NO TIME FOR poor quality tools

Some cheap tools are cost effective. I am death on shovels (or shovel handles, anyway), so I generally buy the $7 versions. One time I bought a $30 shovel, fiberglass handle, etc. The fiberglass didn't hold up well in the sun and after a couple of winters it was all split and hard to hold. It lasted less time than the wooden handled $7 versions. PS: I paint the shovel handles bright red so I can find them. Adds another dollar to the cost (the paint wears off and has to be renewed occasionally). The red handled shovel makes a good marker to let me know where I left off working in a row. I can see it 400' away. I buy all my hand tools at Sears, NOTHING beats the Craftsman deal. I bought a digging fork almost twenty years ago, last year I returned the SIXTH one for a new one. Another half dozen large pruners have been returned and a couple of shovels. You can't beat it, buy it ONCE and you're done, when it breaks take it back. They cost a bit more initally but make up for it in the long run. |
