Snap-On is a specific brand, and if they're making tools in China I was
unaware of that. Far as I know, they're all made in Kenosha, Wisconsin.


Pneumatic tools are made in Natick, Ma. Have been for quite some time. I
installed several machines there in the late 80's. I was last there in 2002
IIRC. The plant in Kenosha is closed, most of it was consolidated into a
plant north of Milwaukee, and into another plant down south. They are still
investing in new equipment and still making everything in the USA AFAIK.
