Recommendations for a wall chaser and other tools for rewire.

That'll help cut your tax liability for October. Next up, Metabo extractor ?

I've just bought the nilfisk 26-21 so no way can I justify another extractor.... yet.?

Ive not read all the replies so may be repeating someone else here, my chasing kit consists of a Hitachi twin blade chaser for the errr chases , a Small 6” bosch Angle grinder with the dust collector attachment for cutting in the boxes, a pair of Armeg Chasing chisels one wide for boxes and one narrow for chases. A bosch 110v drill with hammer Action only for use of. A henry hoover with quick release attachments for each machine. I’ve also got an Armeg box cutter doobry,that doesn't get too much use because its far too aggressive and tends to smash the bricks to bits meaning fixings become difficult. For dot and dab/plasterboard work a multitool is essential. A decent set of hole saws for Downlighters Go for a decent make (Starrett or Bosch) is a worthwhile purchase as well as a flat bit set or a set of augers . Oh and a set of superrods comes in handy.
Oh and I have a clarke dust extraction system when I need to get the dust out of the house quickly if its an occupied house .

I have the Metabo MFE30. Absolutely brilliant. Bash the middle out with sds chisel. Nice neat quick chase.

The Metabo MFE40 has now replaced it and looks epic. The triple blade removes all the wall material for you so no need to bash out. Tempted to get one but would like to hear from someone who has used one.

i have the new metabo coupled up with dust extra is the nuts
allso got a makita on which is queit good

Any feedback on this so far?

I'm out in Taiwan until the middle of November!

I cna let you know then, sorry.

I contacted metabo and they said that theirs won't fit the mfe30, I've bought this one with it being a different manufacturer, hopefully it fits and works. (my thinking was why would metabo do one that directly fits an older model as noone would by the newer one) ??
