Power Tool Perverts

[MLB]

It's got a couple of different accessories, I think you'd be able to blow out most dust but it's not as powerful as proper compressed air or a can of air.

 

[YorkshireKyle]

I'd get a small airbrushing compressor for PC stuff @Pistachio. They work perfect and don't take up much room either

 

[Pistachio]

Yeah I've been looking at this. Just thought the makita would do two jobs

Anyone after one of the Milwaukee ratchets, just hold fire as there's a new one due out next month or so.

Basically the same but 450rpm up from 250rpm.

No news on a high speed extended version yet.

 

[MLB]

Might get some good deals on the old ones then as well or is the higher rpm worth it?

Oh. Well that's good timing, in another window I have that page open! Happy to take a deal on an older one tbh

I wouldn't say I'd upgrade from the current one, but if I was after a new one I'd definitely consider waiting for the faster one.

 

[MLB]

Cool, thanks for the heads-up!

 

[YorkshireKyle]

Pretty much

 

[Archtronics]

Figured I’d pass this on been speaking to a tool supplier today and they’ve told me if your planning on ordering anything and there isn’t stock in the UK it’s a 4 week wait to get stuff in from the EU.
So if you need something desperate it’s worth bearing that in mind.

 

[YorkshireKyle]

I'm moist, very. very moist

 

[JamesBryan]

Some setup that!

Shes a keeper

If she'd have bought you anything but red stuff then she should get in a canal

 

[Archtronics]

Not a power tool per say but got my grandads old log splitter back into action today.

 

[YorkshireKyle]

Proper tackle!!

Also, do you rent that b*****d? It would save a lot of time splitting logs at my grandads

Brick? So she bought you a drill and an impact driver? Man she must be thick

Is that a moggy behind?

What? I didn't have an impact driver so what’s the problem?

 

[Archtronics]

Yup, it’s being restored by my uncle about as fast as I’m doing the Clio.

I think he’s suggesting she should have bought you an SDS..

 

[iimushroomzii]

She's done good, an impact and combi are far more useful than just an SDS. Especially only drilling brick, combi will fly through with a bosch multipurpose bit.

 

[JamesBryan]

It's got a hammer mode too which will drill brick relatively easy with the right drill bit.

Wouldn't recommend it for trying to go through a full cavity like

Sorry I mis read that as you were looking for something to drill specifically brick.

Apologise for calling his Mrs Thick as well

I'd be over the moon if my Mrs had treated me to that set. (it's similar to the set I have but my impact isn't brushless)

I always reach for my SDS when building flat pack furniture. Perfect for the job

Chisel mode really gets the dowels in good.

Speaking of which, I very nearly bought an M12 SDS but they don't have chisel mode

I completely agree with you.. I was just pointing out what I thought he meant by his post about brick..

[YorkshireKyle]

For anyone that has an M18 Milwaukee drill make sure you regularly lube your chuck... I didnt and this is what I had to do

To top it all off I ordered a 1/2" chuck instead of a 3/8"

 

[DrR]

Did you leave it in the fuly closed Chuck position?

 

[YorkshireKyle]

Nah I managed to loosen it but then I squashed it cos its made of cheese. Then it wouldn't hammer anymore Had to bring out old faithful the other day ffs

 

[Twingo 1??]

This stuff gets a abused and used in all weather's outside. Only fault as Mr Yorkshire Pudding has found out the chucks are shite!

 

[YorkshireKyle]

Aye speaking to @JamesBryan and he had the same issue, I thought I'd ruined it
