I've been working on this article on/off for a while. It's OK to go live because it's accurate enough without going into too much detail, it explains all the basics of use and care, and has some brand recommendations.

Disclaimer : I am not an engineer and the article may have some errors. If so, please post your corrections so it can be updated.

3rd, craftsman tools in general are good but not 1st quality.
