CMON!!!!!!!!
 
I would like to say thanks to cheap tools, especially my gear puller that didnt come with directions,which help me strip threads..

on the good side, thank you good tool companys, I just broke a 50 year old wrench, I hope It takes another 50 years to break the other half:rofl:

I had an 8" scar on my arm from a snapped cheap easy-out for a while.

Ha ha nope.

But I was pissed for a few reasons:

1.) I got cut and bloody (obviously)
2.) I broke a tool

and most importantly:

3.) It broke off flush IN the bolt, and even though it was a cheap POS it was still harder than any drill bit I had so I couldn't drill it out. I ended up grinding it down, cutting the head of a bolt off and welding the threads onto the remains of the easy out. Turned out great for a hack job, actually.

Since then I've always been wary of cheap or imported tools...
