The Performer Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 They're stuff is good depending on WHAT you walk into the store expecting to get. If you're looking for a drill you plan on using more than once then you will leave the store with a piece of junk, however if you go into the store to get chip brushes for fiberglassing then you'll be the happiest person ever. Stay away from the tools you NEED to depend on, (drills, saws, grinders...) I do recommend the expendables, things that it's just impossible to break. Example, how the hell can you make a P.O.S. chip brush? The things I've found are great things from harbor freight is things like, brushes, step bits (very impressed), small soldering irons, clamps, bungee cords, air hose fittings, nut driver set... you know, the little things that it's just impossible to screw up in the manufacturing process... CERTIFIED BITCHES!!! Not being new at something doesn't mean anything. Just because a prostitute isn't new at what she does, doesn't change the fact that she still 'sucks' Click to see my build!

Forevrbumpn Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 I buy stuff from them when I dont mind "disposable " in mind Honestly, I try and buy tools from Craigslist, you can buy some great tools for crazy cheap I have a Craftsman digital Radial Arm Saw, that also acts as a 24" table saw, and for $100, its my best, most reliable tool, next to my router. I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyne151 Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 If you only need to use the tools once... or every once and awhile then harbor freight is good. If you need to use the tools everyday then I'd go elsewhere. -Installer for Duke's Car Stereo 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix - Ported Eaton M90 S/C, 3.5" pulley, XS Power Headers, 1.9 Rockers, FWI, Poly Motor Mounts, Custom Tune.

Airborne Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 If you only need to use the tools once... or every once and awhile then harbor freight is good. If you need to use the tools everyday then I'd go elsewhere. same here, I picked up a motorcycle lift thay was on sale and the first time I used it it was great, the second time it earned a spot at the curb. Save a little and get a quallity tool you can rely on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01xtreme Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 for certain things that are going to be used up (cut off wheels) there is absolutely no problem going to harbor freight. Even for most tool it is fine, so long as you dont think you are getting snap-on or S&K quality tools. they will work, and I have had decent experience with the quality of their tools, but then again I wouldn't buy anything I plan on putting my faith into, like a jack, or lift or anything of that nature.

dwright27 Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 ill say this, if you are doing some type of marine construction, or something that a tool can be lost very easily, theni would by all mean by from harbor freight. because there is really no reason to buy a $12 wrench from home depot, if you're gonna end up dropping it over board 3 days after you bought it not able to retrieve it. so, thats why i bought some stuff from there 2006 F-150 4 DC XL M2 18's Walled Daily Driver XS Power 4 DC 3.5kw Team DC Team S.P.L.
