Like others have said, depends on what you want to do.
In our business you sometimes have to make tools do what you need them to do,like go around corners.
Watch the guy in charge of the tool board turn purple as he shows up just in time to see a $$$ dollar Snap-On wrench cooling after some "modification".
We always keep a couple of "single use" tools around for just such contingencies.
I have a 4 1/2 inch HF angle grinder that just keeps going and going.... despite the collet lock missing and no grease in the gearbox.
