As a machinist for over 30 years, I own MANY Starrett tools.

The first bender shown...I like to see the machine that made the mandrels. The last one shown...what a big Chinese Wok!

Had one for years, before I owned it someone overloaded it or car rolled and bent it. Threw it out a few years ago, had a few oops with it. Didn't have or had other priorities for money, dumb luck I never got hurt.

I once took an 18", 1/2" drive breaker bar back to Sears because it had a half moon bend in the handle.
He asked "How long was the cheater?"
I said "Only 6'."
He asked, "Did you break it loose?"
I said "Absolutely"
He said "Go grab a new one off the rack".
I miss Sears.
