I've lost the bugger now but we did have some good times Together
I guy I worked with once had a bicycle inner tube cut into a 15mm long section then slit down the middle and tuned into a flat piece of rubber.
Sort of like a rectangular piece of rubber.
He kept four cable ties with it and said he always kept it handy just in case he cut through a water pipe with his circular saw whilst taking floor boards up.
The idea was to wrap the piece of rubber around the damaged pipe then secure with the cable ties to stop the leak.
He said it would save him for just long enough before a plumber arrived.
It doesn't quite fit into the category of handy tool but I think it is close enough.
I never did see it in action.
Blade runner for SWA, time saver and you can get into smaller spaces then you can with the hacksaw
why not just use the hacksaw blade in hand to strip it.
if the blade is too big, cut it smaller
A couple of not so useful tools.... bush spanners that don't fit the brass bushes any more now that they are making them using less material, grrr!
nice bit of kit is the fein...could have got one as well for 20 quid the other week...but it was 230VFein multi-master the neatest way to take up floorboards, notch out for trunking. A decent set of cable rods, not as gd as trunking lid but works out cheaper in the long run. SDS scutch chisel, Henry hover my best friend and the customers
