Everyone likes to crap on Harbor Freight tools, but for casual work they last me at least 8-10 years in most cases. Considering they cost 1/3 or 1/2 the price of bigger brands, I’m fine with that. It’s not like any tool you can by these days, especially power tools, are heirloom quality like the tools our dads or grandpas used.
Harbor freight is also one of the only places you can get tools that isnt donating the money from your transactions to shitty political campaigns.
They don’t make campaign contributions as a company, and their higher executives have only donated to a couple democrats. Compared to the politics of most tool/hardware stores thats kinda incredible honestly
Ay I just got a new set of steel calipers to replace my shitty plastic ones… yes they’re still harbor freight I’m not that fancy.
