I'm 26 lol and whenever I've needed to do something DIY I've just borrowed my old man's tools. It's about time I built up my own collection. Where's a decent place to buy tools? My local builders merchants 'Travis Perkins' seem expensive. Focus seem poor quality. B&Q is too far away. Any online places for decent but not expensive tools? Items such as hammer, saw, screwdriver set etc. ???
screwfix. toolstation for some stuff but the quality can be a bit suspect imo. draper and stanley are ok.
any ideas for a decent tool kit? claw hammer saw tape measure spirit level stanley knife screwdriver set plier set
its best to buy as you need it else you could buy stuff you will never use (obv all the above will come in handy) decent cordless drill (18v+) Proper bolster/chisel and crowbar for bigger DIY stuff. Dremel tool is good idea too
Screwfix and Ebay. Buy the best you can rather than buying cheap rubbish that's not as easy to use and lasts ten minutes.
get yourself down to local auctions ,look for a old vise , as the new ones are crap http://ai.pricegrabber.com/pi/70/14/02/701402686_125.jpg
