"so dont have anything in mind atm" - what's wrong with you man? It's in our genes - it's,it's, it's like women and shoes!

My tape has given up the ghost and won't retract back the last 9 1/2 inches - there's only so many jokes you can take before you slap someone!

Yep. I have a permanent list of possible tools to buy when the job justifies it, or there's an offer that's just too good to miss, or I just feel the need.

I feel the need. The need for ... tools!
OK, doesn't rhyme.

It's only money that stops you - does make it more special when you get what you want at a bargain price though. Went into the Arco 3 day 30% off sale on the first day and bought £90 worth of stuff for £38 and that was including a pair of Draper expert side cutters for £7.80 less 30% + vat. 160mm which is a size I don't have but now I do. Dangerous

I bought a new tool today with this week's mad money. It's on special and I have had it out for a run and it's pleasingly fast

I have one of these and although I don't find it faster than a hacksaw, I do find it neat and consistent.

Yes you reminded me of this thread when you mentioned it - where's your happy snap then

 

[Specialist]

Honestly mate, I can't remember how to add a picture to the thread. Don't know if I've ever done that.

Ah - no worries
If you can get a pic onto the PC / iPad / phone you use for access, just hit the "Upload a File" button at the bottom of your new post. Then it should get you to browse on your PC etc and find the right pic, click on it and you're away.

Cheers buddy will give it a go in a bit & see what happens.

New tool bag.
Bit blurred due to hand shake

Thanks Wilko

Plenty of storage in new bag: but not happy that internals are so floppy, no internal stiffening at all .

If it's stiffness you need, then Veto Pro Pac is the way to go.

Thanks buddy, but Unfortunately I'm stuck with this for a while, it was a present from the missus so can't really chuck it or say too much.
Don't get me wrong, the bag does it's job. But I'd have preferred the tops of the tool section to be upright rather than flop around.
