I use a *lot* of tools. The vast majority of my larger power tools are Craftsman - table saw, cordless tools (C3 19.2 volt), scroll saw. The only issue I have with the Craftsman tools are the batteries for the C3 tools - 3 of the 4 NiCads have died, and #4 is on it's way out. I'll probably buy some LiIon batteries for the tools, just because I have so many of them.
The most used power tool on the hobby side is my Dremel rotary tool. It's extremely versatile and well worth the investment. I also really enjoy the Dermel Multi-max. It saved a lot of hours the last time I installed a Pergo floor.
There are a few one-offs... Ryobi compound mitre saw, Shopvac, Skilsaw circular saw. I even have a few Harbor Freight powertools - they're cheap. They have been solid performers for what I do, and the build quality seems OK.
My wish list includes a router and table. No room in the shed, though. Oh well...
