yea, I only use a soldering gun every now and then ..
but even with snap on tools, they'll die eventually ..
we have snap-on and matco tools at college (collision repair) and I have to say the sure do beat a craftsmen tool with a stick ..
out of a year there, ive only seen two things happen ..
1) chipped screwdriver - some newbie was using it as a pry bar
2) broken body hammer - someone had to be beating the crap out of something with it
other than that i'll see how my benzomatic torch does .. was only $24 .. how much was the blue point one?
(my no-name torch started the no light thing after 4 minutes of use so dont worry too much
)
