Default Re: Harbor Freight Tools that don't suck

I bought a tubing notcher there, it was as good as the name brand one I have used at a friend's shop. Do NOT however buy the bi-metal hole saw bits for said Tube notcher there. Buy good hole saws elsewhere. Trust me.

I also buy things like 5lb sledge hammers there. How can you screw up a hunk of steel on the end of a stick?

I also have the manual tire changer. It has mounted 4 sets of 35-37" offroad tires for me and my friends.

Overall, I try and stick to things without moving parts.

The WORST thing I ever bought there was the Garden Tractor Cart/Trailer. We filled it up with dirt to level with the top of the box and it self destructed in the middle of our patio... And we had to clean up/finish the job with the old fasioned wheel barrow. I have since gotten a FEL, and I will build my next garden trailer to be MUCH more robust than that one. Still, it wasn't nearly worth the $75 it cost on Sale.
