Tool advice from this gearhead:

Educate yourself as to what it is you need. Shop price so you know what any
particular tool sells for.

THEN buy the best you can afford, but if you know what you need and what
they usually cost, you can always get a deal, second hand, etc.

Buy with the anticipation of what you will need a year from now. Lots of
times, when you get to working with the tools, you will discover that the
light duty smaller tools won't cut it once you really start to apply them.
Then you will have to buy bigger and better, and will have to take a beating
$$ wise on the tools unless you picked them up at a good price.

Lastly, a guy can't have too many tools.

MHO from my experiences.
