I ROTFLMAO when I found you pay £400 for dills and the likes for DIY. Duh!
That would be pretty hard to do.

But Andy manages it.
The only drills that I can see for more than £400 are SDS Max demolition types. I don't have one.

Be aware that the internal size of 15mm plastic pipe is quite a bit less than 15mm copper, and at connectors the inserts reduce it considerably more. This is usually not a problem, but at times it can be. If the cold water feed that you are extending later goes off to the rest of the house you may well find that your water flow is reduced significantly - especially if you have low water pressure.
15mm plastic is fine for a single tap or a couple, but personally I would use 22mm if I knew it was going to feed several items.Matt
Thanks for the helpful replies.

The 2kW router is pants though ;-)
.. and the collating screwdriver. They had to withdraw that from sale.

And the 18V combi - I tried (as in bought and returned) one, and can verify that it is indeed a piece of crap. Not even up to B&D standards.
But it's all OK, because they are from a reputable maker.....
Sort of like mankind really, and look what happened there...... :-)

Interesting analogy :-)
I suppose we do come with a lifetime warranty. However, like the PPPoo one, implementation is not quite like expectation.

cue Judaen Peoples Front Yes all right but apart from the 2Kw router, the collating screwdriver and the 18v combi...
Used to wonder how Ellen McArthur could claim to use PPPro tools on her boat Kingfisher before I sussed - all the dead ones are used as ballast in the keel.
