You may have tested the particular item, but who's to say that when _I_
buy one, it won't be the same branding, but completely diffferent (and even
junkier) guts? That's how these cheap tool makers work, isn't it? (That's
how cheap PC builders work).

Also, I have some air tools, and use them from time-to-time, but what the
heck is an air screwdriver?

Any newbie who does a Google group search can tell that I provide help
quite often here, as well as learning a whole bunch myself:

Yet a search for your posts includes one post, a "helpful" list of
Harbor Freight items:

Stop the two bit detective work. I never claimed to be a long time Usenet
poster. That does not put a dent in my woodworking experience. Like I
said,
the specific tools that I endorsed are fine for a beginner. Not an
advanced
amateur or a pro. And yes, I agree that a good amount of the HF stuff is
crap, the the stuff I bought for my grandson turned out to be fine.
