    Have you ever watched Automatrics on YouTube? They are tracker company and the videos show you how they find what’s been stolen. More often than not the police are happy to meet them at the location and get the property back. https://youtube.com/c/AutomatricsMtrack

    Apple AirTags Used To Find Stolen Tools?

    They are accurate to within a meter or so, I’m going to get a pack but I’ll make sure they are well hidden wherever they end up

    Why use a cyclone on your vac for power tools?

    I bought this setup from Amazon as it was a complete system already made instead of me DIYing something together. Works well so far just connected up to a Henry Vac, definitely better than changing the bags over and over again. https://amzn.to/3xUdKUC

    Lockdown Workshop Build

    Hi James Yeah the workshops got ties installed now, I haven’t had and issue over the door. I added braces with some more timber but your suggestion of angle iron is a good one which I’ll use if I get any issue in the future. 👍
