Craftsman Labs’ Power Tool Stress Tests

Craftsman Labs is a small microsite that features videos of Craftsman power and hand tools being subjected to grueling tests and extreme conditions. The guys over at the Craftsman Lab are ready to make new videos and obliterate more tools, and are asking for viewers to offer tool-torture video suggestions of their own.

You can check out their videos over at Craftsman Labs, or Craftsman’s YouTube page. Once at the Craftsman Labs page, navigate to What’s Next to suggest a future video test.

Socket hockey? Vacuum bowling? Pushing a mannequin holding a cordless drill off of a seven-story building? Toolbox piñata? These tests aren’t exactly representative of the sort of extreme conditions tools may encounter in real life, but they’re nevertheless really fun to watch!

Here’s one of the more recent videos (and our favorite thus far), titled Craftsman Power Drill Daredevil Experiment, which features a cordless drill strapped to a bike-straddling mannequin that is pushed off of a building.
