I've got a few things from Harbor freight that are Pittsburg. The adjustable wrenches, like has been said, don't hold a dimension but I don't use them too much, and when I do I don't need it to hold very close. I've also got their 1/2" socket set w/ 18" breaker bar. So far the only pc. that's junk is the ratchet, but that's because it fell into a spinning lathe chuck and blew up. Didn't like that one anyway, so I bought a different style of ratchet that's still a Pittsburg. The gear assembly likes to come loose on it, but I use that set quite often and haven't had any problems yet with them. Their pry bars are ok, but if you got something really heavy or really stuck, it'll just bend. The punches & chisels are junk. Some tools are worthless, but most of what I got is still holding up. I also have a set of metric wrenches from them, but I've only used them once or twice so far. I use them all at work in a machine hop, so they do get used & abused some. Maybe later on when I get some more money I'll invest in a better socket set, or maybe a ratchet, but for now they work fine under daily abuse. Donovan from Wisconsin I'm not afraid to spend money on tools either. My toolbox is probably worth atleast $7000 with what I've got in there.
