Snap on everthing except wrenches, and sockets. Oh yeah Dewalt drills.

I see everyone has the same idea i have. I use Mastercraft sockets and wrenches, they all have lifetime warranty for less than half the price, but it's gotta be Snap-on for the ratchets, they can't be beat. My air tools are all Snap-on or Bluepoint as well. My wire cutter/strippers, testlight, and multimeter all came off the Snap-on truck as well. Oh ya, all my tools sleep in a Bluepoint box as well.

I used w/e the hell i can find. One time, i needed to cut a sub hole in a piece of MDF, and i didnt have a drill bit to make the whole for the blade on the jig saw. So i took a philips head and drilled away for an hour until i could get just enough for part of the blade to go in.

Then, i worked the jig saw at an angle and slowly dug into the wood until i was in good working conditions.

I'm a jimmy-riggin' master.

All my hand tools are Craftsmen or Mastercraft. I use Makita cordless drills as they are most comfortable in my hand. Porter Cable Routers. Bosch jigsaw.

Favourite tool?

Sears hot glue gun. Has never ending uses.

One thing someone mentioned that the Craftsmen sockets were good for over the SnapOn. Seems that they will stretch, so if you have a mess up bolt, you take a craftsman socket, pound the crap out of it to get it onto a mess up nut, get your impact gun and unbolt it, take it to Sears (with nut and all inside) and get a new one. Seems you can't do that with a Snap On (it won't crack or stretch enough to do it, probably considered abuse to boot).

I would buy Snap On if I had the dough, I have lots of Craftsman though.

A good buddy of mine is a Westward rep. so I have a very large collection of Westward gear. Torque wrenches to tamper-proof torx. Favorite tools would be the 1/4" die grinder/sander, and my fibreglass resin mixing bucket and brush. You really get the feeling that your creating something with these.
