This is why the lifetime cost and profile of use should be
considered and not just the price on the ticket.
As should the cost of chucking it away when a better tool is made
for the job.
I can see that a 40 year old BOSCH saw is going to be as easy to
use as a new one, maybe.
Just because a tool can last 40 years doesn't mean it should,
times change, safety systems change, materials change buying one
built to last may mean throwing a tool away that could last
another 20 years if you didn't want some better features.
This is a valid point and should also be taken into account.
However, in extremis it is not a reason to view tools as disposable
Why not? Its the reason I view cars as being disposable.
Ultimately they are, like all things. The question is how soon.
I could buy a Lada or a BMW to go from A to B. Both achieve
that objective, but they don't do it with the same degree of speed,
comfort and longevity.
The lada does the speed limit the same as the bmw
lacks a degree of street cred, though
The lada lasts longer than the bmw.
Are you sure ?
Comfort depends on personal taste as much as anything..
If you like a spring up the arse, maybe
I *hate* leather seats for instance and would avoid buying a car with
them.
not my major consideration when buying wheels
