I admit, I have a workshop tool addiction :-)

What’s it like? A weapon I’d imagine

 

[JuhaL]

Only done some test cuttings, with couple 4Ah batteries. Feels bit strange to handle..
Frame isnt much bigger vs. 125 machine and also looks like smaller grider with oversize disc on. (But u dont have to take guard off.. )
Its quite well on balance, easy to handle with one hand if u compare to 240 volt machine.

no more than Phils strimmer at that price youd have to wonder what price it was the day it left the factory .......
if your looking for something to fill a hole, or your not too fussy about a toolbox then its hard to say its not value at that price.
personally i wouldnt touch it with a ten foot barge pole but they say im a bit posh when it comes to tools so go figure.
if you want a good sturdy roller chest then have a look at the Beta cabinets, in fairness to them its a damn good toolbox but before you go looking, your £80 quid isnt going to go far on one mind.
buy cheap and buy twice imo.
thats just my own opinion but i make a living out of my toolboxes so for hobby use it may do you the best.

Buy once, cry once eh.

Not that I would know anything about that!

Aaaraggh! ! !
A pile o stacked high shite, the only thing worse than the product is the customer service.
Please dont ask me how I know.
But I concluded any future Lidl purchases would be restricted to bottled water and baps.

Does anyone in the south east want a cheap ironworker? It's too far for me, but seems to be stuck at only £842

i got the non hammer version with recip saw and multi tool heads, 3 year warranty, same price great bit of gear for casual use.
i got the hedge trimmer[well recommend this] too with same battery, and a chainsaw is on its way soon.
the strimmer is absolute shite though. ryobi has done me well for years, but gradually changing over now

 

[Gerbert]

Hadn't even noticed but the grinder has the 4 amp battery. Really like the hammerdrill as well. Should be really handy for mounting pvc pipes for electricity.

 

[tomlad]

A mate mentioned the 4 amp on from Sunday i think
Mine are 2ah on grinder

 

[colhonk]

Anyone bought the Milwauke 12v soldering iron yet?

 

[Gerbert]

There ya goe!

 

[colhonk]

Yep, have actually watched that clip,even He had some reasonable coments on it,till he bugg***d it. From yankee land they are £ 50 odd, from here £100`s.

 

[davieh3350]

first job with the new read out.
Made a new coolant tank and replaced the old pump with a central heating system pump same as the lathe, 3 speed motor is great on it, you can blast the chips well away or just let it trickle out ...and the floor is still dry! Moved the on off switch to a better spot too.

 

[joe soapy]

There ya goe!

got a gas one £14 in aldi, good bit of kit, self lighting and all

I picked one of those up as well. It’s a nice little kit to keep in the truck.

Having had a gas iron turn to shrapnel in my hand I am wary of even using a good brand one let alone a £14 one. I was fortunate that I had a rigger glove on otherwise my hand would have been badly lacerated instead of just badly bruised.

Blimey, that sounds bad!

Makes you think.....but I don’t think I’d be without my Dremel gas torch, brilliant for soldering and heat shrinking

 

[joe soapy]

any tool over £20 i dont need now that i have learnt to be patient
