Re: Tool Sources

[Ruth Gordon <kpmvn4wrd@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's my 2 cents on tool shopping! How fun!!! I sold tools for 20 years plus I am very frugal and do shop hard to get best price and quality.
Go online and read reviews.  Snap On and Mac Tools are made by Danaher Tool according to the web. They also make tools for NAPA, Sears which aren't the quality level of Snap On's etc. You may want to go to Snap On and try some for features, weight and balance and then write stock numbers down and go online and see if you can beat their prices - I know- that's "dirty pool"! I have had Porter Cable & Ingersoll Rand air tools and they are still going after 30 years. Also replacement parts are still available. Happy shopping, Ruth

Craftsman for us poor folk and Home Depot and Lowes carry a good brand of tools.
Also, yard sales are a great way to glom onto some great deals.
I had a good friend who bought an 80 gallon air compressor for $150.00.
Worked great......Oh by the way the wife had just caught her hubby messing around......
