disposable power tools
You have to consider the guarantee too. If I can get a Ryobi or similar
with a 2 year guarantee, from a supplier I expect to honour it, I figure it's a low risk "investment". Having said that, I love my Fein multi-tool ..... Hobby use can be harder on power tools than trade use - tell me you haven't pushed a tool to the limit to get the job done, rather than go out and buy something more suitable. ( Glen excluded, I blame him for the Fein ... ) Re guarantees I'm giving my offspring some cheap watches purchased recently in China. The come with a guarantee in three parts. 1) They are guaranteed to be fake 2) They are guaranteed to have worked when demonstrated 3) The guarantee lasts 60 seconds after payment. David |

If a tool craps out and it's Sunday and you're at the boatyard, a warrantee
is not much comfort. "David Flew" wrote in message ... You have to consider the guarantee too.

disposable power tools
I had a bunch of 1/4 inch holes to drill and tap in some mild steel. I had
two battery drills one top of the line Dewalt and one cheapo model. They both seemed to have the same amount of power but with the cheaper model I went through bits like crazy. I finally discovered that due to the cheap bearings in the cheap drill there was vibration in the chuck which ultimately ate the bits. In this instance the cost of the bits far out weighed the savings on the cheaper drill. |
