I'm not a pro wrench, so my collection is mostly mix and match. My dad had all Craftsman tools, so early on, I inherited his dedication to the brand. I purchased my core set of Craftsman tools in high school, but I've supplemented with a variety of other tools (Husky, Crescent, Snap On), but I've abandoned the Craftsman fetish ever since the neighbor Sears store closed down 10 years ago. My 1/2" Craftsman ratchet finally broke after 30 years of service.

Lately, all my tool purchases have been from Costco (plier sets, needle nose, vice-grips, etc) because of the low cost, but I might start collecting Snap-On tools if I could find a good cheap source (with the emphasis on cheap).
