Myth Busters Tool Challange November 30, 2005, 02:20:44 AM ok, i'd like to get some help from anybody hear...i posted on the myth buster website to get something tested and i somehow doubt it ever will, but i want to try like hell to get it approved. my idea is to have the top brand tools compaired to each other and find out who is better than who. also i want them compaired to lesser quality brands to find out if craftsman realy holds up. iv seen alot of arguments in places about craftsman stuff being trash, but realy i think its people abusing them, so anyhow... hear is a link to my post on the forum, and a link to the show. i hope to have some people hear post on my message aproving it, so hopefully it gets some attention... the title is called tool qualitypostMyth Buster SiteShow Idea Forum Quote Selected
