Re: cheap tools?

I have Harbor Frieght impact sockets as well (the pittsburg ones) and have worked perfectly fine. I think some tools are ok to cheap out on when you're just doing stuff at home, and don't run a business, like flat head screwdrivers, my pry bar, those little dental pick tools, flashlight, and their gear wrenches are pretty decent. But certain things, like a torque wrench, or anything that's used for some sort of precision, I would look elsewhere.
