I don't think I even own a tool that could be used to work

under rated.

Unfortunately the Craftsman name is next to meaningless these days, their
stuff is made by the same factories as all the other low-to-mid range tools
and their replacement policy has become replacing a broken tool with a
cheaper one if they can get away with it. Porter-Cable is heading down the
same road since being bought by Black & Decker, I hate seeing that happen to
formerly superior companies.
