I like craftsman simply because of their return policy. I have a feeling i am the sole reason they changed their policy in the first place. Nothing like cruising the swap meets looking for broken wrenches just to turn in on mondy for a new set.

When I was mechanic, like most, I started with craftmans sockets. I had three 3/8's X 15mm deepwell so I could keep my sears trips down to once a month. About 1 year into it I got fed up with breaking knucks. I bought a rail of 3/8's deepwells from snap-on for $118. Five years later I hurt my back and had to stop turning wrenchs. I still had all the original sockets and I abused the Snapon ones way more the I ever did the Craftsman. Now that I am a manufacturing engineer I know why that is

Sorry I was not to clear on that. I know how they can make 3 sockets that look almost the same but one is weak the other is OK and the third is amazing. But we need to stop posting here. Hopfully we will get a tools forum.

Hey, I just got a set of car dollies for twirling my Vette around in the garage.
If only we had a garage tool space to show them in!
