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. Juan |
nail gun, don't give a rip about brand, as long as it shoots lol

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.
