I've bought a lot of HF air tools with mixed luck. All of my in-line air tools have worked great being used with wire wheels and cut-off wheels. I also really like my HF air drill; it is the cheapest one they offer but I use it on stainless whenever I can. I keep them well oiled. My air-powered angle grinders, on the other hand, both stripped their gear boxes in the same week. I also have a 1/2" drive air impact wrench that suddenly lost most of it's torque one day and is now pretty useless. I like my HF sockets and impact sockets. One of my impact socket sets has a very rough finish because HF quality control is about non-existent. I have to watch for rust diligently. I found a 1/2" click-type torque wrench there for $14 once. I've only used it once so far. I bought sets of T-handle allen wrenches for dirt cheap and I think they're great. My HF screwdrivers are nice too. The only complaint I have about my HF digital calipers is that it doesn't display fractional. I got a large set of transfer punches there for really cheap and I've been happy with them. A lot of stuff I've bought there hasn't worked as well as I had hoped or not at all. My HF bolt extractor kit hasn't ever turned a drat thing. My air-saw is only useful when it is the only tool that will fit. My HF punches and chisels are so soft that I have to re-grind the faces every time I use them.
