Majority of my stuff is craftsman however I do have alot of snapon as well. I like snapon wratchets and screwdrivers. For my heavy duty crap I have some S&K ( Impact sockets, very large wrenches etc) I also have some harbor frieght beater stuff like pry bars and punches, you know the ones where if they are not the right size you just put them on the grinder:wrenchbanana:

Gotta love Harbor Freight , I wouldn't buy some of their stuff though . I keep a mix of all the bigger brands.

I use mostly Snap-On, but I got a mix of Craftsman as well. Craftsman wrenches can't be beat for the money IMO but their ratchets suck. Snap-On makes some of the best ratchets I've used.

The majority of my tools are Craftsmen, Little Snap-On and MAC.

I stay away from HF since the majority of their tools are made in China and are far lower quality compared to US made tools.

MATCO for automotive tools, and craftsman for around the house.

I have almost all Snap On, Some Mac and some craftsman, SK, Matco, But when it comes to air tools I seem to like the Blue point stuff, Air files have to be Hutchins or Dyna Brayde. They cost a mint but last years with a drop of oil here and there. I love tools. Almost everyone I know calls me to ask about fixing anything, If I need one I buy one. So I have a very large and various selection. Yard working tools to automotive to woodworking to painting houses. I bought a 500 dollar airless sprayer to paint my house rather than pay a company 3000 for them to do it. And a few friends after seeing the result borrowed it. Also Honda makes good Log splitters and Pressure washers the latter a must for resto projects to remove gunk in a hurry.
