Title: Works OK after some prep
Product review: The picture looks better than the real product. I wasn't impressed with the finish on the handle, but hey, it was $11. A little sandpaper helped.I agree with another reviewer about the cheap stenciling of the SHOP FOX. I too sanded that garbage off.I wasn't able to use it for more than few swings on the chisel before the head started coming loose. Regardless of how much I tightened it, the thing continued to come lose. Tightening it too much started to draw the wood screw that holds the head on out of the handle. I finally glued the screw into the handle, and the head onto the screw with some Titebond II and let it sit overnight. It's worked fine since then.I was a little leery about buying shop fox tools given their general poor ratings I've come across. This tool more-or-less confirms I will never buy another shop fox tool again. Good thing I tested out shop fox with an inexpensive tool.
