Die grinders and rotary tools are handheld power tools used for grinding, sanding, honing, polishing, or machining material (typically metal, but also plastic or wood). Some of them are ok, but they never last. And at nearly 600 bucks cheaper, that's kinda expected.įail: anything Mastercraft that relies on steel to cut (ie drill bits, taps, hacksaw blades, ect) carbide stuff such as tablesaw blades is pretty decent though.įail: from my experience anything Mastercraft with a motor. No, not a replacement for micrometers, but as good as any calipers I have seen, short of starrett master precision verniers. Compared them against a couple starrett micrometers, and they read dead on. Pass: wood handled ball pien hammers, once you sand the varnish off and oil the handle. Pass: all Mastercraft pliers except the waterpump/channelock style ones. Not as nice as my plvmbs or macs, but I have never had an issue with any of them Works well, and is well built ( all metal ). I use this to heat up my basement room, and warm up the garage. Not 100% accurate, they usually stop at about 5ft/lbs under their rating.īought this on sale for $45, great buy. ![]() We use these at school for tire changes to prevent the idiots from snapping off lugs. Hey, its a 3/8 ratchet that works, and the handle extends. They all burn out within a few months, and are generally not really efficient. The idea of it turning when swinging in both directions is a neat idea, but the three that I used and returned all stripped themselves within a 1/2 hour of use.Īny of the Cheap Coil Element Fan heaters. I bought one of these on sale last year for myself to use in my automotive class. Used it to break up some tile, and to remove some rusted bolts. ![]() Good power, over built, good grip, very weighty. Same as all of the other cheap guns, great on sale. Pass: Wrenches, Sockets, Especially the big impact socket kit in the grey blow molded case that goes on sale for 89.99, The IR air tools, Stanley tape measure, Diamond tip screwdrivers with the hammer cap, The biggest tap & die set that they make which also goes on sale for next to nothing, Cheap multimeters that almost never die and are pretty much spot on compared to the Fluke(read: keep in every car I drive), Fiberglass handle ball peins/sledge/claw hammers. ![]() Screwdrivers are a bit weak, but cheap and lifetime warranty(read: the perfect set for the wife to use) I do have a nice drill set too, and use many nice bits at work but for a guy doing work at home that set on sale kicks a lot of ass, more so if you have a bench grinder and can sharpen bits/use proper drilling practise.įail: Stud finders in the mastercraft flavour Although I do keep mine sharp and use lube I use them often in plate up to 1/4", and occasionally thicker stuff as well with pretty much no problem at all. You must have either got a reeeeeeally bad set or are reeeeeeally bad at over exaggerating. ![]()
