Agreed. Also, you don't probably need highest-end tools (e.g. most expensive chisels) as a family handyman. I've come to conclude that once you're good with sharpening, even lower-end tools do the job just fine on most "home improvement" cases.
First blame the man, not the tool, as always.
The best middle ground seems to be buying well-kept professional tools second hand, though. It is also strangely enjoyable to hunt for these online.
- theshrike79 4y agoMy rule for tools is: 1) Buy the second cheapest one (Don't get the shittiest no-brand one, but just above it) 2) If you reach the limits of the tool or it breaks down from using it so much, get the best The only things I've reached step 2 is my hammer drill and circular saw. Both went from corded to cordless. Still on step 1 with my 3D Printer, for example =)
