Ordered myself some new toys today

If it’s secure around your manhood you’ve got it on backwards! Just saying!

Some of us can wear them and still be secure about our manhood.

Hi - hope its open mic night here and not limited to battery powered? This week saw me move into high fashion with my new Veto manbag.

Good God the world's gone mad, I can see where the name tool tart comes from now.

Blimey, that's a small one.

Oooooh look at you with your fancy man bag I like them but for me the cost is too much to justify

 

[Andy78]

Go on then @Wilko , how much was it ?
Interested as to what you got it for too. Lots of small reactive jobs ?

So far this year I have lost 2 pairs of brand new cutters, a couple of screwdrivers and a tape measure.
Add on to that the amount of lost time going back and forth to my main toolbag and all of a sudden it's looking fairly cheap.

Hilti not to expensive if you sign up to they lease scheme, quite reasonable really, but my dewalt gear has faired a lot better than my mates hilti especially the batteries and I also butcher wood with mine...

Hi - not saying it's really worth it - £70. I wanted something so I didn't have to carry the tote, as I'm working through rib injury. Don't ask

Sensible move then and well worth the money. Those ribs and intercostals can take a while to sort themselves.

You also have a wife with a sharp elbow.........

Always remember my tutor telling us don’t go spending fortunes on side cutters and screwdrivers because I promise you you will lose em or leave em in lofts.....

Count them in and count them out . The pleasure of having good functioning tools is better than putting up with struggling with inferior rubbish to save a few bob.

That is why I was thinking of the wee bag for hand tools.

To make it obvious when I've left something at my backside

Is this the wee bag you’re looking for - where’ll you fit your hammer?

Once you've felt quality -you learn not to loose them !
(or at least a few favorites)

I think both hilti and Milwaukee are overpriced for what they are
Makita are excellent but I’ve always felt them to be lacking either in weight or performance Bosch and dewalt on the other hand I’ve always used and never had a problem with apart from the last combi drill self destructing just over a year later when I was an apprentice I got a full dewalt XRP kit with the circ saw jig saw recip saw torch and drill still have them to this day the batteries unfortunately let them down far too quickly. I’m looking into adaptors at the moment to allow the old gear to run on new batteries

Have u considered replacing the battery cells you can get them online and I find it’s a great option

 

[Rpa07]

To be honest - it’s been a while since you’ve used them! ;-)))
