In all seriousness, my dad was a mechanic, and he’d buy HF air impact guns instead of Mac or Matco or Snap-On. The nice ones cost four to six times as much, and needed to be serviced about every 18 months, during which time he was down a gun.
So he’d buy two or three HF guns, use one till it broke in six months, switch to another, replenish stock at his convenience.
I would probably buy a replica pope whacker, the U.S. congressional mace if virally advertised, or even a golden shovel, engraved with a jaunty nihilistic saying, like “Digging my own grave!”
I got a golden shovel for Christmas 2017. I was (am) obsessed with twin peaks and my wife made one for me like from the show (the comeback season or whatever). Because I have to dig myself out of the shit.
I bought one of those at Harbor Freight for like ¼ the price the Vatican probably paid.
Yeah but it breaks after hitting 2 popes
that’s still a good 40-50 years of use!
Still cheaper to replace when it breaks than the Snap-On one.
That’s the cool thing about harbor freight. How many popes you really gonna hit on any given day?

Secondhand, Harbor Freight, and Ryobi is the way for most tools.
As many as it takes.
I was just thinking that Stanley Tools should capitalize on Stanley’s success and release a line of replica ceremonial tools backed by a viral campaign instead of suing them for their success.
