These guys REALLY put Craftsman tools and products to the test in ways never seen before.  This is what I would call extreme testing!

Check it out:

Some really cool footage here!

I think these tests would make more of an impact if they were done with the products that we're trying to market as competitive with contractor-grade tools (DeWalt, Milwaukee, etc.). For instance, dropping a Craftsman Professional impact driver down an elevator shaft, or using a Craftsman black rubber hose for pulling a car out of a ravine (I don't know if that's even close to realistic), or using a 19.2v C3 hammer drill as a grappling hook. Heck, we could even show off tools nobody sees at the stores, like the Craftsman stainless steel wet-dry vac.

Well, so much for Charpy Impact Testing...

I often wondered where some of those lifetime warranted tool returns came from.

Now I KNOW!

They have a submission for TOOL TESTS on the bottom of the page. You can also win tools, so give it a shot.
