CheersIan Yeah I remember they cost me £60 over 10 years ago then stopped twirling spanners for a pen pushing role before I got to use them. Don't start buying again !I am afraid the quality is not what it was I am afraid.Another valued name and reputation bought and changed by cheapening manufacturing processes.Such a shame.CheersIan Quote

Ian Frog Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 10mm socket Nice !Probably more convenient than my air set up !I have occasionally used my Makita impact driver with a socket adaptor when I have had multiple bolts of the same size.Usually when I am feeling lazy lol.CheersIan Quote
Bender Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 It's a tad big for delicate stuff, I used it for knocking up a base for decking. Quote

Ian Frog Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 I like the way we own up to willy waving lol.Symptomatic of us guys with tools, toys or anything else we get fascinated by.Oh by the way I believe the girls do it too but I suspect they have a more subtle title for it and it probably involves things like horses, clothes as well as the stuff we are into.Takes cover swiftly !!!!!!CheersIan Quote
