Bruce, I’m a harbor freight regular, however when working (or conserving) historic kit, I don’t want to screw it up worse than it is with a hand tool that tears up the fasteners. Right tool at the right time was my dad’s signature line… Martin Sent from my iPhone
Of course, this is none of my business (as a lurker on this list) but I must point out that the hand tools at Harbor Freight are mostly of quite good quality. I use these in my shop and have little complaint. Their main claim to fame is price -- quite low, generally. It is no longer a situation like in the '60's when you'd buy a set of Allen wrenches from the $1 bin at the auto parts store and the damned thing would twist into a hexagonal screw the first time you applied any torque to it.
