Hi

For more selection than you probably want there's The Craftman's Choice.

And if you don't mind shopping a little further afield then Dick have a good range, usually get to the UK in a couple of days. They also do some sets that give you a saving.

Holy rubbish Alf... You weren't kidding when you said "more selection" :lol:

Unfortunately my jinx hit while I was looking through the different saws and it threw up this...

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e14'

Invalid column name 'Seal'.

/itemlist.asp, line 45

Damn Micro$haft!

Thanks for the other links guys... I now have a good enough choice that it will probably take me six months to decide :?
