Try Stahlwille, god German high quality tools.

God German, huh?


I went and looked at their safety wire twisters at their website.
Gosh, I would have bought them instead of the Snap-Ons if I had known.
Thanks for the tip.

Did you find prices? I went to that web site and there's no prices that I
can see.

Hmm. Does ACE have things like safety wire pliers?

For crying out loud, yawn, learn to safety by hand. I can safety one
handed in many places the pliers won't fit.

Thank you for your concern, if I decide to start personally insulting
someone I will take your suggestion into mind. Please note in this case
I made no insult.

You have no room to talk, Juan. You started this thread with a racial
insult.- "Tools built by people of Chinese extraction are poorly build".
That's not true. Perhaps you should change the title of the thread to
"Puerto Ricans BUY poor tools". That's the problem here, you bought lousy
tools.

At $100 a pop for the smallest set of safety wire pliers? I don't think so.
I am not interested in subsidizing airshow display trailers and parties,
performer sponsorships, etc. What I want is realiable tools at reasonable
prices.

I feel your pain.

30 years ago, there was middle grades of tools
that were reasonably priced and would last a
lifetime. The middle ground seems to have
disappeared.

I'm still ok with the most expensive grade of
Craftsman tools. They are not as good as they
used to be, but are still better than most of
the crap in hardware stores.

As to the safety wire pliers, I'd expect to
pay $100 for a quality pair. They are a low
volume item and must be assembled from several
parts. Even a decent pair of vicegrips cost
$20 these days and they probably turn them
out in the 100's of thousands.

Keep an eye on military surplus sales. You
might find the one you used in the Marines (:
I'd certainly like to have the one that was
in my toolbox in the Army.

Not a racial insult, when it is true that the nation of China has low quality
steel, which they do.

Perhaps I'm dense, but how do you find the prices, and then go about ordering
their tools? I didn't see how to do that, on their site.

I can't find them now, but did find a TN company, Samstag, where you
can special order them at roughly the same price:

listed. ???
