I went to home depot this afternoon to get a new end for my hose, and it didn't fit the hose end fit after a fashion but the clamp was too small. i managed to bust a couple of knuckles before i went to the parts store and got a regular hose clamp and fixed it in about 2 minutes. Home Depot, Menards, and Wal-Mart all sell cheap chinese made crap at a premium price. i have decided that if I can't get American made products I'm not going to buy any thing. if i have to i will make what ever i can, if i can't I'll just do with out. china and their non standard products Suck!
Maybe people will start demanding American made products. i don't mind paying for quality, and do so when ever possible.
