Looking for a tool set

[Millwalljoe]

Hey I'm at college doing electrical instillation level 1 and I'm loving it
I'm hoping to get a £150 grant and would like to spend it on tools to get me started as I'm looking for a apprentaship/side job
Iv been looking at a ck tools hand tools set for about £160 looks good would you have any recommendations I'm only looking for hand tools as I already have a hammer drill/SDS drill 18v combi drill and a impact driver (my dads haha)
Thank you very much in advance

ll have a look through my tools (ones no longer required) they may be second hand but serviceable, don't know what I have at present because my garage is in uproar due to it being used as a store.

If you do buy new something like this kit would be a good start

Cheapest CK 595003 professional electricians tool kit and Case - Edwardes

Then you can add to it

That is exactly what I was looking at just wondering if other brands did a similar sort of set as haven't seen any

I personally like bacco tools but price for starters CEF DO a starters pack with a bag plus you basic tools for I believe £100 not positive on the price. But perfectly designed for apprentice.
Hope this helps
