Ken's Deputy 4,459 Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Arrived today. Must say; I put it on my belt and I don't think it'll ever leave there now! It's not every day that I feel I want to mention a new tool. But, yeah; What a lovely piece of kit! This is the thing I asked @kanny about, when I spotted something looking like one in one of his shots. That was a knock off imitation, 'free gift' effort though. This is the real deal. And it just fukking Oozes class! Beauty is, I had another delivery, an hour later. Walked in here. Reached for my hip. " Flick! Shcllllitt! " Job done! I have a Lot of deliveries! This thing'll be So good to just have, right there. No weight. No bulk and a belt clip that ye just relax and forget about. I am one very happy bunny! 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Qbgrey 4,091 Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 Most stuffs made abroad or re badged as something else but Milwaukee will piss over that ryobi shit. Any person turns up to tradesmens job kitted out in ryobi would be laughed off the job Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kanny 20,589 Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 All half decent brands have some good stuff and some bad , I mix and match what's best performing not brand , festool is generally shite imo but their chop/mitre saw and rail/plunge saw are the bollocks , belt sander, router, impact driver, drills are makita, bosch Pro jigsaw and planer..... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
