Norbar stuff is spot on, how long until you drop it and it's out of whack? 😂

Never im good and carful with my tools and equipment 🙄🙄
Lorrys are fine dumpers are a c**t 12 per wheel instead of 10 and can be an awkward height. Balast block bolts on diggers usually end up with me going flat on my arse at least once

@dann2707 @Yorkshire Pudding as our resident red bummers, I left my dewalt drill and impact in the U.K.
I need a new set for here in Germany, will have a lot of furniture to build etc. and I’m simply not game for hand tools. Seems a good time to try red..
What would you deviants recommend?

Needed a knife for parcel opening duties and to be kept inside so took the opportunity to get the latest milwankawolfee fastback.
Comes with a bottle opener and bit driver. It's a bit slimmer than the older gen. Feels nice.

They are also called Swedish pipe wrenches and look like the best mole grips ever made.

So having borrowed a tool for removing track rods several times I'd rather just buy one now.
This is the time I've used before and really like
Draper 27818 Track Rod Removal Tool, 28mm-35mm Capacity, 400mm Length https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00BWRJ5GK/?tag=cliospnet01-21
but also saw this for less and has a bigger range
DAYUAN 7pc Universal Inner Tie Rod End Installer Remover Tool Set Adjuster Cars 1/2" https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07SM5L6MF/?tag=cliospnet01-21
Anyone got any experience of them?

Ive got a ching spec copy of the draper one, cost £20ish years ago off ebay. Used loads of times its never let me down, makes light work of getting them off.
Id say 99% of the time the cheaper draper, us pro etc are just branded cheap tools, so worth buying the cheapest unbranded for a one off, as quality is the same.

I have one of the el'cheapo ones and it worked great. Often with these things they mostly come from China, the more expensive ones are just rebranded Chinese stuff.

Ive got this: Sealey TBTP10 Brake Service Kit Tool Chest Tray Wind Back Piston Spreader 42 Pc 5051747925137 | eBay
A lot of kit for the cash
I've got a lot of those trays they do, great value for what you get and not had any problems with the quality.

one of the lads at my old work had a sealey box with all the sealey tools and they seemed pretty good, the rep was in once a week too and just swapped anything that was broken

Big fan of us pro stuff. Nice and cheap just like me 😂
Got these as there's a few times where I thought an e torx spanner would be a lot nicer to use that on a ratchet.
Also needed some extended Allen keys other day working on the Beemer so this will help too

Us pro stuff is sound for occasional use. Ive just bought the stubby flexi head ratchet spanner set, and the quality is alright, as good as all the other cheaper ones, sealey etc.
Most of the time its not the brand of tool thats the issue, its how you actually use it.

Really love the little thor hammer that I got a couple of years ago. So thought I'd get 2 levels up.
Proper nice size, glad I went for this one.
If anyone's in need of a hammer, get one of these sexy mother f*****s. The size 1 is my go to for "slight alterations but not quite Michael Jackson levels of reconstruction"

What's the big one for?
Are we talking Bruce Jenner or that swimmer that was a man but now isn't a man but is technically a man but doesn't have a c**k but doesn't have tits?
