Needs new batteries.
Is it worth a punt?

You can pick up the LXT tackle for not much more tbh

I think I'll just get a new set.
For some reason I feel like I need an Impact driver even though I don't do much DIY 😂

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

Thanks for the update

But more seriously - I really want a planer! Was doing some oak recently and a good planer would have made life SOOO much better

Got a couple sealey modular cabinets and 2 metre work top for the grand total of 440! They were going for less as had some small defects, made an offer and had an ebay 5% deal, perfect timing, was going to buy some a few months back, would of paid a bit more if I went for it then.

The 7 drawer and middle cabinet, I already have 2 of the wall cabinets so will eventually get a third and have a complete setup.

Time to move out I think!!

Recently bought this kit when there was an offer on including a free radio and £50 cheaper than currently advertised. I'm very impressed with the quality of the kit and so far it's been perfect for DIY home renovations.

I really rate my Erbauer kit, the drill I have is the model up from the one in that kit but I can't see that you'd have any issues.

My dad has the Makita kit and you genuinely can't see a difference between the two. If anything the combi/hammer drill I have is better than the Makita

Obviously youve quoted regarding Makita.. with the Erbauer kit is showed all batteries are interchangeable and there are loads of tools that are available. Perfect kit / brand for a DIY man and I've no doubt they will last me a long time

 

[Usr117063]

Probably nothing in it for most of these brands. Pick the one you like the look of and crack on 😄

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

 

[rbeazer]

Anyone used the sgs compressors ?
My old 24 litre one is dead, but I'm trying to convince myself I need the 50 litre. I use it mostly with blow guns for detailing car interiors, blowing out switches and between seats etc.
But i just cant bring myself to spend the extra 40 quid to get the 50 litre. Someone help !!

You absolutely do need the 50 litre one

Just make sure you use the guard, take shallow cuts and dont put your hands above the blades. It's so easy to lose a finger with a planer/thicknesser. Scares me everytime I use mine, nearly as much as my spindle moulder does 🤣

Too late, already bought the sgs one. But they do have 30 days return policy. So they might be getting it back

My latest addition, M12 fuel bandsaw.

It seems to be a beast so far and saves getting a hot works permit on site..

These are a lot cheaper than I thought. I don't see how I'd be able to use it to it's full effect really as I don't need it for power tools.

They do cheaper silent ones too. Seem decent for the money

Has anyone got an M18 angle grinder? I need to buy a new one and I'm struggling to justify one, I have no other M18 tools just M12 or 240v, its like £50 for a nice Makita corded grinder or pretty much £200 for a Milwaukee with one battery......

I don't like the price and won't use it often enough to justify the difference however get put of loads of jobs when I've got to dig out an extension etcect. So the attraction of a good battery grinder is high.

I have both m18 angle grinders and I gotta say they are much much better than what I was expecting!

I use the small one with a flap disc and avoid doing intensive cuts then use the larger one for cutting as it has great power.

Think the smaller one is circa £100 and can pick up a battery for around £40 no? May be wrong!

Cheers Dann.

By small/large do you mean disk size? There are a couple of part numbers for the fuel 115mm puppy.

This your small one?

That's right and the larger one is 125mm and around £300 ish if I remember correctly.

Dont get confused like I nearly did as they also sell the 115mm body one with a 125mm disc on it.

The proper 125mm one has a bigger body
