Merry Christmas to me

It’s a 60 mile round trip for me so I try to research every bigger item I’m interested in. I even follow a Harbor Freight group on Facebook. I also try to buy the higher level item and not the lower shelf stuff. Example I bought the biggest drill press they offer in store as I use mine a lot. The only bad review on it was a noisy motor so I looked and I had a brand new one from my dads stock that I grabbed after he passed away. Seven years later it’s still going strong.

Several years ago ago I found an anvil that was made in Russia and thought about buying it (cheap) but already had a couple of rail road rails that were cut to do that I needed. I even smacked it with one of HF's big hammers and it passed the test lol. Some of their stuff is pretty good but lots of it isn't. Just gotta 'test' it I guess lol. I don't buy open end wrenches etc from them but have bought a couple of floor jacks there. Still, I'm leary so I'm careful about them....
