Cheap Spanners, they're dangerous

I use an extensive array of tools and machinery in my business. Some cheap and some top quality depending on their intended use.

An example of spanners is an el cheapo 10mm ring spanner that rounded out the first time I used it. Another is that I use 10mm and 13mm sockets on a rattle gun a hell of a lot. The 10 is a $1.50 job and the 13 is a $9 Sidchrome. The 10 is rounded out and the Sidchrome is like new.

My point is, if I was out in the middle of nowhere and had to do a repair job, I would take the best quality tools I could afford. Not being able to undo a particular bolt size can be the difference between being stuck and moving on. Not to mention skinned knuckles.

Incidentally, Supercheap have a range of their premium spanners which they compare with Kinchrome and offer a lifetime warranty. I'm here to tell you they are top quality at a fair price; I've thrashed them to death.
