Sears. Craftsman, Die Hard, Adios
Sears, the 125-year-old icon, has 24 hours to survive. The employer of more than 68,000 filed for bankruptcy in October. Its last shot at survival is a $4.6 billion proposal put forward by its chai...

Snap On, Mac, Wiha tools are stronger because it's magic?
Molybdenum has been explained in so many articles it isn't funny. When metal performance is important pure strength, two alloys stand out. Chromium and Molybdenum. Chrome Moly
Want springiness? Add vanadium. Engine valve springs contain a significant % of vanadium.
But lowly nickel as an alloying agent is good for but one thing corrosion resistance.
Manganese is a wonderful alloy until it comes time to work it.
Anyone who is unfamiliar with metal alloying needs to source MACHINERY's HANDBOOK. And read it. That's an immediately available resource.
And Harbor Freight does not pick up the telephone and dial people's factory no 16 and tell them how to build their tools. I am invited constantly via email to contact CHINA SOURCE and express my opinions (as a "buyer") with any one of (more than 20) manufacturers) about what was available. It takes really big guns to convert a plant to dedicated design manufacturing. Like Honda. In plant they have Korean over-seers. Lin, told me about the persistent racial divide between the Chinese and Japanese. So manufacturers use intermediaries like Koreans to force factories and workers to toe the line.
I am critical of forum participants who do not wish to engage themselves, which means apply themselves to resolving a problem. Let's take MACHINERY'S HANDBOOK. It's the standard of the industry for many design areas not just metallurgical. No one pays me to act as Wiki RV so I have to abbreviate and leave off nine suffixes and 23 footnotes to everything I write. Disagree? Then I welcome factual challenges. Want more information on tools and molybdenum? Source general information about WhiHa. They offer it. Ask Snap On in an email.
I am curious so I ask manufacturers questions. Almost always I get gracious letter back.
Lin Xao Peng over the years has been vital for answering general inquiries about how China Manufacturing works although our contacts have become less and less frequent. Yeah he pumped me for information about flooded batteries. And I gave not manufacturing secrets but earfulls about what it takes to make a crappy battery.
People have the ability to learn. Learning is much more preferable to guessing. Study, research, start putting 2 and 2 together. But it takes switching off the television and effort to learn.
And don't try burning me about living in Mexico. Rather than become homeless, a drug addict or pusher I am doing with less money what many of you pay in state taxes.
