    Just been informed by my daughter-in-law that W.M. McMaster in Belfast is closing after 122 years in business. https://www.wmmcmaster.com/ Just thought anyone in the area might want to call in as they are having a retirement sale.

    Knee Pads

    I've just fitted a floor and skirting for a friend and I've tried using the knee pads that go into the pockets on my work trousers and found they were never in the correct place.

    Florabest rotavator from Lidl

    Recently I have been trying to dig the back garden with the intention of reseeding the lawn. The main problem, besides the lack of time and terrible weather here in Fermanagh, has been the heavy clay soil. I've managed to break the handles on two shovels whilst digging it.

    Power delay extension leads

    I have been thinking of buying a wet and dry vac with a power pick up socket on for using with the router. Not having much money (and that which I do have I'd rather spend on wood :) ) I got to thinking of the extension leads that had the master socket that controlled the rest. Whilst...

    Evolution 210mm Compound Mitre Saw

    I tried to see if anyone on here had posted about this saw before: http://www.screwfix.com/p/evolution-rage3b2102-210mm-compound-mitre-saw-230v/20332# Was just wondering if anyone had got one of these and what they thought of it, was thinking of getting one as its only £50 at the moment.

    Working with an angle grinder.

    When I used to butcher metal for a living I used to always use the grinder with the guard fitted. Something I've noticed recently when watching the likes of American Chopper is that when they use the grinder it's with the guard removed. I know from experience that at times the guard can be a...
