Chinese Versus TAIWAN Hand Tools
I have used both and in my opinion the comparison is night and day. Some stores like Auto Zone carry TAIWAN mechanic's tools And then there is MEANWELL power supplies versus mainland garbage ...

Sears, original Die Hard batteries on the west coast were made by GLOBE UNION In Oregon. They were IMHO excellent.
Because my family is a thousand miles distant I have to do my own shopping and public exposure. Even with all my protective gear I figure I have as much as a 50-50 chance of making it through August. Too many negatives to believe I will survive contaigion. Been a good ride :)
I got a circular saw from Monkey Wards, a rolling tool box and a lawn mower that wouldn't die, (I finally gave it a mercy killing) and lots other stuff. Only reason I bought tools from them is the carried work pants I liked and they were closer than Sears.
I too am in a very high risk group, and when I go hope to see you on the otherside. You have a lot of information I would like to learn from you.
I can't punch out yet. We took on our 14 year grandson in mid-December, good news is he is making good progress, thanks to the DW, but some days...he tries out patience.
