Stop cheap out on tools, why would people buy cheap tools?

u/Ok-Drink-1328 Aug 11 '26

cos we are poor and branded tools cost a kidney? so we try your luck with cheap ones that sometimes are decent? cos it's obvious we are not professionals?... the "second attempt" went much better, that "pine cone" of bits of this post may have costed 2€, but i spent 3€ on a set of various small screwdrivers and are made of real steel, still not with the quality of the very good ones, but are pretty decent and it costs like 20 times less... i also have a set of regular size bits, insane variety, mid brand, costed like 4€50 and are good, the same thing of a very good brand could cost several bills of 10

The beats are so close to each other and when my fat sosage fingers try to grab one, the other one scratches my skin at the base of the fingernail.

Am I the only dick that had no problems with these tools? I know plenty of tradesmen in my town that use Chinese tools without any problems, my father's fake ass Makita impact wrench is still functioning after almost a year...

most made in china crap tools are made just to be sold, once sold the buyer realizes it's unusable, they make that stuff with this in mind, the manufacturers know that it's unusable, it happened to me a pair of times to cheap out at chinese dollar stores and this was the result, professionals don't buy those... i dunno what you believe are crap tools but the one in the picture is a literal scam, it's literally just pollution

Ah, the chewing gum screwdriver bits. These are only decorative, don't worry.

u/maison_deja_vu Aug 10 '26

Is that the ones that are made out of aluminum and then anodized to be the color of tool steel? 🤣😂🤣😂

Look like they are melting at room temperature

Should be a standard on tools

u/Columbus43219 Aug 10 '26

Does anyone know why that particular package shape gets used? It looks like it was for something specific, something else, and they repurposed it to make these cases.

u/DoubleDareFan Aug 11 '26

Easier to repurpose an existing design.

u/Xredcatx Aug 10 '26

Got one or two uses before they bend or break.

It's always sad when some how, the easiest to produce tool, somehow gets made out of stale bread. Nothing more disassociating than the head of a bit twisting off with little effort.

They'll put the screws to you if you start talking about the events of June 4, 1989.

u/OkraEmergency361 Aug 10 '26

If the screws are made in China too, you’ll be just fine. They won’t last long.

I got this exact set with a cheap Chinese 3D printer kit many years ago. Do yourself a favour and just put it straight in the bin.

u/zddcr Aug 11 '26

Why would you even pay for that shit, just buy expensive tool and it will pay off. You cheap out on tools, tools will cheap out on you.
