Hay Guys,

  I just visited the Sna-On Store.  A 20 - 200 ft lb "click-type" torque
wrench is listed at $225 and the case is extra.  I read the warranty: 1
year.   They can shove it.  I thing Snap-On tools are overpriced but
someone has to pay for the fancy truck and front door service.  

  Harbor freight shows one with a lifetime warranty for $26.99.  Made by
Pittsburgh.  Sears or this?

  Cheers,

  CR
