Thanks, Tina. Its hard to find American made tools, aside from ultra-high 
priced brands like Snap-On and Matco (and I don't think they'll sell to 
anyone but professional mechanics). Craftsman weren't quite that expensive, 
and were good. Now they're crap, but still expensive!

    It's sad but they didn't keep up with the times.  I agree about the 
tools.
    We always bought Craftsman when they were made in the USA.  Now we have 
to
    search to find brands made in the USA.  If it's at all possible, we never
    buy anything made in China.
    
    You are documenting a passing era.
