Hi, Axminster released an upgraded lineup today so maybe worth looking at? I have a floorstander from the previous range and it suits me fine as a hobbyist.

Tidied it up. And challenged myself as to why on Earth I kept so much stuff in there that wasn't worthy e.g. general household storage that had no right to be there. It feels good and now I can better organise it for its intended purpose!

I have this drill, bought it on a price reduction (the current price shown of £200) and have been really pleased with it. I had a Fobco Star before but never had the time and inclination to give it the TLC it deserved. So I went for this, brand new and with a three year warranty. I like the...

I've got the Bosch one you've quoted, bought on a combo deal with the stand and then there was cashback from Bosch. Delighted with it, solidly built, true and gives excellent results.

+1 for Aspen and ergo start on my Stihl chainsaw. A 5 litre container of a Aspen makes it slightly easier on the pocket but well worth it for the saw, strimmer and leaf blower.

I managed to pick up the circular saw, jigsaw and two guide rails. Judging by the few left in such a large basket in store the guide rails were very popular indeed!

Good luck with the Makita - the reviews on Amazon are horrendous!

I picked one of these Karcher WD3 P multivacs up last week following an email offer from Screwfix: http://www.screwfix.com/p/karcher-wd3-p-1000w-17ltr-wet-dry-vacuum-cleaner-240v/91431?cm_sp=Search-_-SearchRec-_-Area1&_requestid=203174#_=p £50 off is a solid reduction - the higher price is...

Can't speak for that, sorry. But I'm tempted by the router if just for the built in dust extraction.

Put the cordless drill, sanding kit and saw in my basket. Paid for drill & sanding kit then got home & realised the saw must have still been in the basket! #-o Now sorted thanks to my good lady who went there in her lunch break and picked one up for me :D

Impressive delivery timescales, order placed yesterday at 3pm with me thinking it would be delivered on Friday when I'll be in and they attempted delivery today at 11am. Yes, I could have checked their site for cutoff times but they do have their delivery logistics sorted out, it must be said...

I've used these from Machine Mart, attaching them to French Cleats, good price at £9.59 for a set of three: https://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/3-piece-magnetic-tool-holder

How is your Axminster radial drill? I'm looking at those at the moment.

I have a TS250-2 and found that the extractor tube that connects the lower blade outlet to the main outlet has a huge kink in it meaning the dust can't get through effectively ( or at all?). I phoned Axminster and they said a batch of the saws were fitted with very stiff hoses and this is...

I paid £113 for my Fobco Star just over a week ago. I've been looking for a while and set up an eBay search with a mileage I was prepared to travel in order to collect it. To be honest I would have probably stretched it and called it a day out if a bit further away but would have drawn the line...
