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

I have not even had a chance to look at it to closely, but the teeth are wicked sharp.

It's more in the handle that you want to take care. Very good saw though, Tyzack always good steel

Not today but I acquired the 45 minute charger and two batteries for this Worx drill in the skip at work! Our maintenance threw thewm away as the drill was damaged beyond repair!

The batteries were almost fully cahrged and only needed a few minutes to top them up!, I eventually found the drill on fleabay with no batteries or charger and paid £20 for it!

It's the best battery drill i've ever had and holds charge literally for years as when I found them I stuck them in my cupboard then had a year off work for a knee repalcement( Waited six months for the op!) andthen I went in to a differenmt department, Another year went by and I found them in my old cupboard when I went to see the lads!! Only anothe ten min's were needed to charge them fully!!!

I also got a case for it off fleabay too!!

Best way. Loves his tools does my 2 1/2 yo. Stuck some goggles on him yesterday and let him loose on the lathe cab with the dremel. Kept him busy and grinning. Swiped my (full size) crowbar last week and levered a board off the shed. :O

I can remember helping my dad fix his Triumph Herald (every weekend ) from an early age although not as young as 2 1/2

That conjours up an image I have of my Dad fixing something on the engine of his Herald [Estate] - bonnet hinged forward and he was sitting on the front wheel with his legs and feet in the engine bay - repairs in comfort the order of the day......

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

He's my shadow when I'm at home. Especially if im on the tools. Dare not give him a drill again. He roams around looking for screws to undo. (Read chew the heads up)

[gavcarter]

That's a canny little haul there!

 

[slim_boy_fat]

It's always a little bit sad when an old chap [hark at me....] disposes of his treasured tools, but at least they're going to a good home.

FS44 are a nice machine, I have a few brushcutters and line trimmers and have never had an issue with the 44....but the harnesses are a little poop, Have you had it running as they can be a stinker if they have had straight fuel in
