I started my time with a set of Stanley tools, they did the job quite well, still got al the 1/4 3/8 and 1/2 sockets, the ratchets and extensions/bars have all died, replaced them with snap-on as i was sick of sending them back for warrenty, I'm not a fan of snap-on spanners as they are abit sharp, running repco ones, screwdrivers are all snap-on old school hard handle ones, the soft grip ones are cr@p, prybars 3/4 gear and torquewrenches are all snap-on, sick of breaking other brands, used to run alot of mid-range tools but if it broke once i brought a snap-on one, i was field service for a long while, nothing worse thn being in the middle of no-where with a broken tool/s which could make the job easier/faster but at the same time you have to be prepared to cut/weld/make a tool to get the job done if you need to so dont buy things you can't bring yourself to take an oxy to if need be to get a result with a break down
