I'm working too hard and I'm tired!

Along with that I've had 1 bottle of real ale and intend to treat myself after completing my biggest ever job.. and getting paid!

What shall I buy?

Anything considered!!!!

I shall buy it tonight!

:smile5:
 
I have been thinking about the fein for a while Lee.. maybe!

I have the cordless makita multi tool though.. Is it much more powerful? The makita does take a while to get through it's task sometimes.
 
^^ 3 good suggestions already. What's your budget? I'm assuming you've already got a basic range of cordless tools???

The fein is a good bit of kit IMO,although I can't compare it to the Makita cordless multi tool as never used one.

Lets say a budget or ÂŁ150. But that doesn't mean it has to be up to that.. could be something simple like a good quality drill bit. I'm open to suggestion.

yes Marvo, I have all the usual drills, impact driver, circular saw, SDS, angle grinder etc.
 
laser level and tripod?
Torque screwdriver???
Cable trencher (one I want to buy but am too sensible to spend that much)

Edit: should also have said good work on completing the biggest job so far and getting paid!

Good lord Richard! I didn't even know there was such a thing as a cable trencher.. It's huge!

Yes, it was good to complete it, thanks. And it wasn't the cattery job.. thats still ongoing.. bit by bit :smile5:

Just had an idea! What about some sort of camera.. I cant quite think of the proper name.. one that I can poke into a hole and see into cavities? Not essential, but there have been times when I've really wanted to know whats just around the corner!
