What is your go to tool set?

Good thing I don't have any air tools right now, cos they probably would be from HF!
My buddy has an HF air ratchet that we use regularly. It won't take lug nuts off without you hand-breaking them first, but otherwise it does fairly well.

 

If you make a living w/your tools, Snap On and MAC should definitely be on your shopping list. As much for feel as anything. And pawn shops, ebay, Clist and newspaper ads should be places you are shopping if you want to get some real value.

If you are just a weekender DIY guy like most of us, any handtool with a lifetime warranty, like Craftsman and others, are sufficient. But the same with them, shop used, or wait for sales, if you are looking for some large quantities.

I've bought broken Craftsman stuff at garage sales for a dime or quarter and exchanged them for new at the store.............

 

Yep that's the prob I ran into with a hefty HF 1/2 drive impact wrench

 

Same one my buddy's got, I bet!

 

New years sale at Lowes.

Last one in stock also

 

Are they a bunch of money...yes. Are they worth the money, yes, of course there's exceptions. Dad buys there pliers cause nothing else last.

 

I keep a Leatherman with me, usually in the glove box. Not a socket set, but it has come in handy quite often.

 

Same but I use gerber multi tools
