that does sound lengthy for a small battery to charge, not an issue I was aware of. I personally have no powerstack batteries, I had assumed by now they would be a bit more affordable, from the adverts (admitedly not the most reliable source always) they seems to offer more power and longevity...

this deal on screwfix caught my eye, 90nm drill, 3 of the new 1.7ah powerstack batteries (if you get the extra promotional one) , charger, mclaren limited edition (bit so what, but some may like it) £230 DeWalt McLaren F1 Team DCD85ME2GT-GB 18V 2 x 1.7Ah Li-Ion PowerStack Brushless Cordless XR...

I may be missing something here but it looks like the tilt of the roof will channel all the rain down the back where it will be up against a fence and never dry out?

the first drill is 65nm and also metal gearing according to the listing I don't know in real terms how much difference 5nm makes?

thats a valid point, particuarly as brands are bought and sold so often, but frustrating as longevity is such an indicator of quality.

I've found the opposite, I often use a Makita 12v impact driver which has a tiny 1.5Ah battery so the whole thing is super lightweight, and pretty small, when your working overhead for any length of time the reduced weight is a godsend. I have to say the drill that is the other half of the 12v...

in my ignorance I never knew black and decker did hand tools, I think I'm right in saying it is all power tools now??

similar (I think?) at yandles currently half price £5 for 10 https://www.yandles.co.uk/mirka-sanding-pad-soft-foam-sponge-double-sided-220g-pack-of-10/p29870

I notice the plasma cutters are now the parkside proffessional range, and no longer run on the standard domestic power supply, which makes them even stranger than ever to find in a supermarket

as per Clogs above, more info needed on the wall type, perhaps a photo? but my first thought would be to remove any loose dust and debris then fill the hole with milliput, cure, redrill and new wall plug

I agree with bingyman, best to make as much adjustment as possible to the plumbing

I agree, a cheapo tool wont last long, I've not had one before and my thinking was if I use it a lot and it breaks I'll get a more expensive one next time. It won't be used a lot on metal, which might help the lifespan a bit

I picked up an automatic centre punch today from lidl, it came with a couple of spare spikes / pins / heads, I assumed at first that they were different sizes, but they seem identical, just replacements, so my question is how long would these pins normally last, do they blunt / buckle relatively...

depending on your need this sort of mobile dispenser is good https://www.amazon.co.uk/WypAll-6221-Reach-Dispenser/dp/B085CR577F

seems odd that they have the three different orientations (left, right, middle zero point), useful, but very easy to pick up the wrong one in store (my store I feel lucky if I can find one item, let alone a choice of three) Personally I'd like a bunch of small stick on rulers for screws and...

As others (all?) have said MDF will never be waterproof, that said, you could seal any cut edges with several layers of exterior gloss, varnish etc which will slightly slow down the inevitable, I'd use whatever I could find or scrounge, it just isn't worth spending money on this stuff, use it up...

as setch alluded to above, I'd go for a pva joint, but leave a couple of patches clear for some dabs of superglue, spray activator on the other half, put together and hold firm for a matter of seconds (though I tend to hold for closer to a minute), the superglue will clamp it together while the...

evolution run slower than standard as they are designed for multimaterial use, so you may struggle getting the cleanest of cuts. I have a evolution circular saw and a basic mitre saw, I wouldn't knock them for the price, but they are not fine woodwork tools, I'm never 100% confident of the...

They are lidl next week for £30, has any got one, if so what is your impression please

I agree with this, water will get in, and filling just makes it harder to get back out
