Drop me a message this weekend and I'll get you one. They're insanely bright though. If you're into detailing they'll be ideal.

If anyone has a costco card, these are ~16 quid in store and amazing. Clicky They're unbelievably bright and amazing for showing up defects.

🤣🤣 That's the grown up equivalent of knocking on your mates door when you got a new football as a kid.

There's something about matching boxes for tools that just tickles me in a strange way.

Not much of a challenge is it. Can't you pick a smaller target for higher points.

Just install the app mate, you'll be getting bummed in no time.

Don't say this, I was saying to @Louis the other day I'm toying with going Hilti just to add some spice to this thread 😅

I'd not get the kit Kyle linked, it's not the LXT range so you'll be limited on other tools.

You do. Any task is so much easier being able to drill hole, put in screw without f**king about.

£150-200 should get you something decent that will do most home tasks. Go for any of the big brands with interchangeable batteries though so you can expand in the future if you want to.

Got fed up of not having DAB in the shed so bought this. Game changer. DAB & Bluetooth!

Not a power tool, but will get any tool pervert a bit moist. Just bought these, been toying with Hilti for a while so when I saw they did a set I couldn't resist. Currently have zero holes to drill, but when I do! Oooft, I can't wait.

Thanks all for the suggestions, so I've been mulling it over more and been to Halfords and Machine Mart today. Halfords don't really have anything and the Clarke stuff in machine mart just doesn't seem much for the money so discounted both. Spoke to someone at SGS yesterday who insisted...

FFS Dan. Just about to order this and thought I'd check here for any comments. Back to the drawer board (see what I did there)

Thanks all. Good shout, just had a look at the sealey stuff but they don't seem to have anything around that size and budget. Typically either cheap stuff or a bit too rich / small. I don't mind spending a bit, but there's always someone who comes along suggesting financing a £5k snap-on box...

I'm after some half decent garage drawers to keep bits and pieces in. Does anyone have any they recommend? As it stands it's a toss up between these; SGS US Pro No strap on please, I'm not made of money. Cheers

It will be because of the pressure exerted on itself. To expand inwards requires it to press against itself, whilst to expand outwards will allow it to move into free space.

It's not my fault you can't figure which of your 6 fingers to push it through with.

Bought these crimpers off ebay. Definitely the best on the site. Not bad for 60 quid 🤣. First things first put a bit of tube in and pressed a hex onto it. They might actually have some use knowing they can do this.

Dormer. Edit, don't ask me why, but my mate bought me this set a few years ago for helping him with something. No idea why he went so overkill but it's seen me very well for a few years now. Most expensive drill bit set known to man

Well if you decide to punt your other on let me know. I've not got a mill....

I'll bite. Wait until you come to pick your crimper up, you'll see makita and poor don't always need to go hand in hand..... They just do with me lol.

Bought big boy. Should be here Thursday.

Does anyone in Leeds want one of these? They're a tenner cheaper if you buy two together..... 😂

Ooooh price? Not got one of these..

I have that ratchet and it's spot on. The Clarke stuff isn't bad really for the money. Starting out I'd be tempted by this Link

Plasma cutter 🤣 Joking aside, air gun, spray gun, tyre inflator are all good shouts. I have a few Clarke bits from machine mart and TBF they work just fine. Air ratchet is a good shout though if you don't have one.

Agreed. I think Makita have a better all round range with their garden stuff and mix of DIY and Mechanics tools but the feel of other tools seems better. I prefer Dewalts general build quality and some of the Milwaukee mechanics stuff is miles ahead of where Makita are.

Sadly not, but the guy is very well off and appears to just do some building to keep boredom at bay. Sent his wife to pick some steel up in a Porsche Cayenne 😂

One of the builders I deal with has a place in the states so gets loads of Milwaukee stuff. Showed me inside his van the other day and it'd have some of you chap's f**king creaming. All Milwaukee tools, all less than 2 years old and all in the pack out cases. Looked impressive.
