3/8 bluepoint electric impact (liked it better than the snap on)
Snap on electric 9.2 screw gun
And Miller auto darkening welding helment (best money ever spent) my eyes thank me everyday.

On a side note did you all know that as of FEB. 2010 the majority of all snap on hand tools (sockets, rachets, etc..) will be made in good ol china. My snap on guy had a corp. rep. on his truck and told us that.. Ol well Matco it is...

That is 100% false

That is 100% false

if its a lie the snap-on rep. told it. He said they just purchased a china based company to start building the hard line (sockets, rachets, etc..). He said not to worry though they will still be built to the snap-on standards. Snap-on made in china is what he said. To me.. not second hand info..He said it to me

Probably for Blue point. I own and look at a lot of blue point stuff. Personally I would now buy Ingersol-Rand air tools over Blue point for the same price. A much better quality. And some of the Snap On stuff I have is made in China, look at the electronics you have that are made by them. My 7.6 volt cordless screwdriver is made in China, My Snap On heat gun is made in the Czech Republic. So Snap on is way overpriced but you might not regret the purchase if you use it every day though.
