right now i use mostly craftsman tools at work, but when i borrow a snap on tool from one of my buddies, u clearly feel the difference,

i love my craftsman and i believe they are the best bang for the buck, but if you are going to be doing mechanic work everyday, u might want to invest into some snap ons,

please, nobody just working in their garage needs snap on ****. christ i know professionals who only use snap on for the speciality tools only snap on makes. snap on is overpriced and overrated.

craftsman works great.

Good call considering I own an Si with Z3 fenders, and a bodykit.
I was actually joking around posting the link, but you might aswell go there. You aren't contributing a damn thing here. Maybe i should throw out my snap on tools and get craftsman. Get a life man.

well you do own a teg with a body kit and "custom fenders" wich is close enough for club si. i contribute more to this site than you know my friend. and go ahead and do what you want with your strap on tools, ill have the peace of mind knowing i didnt spend 10,000$ for a basic set of tools and a box. i dont know you nor have i ever talked to you, so dont joke around with me.

I use and recomend Blackhawk...basically the same as MAC. I happen to have a Blackhawk dealer right down the street (finding someone that sells them is sometimes a pain in the ***), but I love them...personally wouldn't use anything else as far as price-to-quality ratio goes.

I have used both and find that Snap-On was a bit better quality. If I had the money, I would definitely sport Snap-On tools all the way...even for home use.

Snap-On-expensive, but top shelf quality. May be hard to find a truck when you need one though

Craftsman-great for the garage mechanic, less than Snap-On tools, still great quality, ease of return. <U>MAY</U> break a little more often.

I personally use Craftsman tools. I break things often, but a short temper never helped me with anything anyways. The benefits of having Craftsman over Snap-On are obvious. But if your a baller and have easy access to a Snap-On truck...GO FOR IT!!!

sk and craftsman tools are perfect for the DIY guy. The price are great and both have excellent warranty programs. I would leave the snap-on tools, mac-tools, and mat-co for the pro.'s that works on cars 5 days a week for 8 hours. These are the guys that needs the extra edge on the tools.

I have the craftsman 400 piece set I paid 299,99 CAD it's a pretty good set nothing has broken yet but just a lil extra wear on the sockets who cares lifetime warranty and it's a hell of lot easier to go to sears and return a socket/tool than it is with snap-on (snap-on is easy if you work in a garage and they come every couple of weeks or so).

The advantage to snap on is the make a tool for everything you can think of which is usual in those situations. For the price I seriously wouldn't buy theyre **** but they have some stuff that's useful and hard to find with other companies p.s. stay away from bluepoint imo = craftsman, mastercraft maximum. Bluepoint is not worth the price.
