the pliers and wire strippers are pretty dam good as well,torches are worth a look

Another vote here for the pliers, the hole saws are as good as Starret but a fraction of the price.
Cheers,
Bob

The overalls are the business, got them last year, gonne get some more this time around.

They are good enough to wear just pants and t shirt underneath, near on completely water proof too, invaluable in the snow last winter, seriously good value for money.

Maplin are also surprisingly reasonable on the hole saws, two sets at £8.99 and £6.99 Maplins

They also do a three piece step drill set at £16.99 Step Drills

The step drill set look identical to the ones lidl / aldi sell for about £8

I bought a tap and die set and it looks good enough for shed use. My old handle had worn out and M8 & M6 taps so at £7.99 it was a bargain.

Yesterday I got ordinary pliers, long-nose pliers, side cutters and hefty great end cutters in Lidl for the grand total of £6.95 (reduced price when you buy 3 at a time).

They seem solid enough, the grips and cutting edges all meet nicely, and the hinges seem good. All made in Germany.
