My Brothers and I divided up Daddy’s tools. A Sister got some of them too.

A lot of them were Snap-on. I have one of their ratchets and really don’t like it. I am sure it is durable but it is really coarse. I don’t know the exact angle but it is probably twice that of my old Craftsman’s.

I have a lot of Craftsman stuff from the 60s and then when I was working on Euro cars in the 70s I bought metric sets from Snap On. The Snap On sockets and wrenches have a lot of chipping on the chrome plating so they look pretty ratty, the Craftsman are dull and scratched but work fine and look better than the Snap On.

When I need stuff now I buy it from Harbor Freight at dirtbag prices.
