Laser level less than a tenner. Workshoes and boots £20ish, and a pair
of handplanes for £3. Anyone tried the laser?

Buy cheap - buy again. When will people learn!



I would usually agree 'buy cheap buy twice' however:

laser level - £10 - perfectly adequate for DIY - saving over screwfix £35

props - £2.99ea - again, perfectly adequate - saving over screwfix on 4 - c£59

'stanley' locking screw case £2.48 identical to screwfix's £13.99 offering
except the 'stanley' sticker - saving on 2 - £23.02

total saving on items I was going to buy anyway = £117

Nice if you can get 'em. Tried two stores near us for the props, round
about mid day Thursday. Neither had stocked them.....
