  • No matter what level of effort you’ll be using… don’t get the Walmart brand. Yeah, they’re good for beginners and can handle the occasional weekend project. But even you don’t use them enough to wear them out, the other dads/men will make fun of you for having the hardware equivalent of velcro shoes from the dollar store.

    Honest answer: I started with DeWalt. Had issues. Went to Milwaukee. Never regretted it.

    You don’t work where I work then.

    Family-owned business. Realizes they’re behind-the-ball on technology and practices. Hires college-educated & outside people to make suggestions.

    “Well none of that makes sense to us. Forget all that and do it our way.”

    “That way is wrong.”

    “Well it’s our business, we’ll do it how we want.”

    Then they get all <surprised pikachu> when the talented people get burnt out and quit after a few weeks. Eventually it’s “well these kids just don’t want to work hard like we do.”
