Today I acquired...........

[Chillitt]

A lawnmower, a circular saw, a dustbin and a packet of biscuits (which I didnt even share.. Ooops...

 

[Kayos]

New bit holder and a pack of bits, proper impact rated ones, with a bit of luck they'll last a little longer than the nasty old ones I've been using. For what they cost, they wanna last a lot longer!

They feel like quality at least, the holder has a death grip on the bits.

I still smash them to bits, tried all makes and I've settled on Dewalt simply because a box of 20 can be had for under £5

You're not alone, under the outside staircase there's a small 'shed'. had a broken brick / dirt floor, cleaned it out to find limestone paving slabs

Not today but a few days ago i picked up a spare 1200 VW Beetle engine and a set of pipe chains made by spartan New York

 

[Nick DV]

Given this today, shall I keep it or sell it ?

One of those tools that I can't see a use for but as soon as I get rid of it I will no doubt need it. I have limited space though.

Keep it, you'll sell it and the next job you do will need it

Does everything you buy come from China?

 

[Kram]

No but most of the better things were. The hex keys are from a uk seller, who mostly sells carbide cutters, who I recommend www.ebay.co.uk/usr/duke94dog
His current listings have no bids but they usually end quite expensive. I have won a couple and they are good.

And a hermes

Hermes? Ours is quite good, same guy each time. Leaves everything on the step, rings the bell and runs away, but it is reliable(ly slow). For a cheap service, nothing has been lost, stolen or damaged.
They have improved and now give a delivery time window on the tracking.

I thought going on Hermes past incompetency it was damaged when I looked at it on my phone earlier
It looked like the tip of the chuck was flattened.
The old saying " assumption is the mother of all F### up's is still true

The amount of wastage in the rail industry is truly eye-watering .

If any rail users ever wonder why their tickets cost so much ....
