A free panini and cup of tea!

The site canteen had tripped out on overload, I got the power back on and the lady said thanks it's on me
She actually calculated the current draw on her hot plates etc before I knew what she was doing!
Her dad is an electrician! I was very impressed!
I've recommended a new circuit is installed to take the load off the rest of the site eating area ring.

Love it I had a 180 degree experience .
I did the loading & cable calculations for an Italian pizza kitchen , added 120% extra to allow for extra kit in the future. They'd supplied me with the data sheets for everything they were having fitted , a few months after commissioning I get called out everything is tripping the breakers . They'd only got someone else in and changed almost every bit of kit for bigger more power hungry stuff without up rating the incoming three phase.

Not used it yet, feels great in the hand, very good reviews, FFX next day delivered for £33 thought that was pretty good.

Ooh they are very nice to use! My brother has the same as you, I have its smaller sibling, the hand axe. They are incredibly sharp and hold an edge lovely!

I still tend to be a bit overly protective of my gear, but nowadays I also realise that it's practically criminal not to use something for its intended purpose.
