Some Cracking Tools At Lidl Next Week

[jacko264]

I am not saying don't buy air tools but be very careful of vibration times we use them at work and the time for a sander is 2hrs in 24 hrs

a air saw is 1 minute a day needle guns are about 3 minutes in a day

If i am using a sander for 2 hrs i can't use other air tools all day

What i am saying is check the times before you use them H&S you will not want white finger

I don't think you would find HAVS a thing to laugh at if you develop it.

Christ, lighten up!!! I'm sure Wooly is a big lad capable of making his own mind up.

 

 

Luckily his boss T let's him get on with the job in hand....

 

As blaster bates said, one side effect of having the sh!t shaken out of you by a big pneumatic drill is it makes you rather anti social.

 

The Victorians would of got sod all done in today's world. Would have been a few less deaths though....

Blimey .....I needle gunned the whole of Sabina H (inside and out) all day, every day, for weeks !!! (and it was one of those wopping great two handed monsters) Tougher bits were walloped with a BIG 'mer until the scale flaked off. Reckon I should have developed white body.....let alone white finger.

 

Some years earlier I wire brushed the whole of a 72' narrow boat (again inside and out) with a 9" angle grinder fitted with those big cup brushes (my leather apron used to look like a hedgehog at the end of each day)

 

Apart from back ache buxxered elbow joints and tinnitus I'm still fine

Needle scaler looks a lot like my Clarke one, presumably orignally from MachineMart, I wonder how the quality compairs as while basic I have had not issues with mine to date.

Indeed. earlier this year we bought a garden shredder from B&Q, their own brand but Chinese-made. We plugged it in and Mrs. Athy started happily feeding it small pieces of wood to chomp up. After TEN MINUTES it hiccupped, burped and ground (?) to a halt after disgorging half of one of its internal castings through the exit hole. To my surprise, B&Q gave us an immediate refund with no questions asked - this suggests that they must be used to poor quality in their Chinese-sourced tools

 

 

Silver lining: I never wanted the bloody thing anyway.

 

My Goodness, have you not read my moanings about the 'Quality Stuff' China churns out? You can take a horse to China.....

Horrible white fingers at the breakfast table:

Tools that may have a bit of quality, though I wouldn't be too keen on the Argentinian stuff (made by Argentinians in string vests in sweatshops in Buenos Aires?) (probably with white fingers also):

The compressor from Lidl is rated at over 2000watts, this has to come from somewhere and batteries isn't usually a good place! If you want to run a compressor off a generator then electric tools may be better.
