Santa has been good to me this year!
Apart from the socks, smellies, books, litre of Scotch I got a Dremmel with lots of bits. Not much time to play, but it seems a very useful bit of kit. Cut off wheels very useful for chopping off the tongue on a night latch, trimming the bolts on a letterbox and it appears to have a 'rotozip' type adaptor & bits so I can cut holes in kitchen unit carcases.
I can also sharpen stuff with it, so it's going to be a real help.
Eldest daughter got me a B&Q McAllister Power Tape rule. Love her to bits so I enthused about it.
I'm a little dubious. It extends at 25cm/second but after about 2.5m the blade buckles & drops.
I reckon it will be a help doing decking & maybe laminate flooring, but I can't help thinking it's a solution to a problem that didn't exist?
It returns at 30cm/second - which is a whole lot slower than the blade release - which doesn't use battery power.
Technology gone mad?
