I knew that would get you in here Are those junk cummins tool shows that go on the same cummins company that makes the CTD???????I hope not all the stuff Ive bought @ the show was trash I mean real fire starters thats all they were good for. stainless steel plires that rust now thats quality grinder that burnt up when just running in the air. wow I hope this cummins name on the side of this trash isnt the same company that is resonsible for making my CTD I bet that cummins makes Snap-on Tell all those furd boys that.

 

That's funny that you started this thread about Cummins tools... I was just about to ask everyone about them. I'd never even heard about them up until about a week ago. There is a local dealer for these tools in my area and they sent me a flyer in the mail with some rediculously low prices. I was skeptical about the quality, so I'm glad I read your post before buying anything from them... you saved me some valuable time and $$... thanks!

BTW, I wonder if there is a TSB out there for your pliers and grinder?!

 

the finest quality to be had almost as good as harbor freights own brand.

 

We just had a Cummins "road show" stop this past weekend in a nearby town in my corner of "hicksville". Quality stuff, all of it! All of the name brand stuff was recon'd. I looked but "I don't think so...."

 

Are you trying to say that a $9.99 drill is not quality?

Ive had decent luck with some of their hobby tools.
Such as very small screw driver sets, small hand crafting tools and such.

I know nothing about their heavier equipment, but Id guess it was the same as Harbor Freight stuff.

SO cummins from CTD has been around longer so didnt these junk tools infringe on a copyright or something by useing the name

 

Here's another one.

Found on the "about" page.

Since it's they guy's last name, I don't think copywrite applies.
And he's using a totally different logo.

A friend of mine bought a Harbor Frieght angle grinder.

Spun great until you touched it to something, then didn't have enough power to keep spinning.
