Harbor Freight steppin' up.

You have to be selective about what you buy from HF.

If it's got an electric motor, I'm leery.

That said, I bought their small band saw used and it's been fine for a decade, but could be more precise.
Otherwise though I couldn't afford one.

The $80 marine winch did real good as well. The $50 ATV winch is not as good.

I've heard the "if you made money with your tools..." line many times but I just don't get how a $37 9/16 wrench gets a nut off any better than a $5 wrench, although I will give you that a $1 wrench made from softer metal and/or not to the correct tolerance is definitely inferior.
