- you might see if your local parts house has a leasing program..it's
- nice..i got a 30mm socket to do something.the way this one worked was
- you pay for the part, they give it to you, you bring it back within the
- alloted time(2 days, i think i had), you get a fulll refund..you lose the
- tool, break the tool, or just do notshow up on time, you have bought it.
- you now have a tool, and they now have the full payment for it....i think
- it's kinda neat, though can be a pain...but not a bad system..maybe some
- one near you has such a thing?
