I may have to invest in one of those. The Kenwood style mixer looks good at £69.99 as well





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Don't bother with the linisher/belt sander, it's crap!
My next door nieghbour bought one. it works if you don't put anything on the belt. It stops as soon as you apply any pressure, even with a small piece of wood.
May be OK for making balsa wood models.
The rubber mats are excellent value though.

drill etc pack

i got a set of 5 from aldi. drill, sander, torch, screwdriver etc. looks good, but would not drill a hiole through warm butter......
so returned them for a refund. I knew a £30 set was not gona be good, but was as a spare set to carry in the truck. lol. really was a lovely hard case they came in thou hahahaha

i would be carefull of some of the stuff...
the hands free i got was great. and a compressor i got was good aswell, but alot of the stuff really is C R A P...

I've used a 5ft belt sander in an empty wood crafting workshop!

Great for flattening flanges on exhausts and inlets etc. You do need to hold on tight though.
