I guess to sum up my opinion. Go Craftsman or equivalent small roller and hand tools, and I. R. for the few air tools you'll need while at school. (they make the exact impact's etc. that the B3 sell)
If you still want to make a career out of it, buy some Big 3 tools at your school discount right before you graduate. The school will have all the specialty tools you'll need while there anyways.

That's the way I did it. Besides, you'll want those cheap tools as backups when your good shit breaks. Remember, one is none and two is one when you really need to depend on something.
