Default Craftsman vs Porter Cable air tools?

I just got my air compressor from Sears and want top of the line air tools.

What brand air tools do you guys use?

IR for me too. Great tools. I think some of the higher priced Craftsman air tools are relabeled IR tools.

I don't think you could go wrong with either of the IR or PC stuff.

not on air tools or power tools. Just hand tools. But you can purchase a product protection plan.

Ingersoll Rand tools are good. Chicago Pneumatic are also top of the line as well as Snapon's air tools if you've got the coin for those. For Sanders you can't beat Hutchins or National Detroit.

yea craftsman used to offer a lifetime warranty and if they still do I would go with them, incase anything breaks you just go and get a new one

Thanks guys but with the incompetant US mail service I want to buy locally which means Lowes, Home Depot and Sears. From these store where would you buy?

Thanks again for helping with my decision.
