheap, but they are cheaper than Snap On.

I wipe them off with a rag after use... keeps them clean enough.

Yes, that's a very fair statement.

I also have a wide array of brands, however for hand tools its all Craftsman. More Sears stores around me than much else, and a great lifetime warranty.

My friend just got a job at a place called Northern Tool. I'm going to check it out after work tonight. See if I can get a good deal on anything I need.

DO NOT USE CARB cleaner... it will destroy plastic parts on socket wrenches.

A little diesel fuel works wonders. But thats just the redneck in me.

A good friend of mine just got a job at a place called Northern Tool. I checked them out last night, wow, I hope he gets an employee discount! They have some seriously nice welding equipment!
