Since you work in a B&Q superstore, would you know if they intend to stock
blades for the Bosch PMF 180 multi tool? I saw the tool on sale in the Gillingham superstore, but no blades and nobody knew nuffin. I can buy them on line at RAI, but they are a PITA to deal with, website is a nightmare, no e commerce, they call you to get card details & it takes 5+ days for the goods to arrive. -- Dave The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk 01634 717930 07850 597257 |

I lectured to the Middlesborough Magic Circle last year. Strange place from what little I saw of it.

I saw the tool on sale in the Gillingham superstore, but no blades and nobody knew nuffin. I can buy them on line at RAI, but they are a PITA to deal with, website is a nightmare, no e commerce, they call you to get card details & it takes 5+ days for the goods to arrive. -- Dave The Medway Handymanwww.medwayhandyman.co.uk 01634 717930 07850 597257 Hi there Dave, We had spare blades in stock when they introduced it to our store. Not sure how your local branch is laid out but where they display the blades for the jigsaws and power saws is where we put our blades. The sanding triangles should be universal with most Bosch sanders. If they haven't got them in stock right now they should be getting them in future. When I next go in, I'll get the item codes for you to wave at the BnQ staff. TR |
