Blue Bosch - cheap as the green bosch from other places. Quite acompetant
machine.

I'd second that. I got fed up with sub-£10 machines that always sounded as
if they were about to explode in your face and packed up as soon as they
got a whiff of dust in their switches, and bought one of these blue
Bosches. Nice machine.


Don't forget to include 1 pair ear defenders, 1 pair googles or face visor
and one pair of leather gloves. The first two are *essential* and the last
will save your hands.

Particularly when you're cutting metal - showers of sparks are *hot*!!


That is what I got - and unlike in the Screwfix reviews, mine did come
with a decent case for (IIRC) the same price. From Toolstation. Might
have been a passing special... (couldn't see them just now).

Very nice soft start.

onset.
Although common it frequently goes undiagnosed.
