It’s the flux capacitor that stops impulse buying of tools

I thought everyone knew that ?

Mine must be completely broken

Don’t worry, I haven’t even got one

Do you have to swallow 1 or 2 to resist buying a new tool? Parallel or series?

Today I aquired a bit of space, got the trolley jack out and cut up a dead 7.5 ton truck.

Wombled liberated a few bits off the chassis.

Once you’ve a decent amount of batteries you can just buy naked tools so it’s not too bad, price wise.

I toyed with the ratchet or the 90 degree impact which I got. It’s a kind of hybrid between impact and ratchet.

Hasn’t got as much clearance as a ratchet but will undo 300nm. That is more important for me. It’s good where you can’t turn a spanner. If I was in car engine bays all day I would have gone for the ratchet over this. I work on plant, marine and HGVs so it’s not usually a bad access really, just done up tight.

I wanted one because I’ve got issues with my muscles etc where a day spannering constantly makes for a painful few days after. This is a great help.

Yep agreed, my boss uses all m18/m12 gear and works well. Has both the 90impact and the ratchet.
And do agree the impact is great but most the stuff I'm doing now is motorcycles and dont feel the need for angle impact on that where the ratchet for fairings is far more controllable.

I will be keeping eyes out for naked bodies only but these worked out a sensible deal.
And now can clear out the rest of my "other" tools.
