HF isn't that bad a place. I've bought a few bits of Unobtainium from them
over the years.


Yes, I bought a 24" scissor jack from them quite recently, like hens
teeth in the UK and the Li celled torch was very good value. I recently
looked at their 12" Mitre saws, but they seem to be direct drive and
don't have the depth of cut that belt drive gives. Always good for a
look round when we're abroad, but heavy items are a no no to ship to the
US, let alone the UK. Very helpful staff.


They had a couple of items I was willing to pay shipping on to my
gaff, but they flat-out refused to ship outside the US.
******s.
