A bit off topic but if you use av gas in your garden equipment you can leave it in the tank for 2 years without it going bad. Avoid getting it on your hands if possible. It has 4 cc of lead per gallon.

As far as tools go, I am filthy rich so I buy the best high priced tools available. They last forever.
