Hi all, im thinking about buying the Armeg Box Sinker kit. I have read read a few threads stating that they are ok for new builds, but not great in existing (lived in properties) due to the amount of dust produced.

What I would like to know is, has anyone any experience with this item and have you used the Dust collector that comes with the kit. Does it work in reducing the dust to an acceptable level?

I look forward to all your informative responces

Box sinkers are only any good on breeze or similar. And personally I dont think they are much good then. We used to have 1 in van, couldn't even tell you if its still lurking in there. Never use it.
 
Hello M8
I have got one good for single sockets but not good for doubles as you have to drill 2 holes and dust goes all over except in the black oval catcher
 
I ve had mine years, the rotary cutter comes in handy but the rest of the kit is s**t, i can have the box cut out in less time than it takes me to get it out of the van.

Save your money for something worthwhile like a gas BBq from Asda at £75:D
