Having met Mailee's family and realised there are people around here with serious router cravings, I got to thinking about the contents of all the plastic boxes on my shelves and how many power and cordless tools I actually have. One quick tot up later and I come to:

Routers (4), Biscuit jointer, Jigsaw, Circular saw, Electric planer, Screwdriver, Drill/driver, Combi/driver (2), Mains hammer drill, Mains SDS+ drill, Wall chaser, ROS, Orbital sander, Delta sander, 3" belt sander, Dremel, Electric chisel/carver, Heatgun, 9" Angle grinder, 4 1/2" angle grinder

Now, I knew I had a few but I'd never have said I had 24!! :shock: :shock: Hope SWMBO never finds that out!! 8-[

How many have you lot got then?

Is this the British definition of a power tool (hand held) or the 'Murrican one (every darn thing with a plug)?

Well I thought it meant portable power tools.

But I really think we should have a poll for planes and chisels :twisted:

Elu biscuit jointer
Elu MOF96 router
DeWalt 625 router
Elu jigsaw
Elu 180mm circular saw

I don't think the database will cope with all the information - it'll be too much for it to handle :p

I was thinking that if I did start counting :-k

I forgot the biscuit jointer and the circular saw. And the angle grinder (but that's HI's) as are the scrollsaws and some of the drills.

1 router table if that counts?
2 lathes (one retired)

2 Ryobi Cordless Drills

1 Bosch 1/2 Sheet Orbital Sander
1 SDS Corded Drill

As we are currently going through a period of load-shedding with the power out for 6 - 12 hours in every 24, I'm relieved that I have a reasonable selection of hand tools to choose from too!
