Default I've had it with Chinese tools!

The SW pliers I bought suck because the tips don't even meet when you
tighten your grip. Part of it is my fault for not paying good attention
when I bought them.


They don't have to meet, if they are still able to grip the thinest piece
of safety wire you will use.


Kinda hard to do if they don't even try to meet.

They do not have to be able to twist thread! G


Yeah, yeah.

Lineman's pliers are built like that. They do not meet, but still will
grip down to about 18 gauge wire.


Mine meet, but not close enough at the tip, which after working for years
with good tools in the Corps I think they should.

If they are a brand that Craftsman carries, take it to any Sears store.
They will replace them on the spot, no receipt, no questions asked.


but does Craftsman sell at OSH?

At least that is my experience. It does not matter where you bought them.
Don't ask don't tell, or something like that!


I agree. Sears does honor its warranties.
