Got a new machine with what seems to be nothing but torx screws and need 1/4" and 3/8" drive bits but I don't wanna pay Snap On or SKS prices.
Any USA made stuff ya'll could recommend?

You get what you pay for in tools, and when you use them everyday to make a living, there is a difference. Snap-on is tops on my list, and there are some really good deals on ebay for used stuff....much less than buying off the truck.

I 100% agree that Snap On is good stuff, but I'm not using these to make a living.
Trying to avoid China schidt and support Americans without dipping into savings for a set of tools that I'll use three times before the next Presidential Election.

Thanks man. Looking for a socket set though. Screw driver set would work, but I kinda have a thing about Torx screws and my Makita Impact Driver going together like Forrest Gump and whats her slut.... Jeez Higginez..........you're awfully picky..............must be from California  Good luck with it. If you're not in need of it right away, fleabay or such might be your best bet in finding something reasonably priced. Maybe look for old Craftsman stuff. I've got a drill bit set from 30-40 years ago, hole saws, nut drivers, all sorts of bits for driving. Something like that might go for a decent price if you can find one, and mine is from the American Made days.
