what are some tools that were worth the price tag?

But only if you have a wife that does not think that clearing up is stacking everything on top of each other.

Min thinks that clearing up is piling everything out of sight in cupboards and drawers and forgetting where she's put it all.

Sadly I am alone now and I have no one to answer to. My wife did not draw the line an me repairing tools in the house , bless her.

When I was buying power tools I always tried to by them in cases. Easier to store and see at a glance what is missing out of the box. Same with sockets and spannerrs etc, always on rails or spanner clip racks.

In the past I used to do the same, but with the advent of tools that share the same battery platform it often becomes unnecessarily expensively.

Must give the other half credit for being similarly understanding.... to a point.

Yes , a lot of my power tools are corded , I have most of them paired , but not so many that I need loads of batteries. I don't have an impact driver , just my old trusty Makita drill driver.

Well I was lucky to have a half inch square drive socket set and used the T bar and when I heard the crack I knew that was the torque satisfied.

CK cable strippers for hand tools

Powertool wise as to be the multi tool. use it a lot. different blades for different purposes.

Really like the metabo wall chaser though, the 3 blade disc is brilliant and really makes chasing quick.

That was the link in the bar from Amazon. It's a corker.
