I only use Craftsman or Snap-on, and I still occasionally break a socket or wrench.
Never really been a fan of Husky though because their handles and such live up to the name.
Air tools I use Ingersol-Rand usually.

ive got metric and standard but dont really use the standard for much except the 1/2 inch socket for removing my battery cable ever time i do nething to the car, and around the house (been working on my cooler alot unfortunately). then i use that 10,12 and 13 mm socket for everything, seems like over half the bolts on the car are that size, i think ive got like 10 of each cuz i always misplace them and find them later.

Primarily Husky, with a mix of other name brands (craftsman, channel lock)and a bunch of no-name chinese and taiwanese stuff. Whatever works I use. No Snap-on tools here.

Mostly Craftsman, but also Matco, Snap on, & Cornwell. IR for air tools.
Makita high-speed buffer is my favorite "tool"
The good thing about Snap-on, Matco, Cornwell, & Mac is that they come to my shop once a week!

i have mostly craftsman (i got them when my grandfather died) of my own but all my sockets are husky. i like huskys stuff cause they offer the same warrenty as craftsman and are half the price, not to mention i hvaent broke a single one if their tools yet. i also have a snap on 1/2" drive torque wrench

craftsman, is mostly what hand tools i have. i just picked up a nice tool kit made by crescent, good quality and unconditional lifetime warranty. i have all black and decker cordless drills, driver, sander, saws and such. i just bought a 1" drive ratchet and sockets last weekend (havent used them yet). i got too many tools to list. i have a toolbox, that my dad gave me that is full of mismatched sockets and adapters, that he didnt need anymore.
