Good job...

I think in this draft you've dropped any mention of what I consider to
be one valid reason for not going for top-end power tools, and that is
their nickability. I suspect most people who take their tools out of
their home or business premises do so without insurance, so it's not a
trivial issue. A collection of four or five high-end tools could easily
represent a £1K investment; very attractive to thieves and potentially
disastrous to lose; the equivalent in cheapo brands could probably be
had for 130 quid - far less desirable to John Q Lowlife, and an
'affordable' loss if the worst did happen.
