Any recommendations? I see Makita and Bosch have mains versions for about
£100, and the main variable appears to be proprietary blades (I'd
rather avoid
unless they're a reasonable price). I could be persuaded to go
cordless, but
I'm not happy about adding yet another battery/charger type to my
collection -
and I doubt the cordless tools I've got (all Lidl/Aldi) fit current
models.

Had my old green Bosch out yesterday, still working well. Takes generic
blades. Needs allen key. For my purposes mains is fine.

I've been ab(using) my old green bosch PMF180 quite a lot recently with
generic blades for Saxton.
