I’m a firm believer that when you’re starting out you buy loads of cheap stuff then as they die off replace with higher quality. Plus it means you’re not spending a fortune on something you rarely use.

@djvincon 3 месяца назад

Yea that stanley screwdriver set is cheap and awesome. I started with that and only bought the most used type of drivers from a more expensive line/brand.

@ShadowFoam 3 месяца назад

I am in complete agreement with you my friend! You coming to Makers this year?

@jparky1972 3 месяца назад

I started with cheap screwdrivers. Sadly, it took me a few years to realise I saw spending money on cheap tools. I've started replacing cheap tools with much better quality ones as the cheap ones die. As you said. Good way to see what you actually use compared with what you buy THINKING you need.

Excellent video ! The shopping trip was fascinating and I love your bargaining style - friendly and you get what you need. As always, the foam layout is just awesome - I never get bored of watching that - you must have been brilliant at Tetris back in the day ! To end up with a comprehensive toolkit for £100 is amazing. Sure, some pieces may need to be replaced over time, but that gives you everything you need for the home enthusiast.

I like that canvas bag setup with the two layers of foam inside. I thought about gluing the two layers back to back then a plywood handle between them to help take them out, guess you couldn't lay the two pieces side by side then when removed. Some good deals you got there, would be difficult to beat and include an impact drill. You can miss me out of the draw, I already have waaaay too many allen key sets.

Seen those 6 in 1 screwdrivers before, I had a job where we were installing routers in telephone boxes and the router was supplied with one of those, its the most useful screwdriver I've ever had, I stashed a box full and I've slowly used them over the 15 years or so. Ran out last year but managed to find identical ones (just a different colour) on one of the chinese web sites, order a bunch while they were still available. Stanley stuff has always been good to me, its basic but reliable. Good find on the Makita drill, used Makita for years and the only issue I ever had was batteries wearing out because I used them too much. All in all a good haull and good call using your local small suppliers, always a few good bargains to be had in the smaller places.

I have always been one to look for bargains when I comes to tools, but it is usually at a compromise of quality. I think you did well to get a good selection of budget tools that should do the job nicely. Best deal I think was the drill for sure, though I am also wary buying 2nd hand tools as you sometimes don't know where they came from.

I agree but the staff assured me that gave checks before they take items and I gave it a test before buying it!
