Five grand is ample. Buy as you need for each project.

Usa?

Take your shit, and go to any big local flea market. Bring 300 bucks, you'll find everything you need.

In a year, i've bought enough tools to have myself full general/electrical/plumbing kits (<with tons of sharkbites). I have a few sawzalls and skill saws, 2 table saws, 2 chop saws, 2 compressors, 2 chainsaws.

Spent probably about 200 bucks.

I'm also not mentioning general shit like hammers, pliers, wrenches, etc.. those are worthless. You shouldn't pay more than 25c/$1 for stuff like that even new.

I like the idea of buying new so I can jew the seller if something turns out to be shit quality.

harbor freight

How does that rank in the nice quality tools category?

>>1070383
used tools. look on craigslist for used tools. having "nice shit" is a meme. its all about functionality.

use harbor freight to fill in gaps.

When the goal is fuck around, it ranks nice enough, as long as you know which ones the gems are. Impact sockets? Fine. Screwdrives? Fuck off.

A friend of mine says "buy the tools there but not the bits".
Yeah, you have to be careful, but they do have some good bargains.
I bought a table router there because it was slightly cheaper than a similar tools elsewhere, but I bought my table saw at Home Depot because it was a better deal.
