Ezarc blades did very well in nail tests I’ve seen. I used a fein e cut carbide pro to do the same job as you recently. From that experience I’d say do the nails but do the screws a different way. The hardness of the screws I tried meant it took ages and started blunting the blade quickly...

I have the brother pte 300vp too and love it. Very often heavily discounted at screwfix. Of those using the aftermarket tze tape knock offs, any recommends for those with good adhesion? I’ve had mixed experience.

You might want to re read my post and stop being quite so reactionary. Bit of a weird reaction tbh.

Just been researching exactly this. From everything I’ve watched and read despite having Makita everything else I won’t be sticking with them this time (Their multitools are either a) two models which are a little old school (no light etc.) or b) expensive and only using Starlock Max blades -...

The ‘we’re in an ice age’ thing is interesting and used a lot in climate change denial. It’s all from a number of papers in the 1970s that got huge amount of coverage which has led some of the very prominent deniers to state that ‘the consensus was global cooling very recently so scientists...

It’s not that’s kinda the point (clearly I knew that. You’re ’I Don’t want to live like that’ comment was odd as if you just mean ‘I don’t want to live in a city’ presumably you would have said that and it would have been somewhat irrelevant As you say, the concept is very prosaic and...

Notice the word could. I didn’t say you HAD to walk to the shops. What do you mean by ‘live that way’? What do you think 15 minute cities mean?

In other news, this thread is very encouraging compared to a number of similar ones I’ve seen other forums recently. Top work all.

The most amazing one is the 15 minute cities - a concept that essentially says ‘wouldn’t it be good if most people could walk to the shops’ that has somehow been sold to those with slightly boiled heads as ‘the WEF/Bill Gates/George Soros are going to fine-imprison you for leaving your...

I’d still love to know the answer to my question. I understand some people don’t believe all the scientists etc no matter that fact that effectively all of them agree (balance in the media has had the negative effect of making people think that opinions are split 50/50 as an interviewer will...

This is another thing I can never understand. Most people I meet who don’t ‘believe’ in a need to address climate change are also those who think immigration is a scary idea thing that must be stopped at all costs and entirely miss the fact that all those countries where the brown people they...

The other thing I can’t understand is the concept that ‘all these scientists are being paid off to say climate change is real’ who by? Surely the vested interest with the biggest money is oil, so why wouldn’t they be paying them off to say the climate is fine?

That is an excellent post

You haven’t answered my question yet. What I struggle to understand is that if you put it in woodworking terms, if you were choosing a new drill and looking at reviews on YouTube and forums and of the woodworkers who clearly had huge amounts of experience, knew what they were doing and had...

What makes you believe this person over all the scientists who would say otherwise?
