Ihave one of those, your right, couldnt leave without one.

The metal bits seem to be good quality (epecally considering the price), I've cut holes in 12mm Steel and they are still sharp.

F*ck me, that's a bargain - I'm off down there now

That’s a bit rude! Is it because you’re down south where everything is more expensive?

I dare not tell you that I also got 10% off!!!!

Not quite, might feel like that wikth my fat back side in there. However my stepson is 4ft tall (dwarf) the 12mm steel is used on the brake adaptions. I have to build all the adaptions for his cars. I can build them for about £30 of steel and 2 days time, but the compnay that normally do it want £3000, becuase they need specalist insurance to cover being sue due to failure.

when i read 300 pieces i thought it would be like the usual ones, where there are 30 drill bits and 270 wall plugs!

thats a bargain and a half...

Picked mine up this afternoon at ashford middlesex branch £24.99,had to get it out of box to check.

It really is a blinding set for the money

Ben_Copeland - 5/1/04 at 06:07 PM

£24.99 thank you very much

bob - 5/1/04 at 10:30 PM

Got the drills and the ruddy cordless has given up the ghost,just by luck though mrs bob popped into aldi's to get one of those 28" widescreen flat screen things for £220 and noticed a 24V hammer drill driver with 16 torque setting and that and everything £29.99.

the old drill (makita) cost over £200 and lasted nearly 4 years so at 30 quid i dont care if it only lasts a year
