Harbor Freight Ahooga horn

Try and remove that seized screw with a worn out flat head screwdriver tip or that old nut that has its edges rusted away with a crappy socket. Quality tools goes hand in hand with a quality craftsman. Using good tools makes a huge difference on the end result

Amen brother.

As an apprentice I was taught how to identify quality tools, and, more importantly, how to maintain them. Nothing bugs me more than to watch the semi-skilled mechanics of today throw their wrenches into a drawer without cleaning them and checking them over.

How many times do we see precision measuring tools such as Vernier gauges and micrometers in a pile with dirty wrenches etc.? When I see these or similar in a shop, they lose my business.
