    How prices have changed!

    Mid noughties to 2012 ish was a sweet spot for machinery purchases I think. Imports were cheaper and also the costs of production was lower than it had been. On the other side of the equation - top top quality cordless powertools have never been cheaper. Milwaukee fuel (brushless) stuff online...

    Iforce Marketzone

    I was looking for a new SDS drill. Found out about Iforce MARKETZONE whereby they tend to send out returned power tools with not much wrong with them. Managed to get a good deal on a Makita SDS drill with a good £55 off the next cheapest one. Bought it "as new" rather than new. Bit of a...

    DAB Site Radio

    I've got a load of cordless gear which is Milwaukee and very excellent it is too (and cheap from Powertoolmate). The only thing I fancy of late which seems way overpriced is their DAB radio and I figure I can get a Makita DAB 104 with a battery and charger for only a small amount more than just...

Need another one now and just checking if there are other alternatives to howdens...

    Stair paint. Alternatives to gloss. Any tips?

    Eggshell is basically satinwood. Its fine but as tough as gloss. Trade shop mixed dulux eggshell would be pretty decent
