Are there any stores locally like Harbor Freight? Tryin to get some stuff for my personal garage at home (tool boxes, power tools, mechanic's tools, etc.), but everywhere I've been to is either very expensive, or just don't have what i'm looking for. I know that HF quality is questionable but i think for personal use they're ok. Eg. I bought a Pittsburgh torque wrench locally and have no complaints. Works great for my uses. And i know HF carries this brand and many other 'not so popular' brands where the quality isn't as bad as you may think for fractions of the cost of more popular brands. They also carry lots of cool gadgets and tools to make jobs easier. Can someone point me in the right direction if a place like this even exists locally?

Maye hardware. They are pushing a brand called saco i believe. Everything from angle grinders to chopsaws to screwdrivers. But the stuff isn't that cheap for the cheap quality you are getting.

That's exactly the problem i'm having. Everywhere has 'cheap tools' that aren't so cheap. I cringe when i see stuff online for wayyy less than it sells for locally. Just last week i bought a Dremel 100 which is less than $40usd on amazon. Paid $489tt at True Value in El Socorro (could go crazy in there if i had the means tho) but tanx for the info Aba.

He has cleaned a few car interiors with it so far and the results are always great


Think it cost about 1k landed
