Mine arrived too.
Keyless chuck...nice.
Drill sets....nice.
Torsion bit set.... nice.
Cable ties.... fine.
Diamond coated burr set... probably crap but was £3, will come in handy for something.
File set...good for the house toolbox with the exception of this rusty banana...

Thanks for the heads up on this - I placed two orders on the 25th and they were delivered today, Monday. A couple of drill chucks, set of imperial ratchet spanners (for the tractor) and a few other bits and pieces, all of which will be useful. Some of the prices were very good, but if you don’t need the gear it ceases to be a bargain at any price in my book, so I just ordered bits that would get used.
I must admit that I thought Kennedy brand was from the US, but apparently not from what I can see from the packaging - it seems reasonable quality but time will tell I guess.

Mine arrived today - I wasn't super impressed with the supra chuck if I'm honest, pretty sure the picture on their site shows a Rhom one and this aint that - just a generic keyless.
But for the £9 I paid it seems pretty OK - looks to be this one but with a JT6 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Capacity-Tighten-Keyless-MT2-JT3-Machines/dp/B07W818SBM/
The rest of the order was pretty good, also picked up some Kennedy Impact sockets which seem stout and well made.
Edit just to say I've found it on Banggood - seems to have pretty decent reviews.

The chuck is very similar to the one on Amazon although a different Jacobs Taper, that one is JT3 the one I got is JT6.
I have not done a lot of testing but so far it seems nice and grips well even on hard shank drills. Also it is 1-16 (like the Amazon) rather than 3-16 as stated on Cromwells site, in fact it seems to close right up so I think even smaller than 1mm could be gripped. Almost tempted to get another
Edit, just noticed you mentioned the JT6

My stuff arrived today - drill set looks excellent for the money (£5.99), though I guess time will tell how they perform.
I got a Kennedy open end spanner set for £3.99 which looks ok for a set for general use, a scriber with scraper end for £1.55 and the de burring tool for £9 looks as good as noga ones I’ve used in the past - it was a bit cheaper on zoro but took me over the free postage.

Mine's sort of arrived. Delivery man didn't leave it with a neighbour so I've got to go and get it. Pity the card doesn't give any information as to where the devil it is, just my name on the card and to collect it! Their idea of a festive guessing game no doubt. I'll report back. Wetting myself in anticipation

All my stuff (zoro as well) turned up today. Was actually quite impressed with the keyless chuck. Got two of them with appropriate shanks one for the L5 one for the drill press.
The chuck weighs a lot more that my equivalent Jacobs and seems really well made - and at last a chuck on an MT3 so no more faffing about with adaptors
Cheers,
MM

I remembered that The Cleveland Twist Drill Company had a factory/works in Peterhead back in the 1960s - 1970s - long gone now, of course.
I Can't remember what I ordered...lol
