Rods

[telectrix]

i've got a super rod set, cost about £60, and a cheapo £12 set. use the cheapos for rough work where they may get broke/lost. only use the super rods for when there's no chance of damage.

TLC Direct rods are cheap and relatively robust... i find them very good

Took me a while to persuade my boss to change to ross but now he has he loves them! Easier than the old mt1 lid he used to use!

I like my blue skinny cheapish ones that I bought from screwfix about 5 years ago.
The super rod ones are too fat at the connection points for me.

I bought another set last week, I never noticed before that they are made by super rod.

i would keep that bit of MT1 lid, as it will come in useful when you get a job where you don't want to dirty your rods.

Super rods are the dogs danglies, however abit pricey. The set i got from aldi on the other hand...... are awesome and cheap, could price a set into every job i do haha.

The cheap blue ones from screwfix have just caused me too much pain, constant fibre glass splinters that are nigh on impossible to get out of your skin because they just snap and fray. Although if you get some really sharp cutters you can actually cut the ends off and reglue them on if they get damaged (so i've been told)
