Where in the heck do you come up with this stuff??? I've been through a couple of the plants where some of the Snap-on stuff is made!!!! Trust me, Napa and Craftsman tools are not near the quality of Snap-on and Matco.... I've been using them everyday for many, many years....

This is from the Snap-on site..... I guess you better tell them to stop manufacturing....
