I've tried my best to not become political in this forum but it is difficult. To enshrine the art of improving, remanufacturing, restoring, and saving earth's resources is non-existent.
So-called environmentalists are some of the worst culprits on the face of the earth.
Now you know why I endorse companies like Rolls & Surrette, Concorde, and other "more for your money" manufacturers. Especially if products are made entirely in the USA. If you compare a SIOUX electric drill to a Japanese drill you'll find the Sioux uses a chuck that lasts three to four times as long and a chuck bearing that will do the same.
I will not buy off-shore cobalt drills. For punche's lifespan GREENLEE, many of my hand tools are Milwaukee, not because I'm a prude or nationalistic, but because per hour of Lifespan they are cheaper to use. Seattle, has perhaps a dozen commercial battery flooded battery manufacturers catering to the marine industry. These companies cannot afford to expand their marketing region much like I could not expand my alternator market. But some of these manufacturers could put even premium USA flooded battery manufacturers in a tight squeeze. Yes I am talking Trojan and Deka. Caterpillar knows a thin-plate 8-D battery will destroy itself with vibration so they label their choice in battery as a private label.
I use a lot of specialty fasteners. The chinese provide KEPS integral starwasher nuts that flatten the star grip to useless flat on the first tightening and they do NOT resist backing off.
All of this is why I have lost respect for the chew and spit society.
