Walked in to Ace Hardware yesterday and saw a display for Craftsman tools.
I don't know how extensive the collection will be, but it's good news
for anyone who's closer to an Ace than a Sears.

I have lots of Craftsman hand tools and I've only had to use their
lifetime warranty once. I've never been a fan of their power tools, but
their hand tools have never let me down.

(before you state the obvious... that one occasion was the result of me
being stupid, not a defect... but they still honored it.)

Once?

*Once?*

Don't you use Phillips screw drivers? I can't tell you how many worn
Phillips screwdrivers, of all different sizes, I've traded in. As soon
as they get the slightest bit rounded, back they go. Better I make a
trip to the store than strip a screw when I least need it to happen.

Let me give you a small hint/trick to make your Philips head screw drivers
last longer before rounding. If you grinde a little of the point off, the
tip will actually seat deeper and better in the screw head. Often the screw
heads are short/not as deep, compared to the longer point on the driver tip.
