I saw this kit in Lidl yesterday. Thought perhaps some of the tools
were for pipe bending, which I do fairly often but it seems they're
for putting thread onto pipes.
I know the old iron pipes used to be threaded but what modern plumbing
pipework has threads cut into it these days?


Probably for metal electrical conduit


I did wonder if such activities were considered as "plumbing".
But then, what other than lead-work is?


Copper has been for a long time. Nowadays it's plastic.
