Hi Tom, it's on the "Xtra deals" link on the main page. Phil

It comes with 2x 1.7Ah Ni Cad batteries. Are they any good for holding the power etc?

Hi, could I please have any of your opinions on the twin pack that Screwfix have on at the moment for the Ryobi 18v drill and circular saw for £88.00. Seems a pretty good deal to me? Do any of you think its worth it and is Ryobi a decent make? Thanks.

Thanks for the replies lads, Looks as though youve saved me 90 quid. Anyone else got one of these Sheppach 2000S Tigers which Ironballs recommends, which is on sale at D&M tools for £100. Same questions really, any good, worth the money, and most importantly for me, easy set up and use? Phil

Yep, thats the one. I was thinking of one of those DMT double sided stones, however there quite expensive, some even more expensive than this. Doesn't look too bad does it for the price does it. Anyone else got any experience of these?

Sorry. Didn't know how to do the link to the Rutland site to view it!! Phil

Hi, Wondering if anyone can help. Got an e-mail today from Rutlands regarding this grinder they have on offer at the moment for £90.00 Has anyone got one?. All the obvious questions, is it any good, worth the money?, ease of use? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi, Mike, youre a star!! Never even gave that a thought as I'm sure the walls with them being bolted together with 2 foot wide panels, does very slightly bend from about zero to an inch and a half or so from end to end (18 foot). Ive used expanding foam a few times and know it sets quite...

Hi, my garage is a similar size and I'm going to insulate it early next year when it starts getting a bit warmer. What I was thinking of doing was glueing some Kingspan or something similar straight onto the wall then covering with some 9mm MDF or plywood. 2 questions though. 1) Would the...

Hi, could anyone give me some advice please. I have the Dewalt 625EK router and recently bought a router table for it, which is great, however what is a real pain is setting the depth of the cutter. I was looking to buy one of these height adjuster screw type things for it?, think these are...

Hi Wizer, unsure about the budget, I was hoping to get something half decent for around £300 as it wouldn't be used that often however theres a Fox thicknesser going at the moment £190 and seems pretty good value. If I went for that any idea how much an average bench top planer would cost? Phil

Hi, can anyone help. I'm thinking of buying a planer thicknesser, however I was thinking of a small combi machine but now starting to think possibly about 2 separate machines. Can anyone advise of the benefits or drawbacks of either? The only one I can think of is less space with a combi...

Hi, have you had a look Fox F22 564 planer thicknesser, it's capacity is slightly larger than the Woodstar PT85, it does 8x8 and is roughly the same price to the PT85 I'm thinking of buying this one myself or the Woodstar. Does anyone own the Fox F22 564 as a comparrason to the Woodstar? Thanks

Hi Neil, I think this is the same model you have. Can I ask, does it have dust extraction? Phil

Hi, can anyone help. I was thinking of buying one on the small combi planer thicknessers ie the small Fox one or the Woodstar PT85 however Ive just came back from my local B&Q where they have their Macallister 1500 watt thicknesser on sale for £99.00 and with the 15% offer they have on this...

Hi, I have decided to go for the router table, should arrive tomorrow. Thought for £90 quid it didn't seem to bad for the price because for what and how often I'll use it it's about the limit I would want to pay for one. I have the Dewalt 625EK which is what I'll be using but I hope it's not...

Hi, wonder if anyone could advise? Ive been looking at the Dakota router table whick is on offer at rutlands for £89.95 a) Is it worth it, does anyone have one b) In general would a router table be any use to the average DIYer, as what can it actually do that could can't do with the router...

Hi, Ive just ordered the Nilfisk Alto Attix 360 - 21 from D&M Tools and its on offer at the moment (£199.00) after reading the above review. Done a fair bit of research before buying and was just about to order the Trend. The Alto Attix is quieter than the Trend and better suction with the...

Hi Mike, Ive got the 1825 and its not bad, I think the higher the model number the better the spec. The built in stand is a nice feature. Ive got into the habit of measuring from the tip of the blade to the edge of the fence (where feesible) to ensure I get an even cut, but cuts quite decent...

Thanks for the replies lads. That looks a cracking price for the Draper at £299 compared to other places! Phil
