Sorry George,

Those cheep chink tools really are good enough. The quality is reasonable and like one of the posts above they make the same measurements as the good tools, and do just as well, aparently even better than I suspected they could. They ain't rocket science and if they work and feel good at first they will do any home project as well as the best tool. The very best tools will hold up for many many years of everyday use and abuse, but at home they will never see this kind of action so why pay for something you do not need?

As to the Jap crap, Mit tool the same thing was said many years ago, and in some places is still said, thats why Starret is no longer making tools in the US or are they?
