[trial.rec.metalworking] quality of Craftsman tools?

ajf@maximo.enet.dec.com (Adam J Felson) (02/28/91)

I had a craftman 19mm socket that used for removing lug nuts.... ( w/ a 12"
breaker bar )
One time the socket cracket... so I drove 5 miles to sears and 5 miles back to
replace it...
It cracked and a piece flew from it.... same drive....
when the third  one cracked, I made that drive, went next door to a K-Mart,
bought an
entire set for $3 more than that single socket cost and have never had any
trouble with
any of them.

Using craftman tools and the lifetime guarantee may be ok it you live next door
to a Sears.
