Re: What's the best tool you SHOULDN'T have bought?

Just broke my last blade in a hand operated sheet metal nibbler I got from Eastwood, would be the 6th or 8th blade I have broken, you are supposed to be able to make curved cuts with it but that didn't happen. I think it's too easy for the metal to double over on itself, learned my lesson, no more replacements at $16/pair.
