JMB, what are you like  [poke]  I thought i was addicted to tools but it seems you have me licked  [embarassed]

That sword saw looks cool as mince, wonder if festool will do one ?

[Deansocial]

woodguy, protool is festool so whats the point?

 

[woodguy7]

Just like the blue & green  [tongue]  Protool is not an option with my dealer, they cant get it.  Protool do cordless drills, festool do cordless drills etc, etc.  Don't see why they couldn't do it !

Like Dean said Protool is festool so no point really BUT! They should make Protool more easily avaliable like festool really!

 Yeah I admit I have a problem! I cant help my self if I see something new I want it as I can see it come in! I get withdraw symptoms if I haven't bought a new tools every month I love knowing that I am going to get a delivery through the post!  Its not always tools  its gadgets really! Camera Laptop anything! Tools are gadgets 2 lol

All my tools do come in the only tool I wish I did NOT buy is the Stabila extendible level!  I was not cheap! I only used it once in 3 years!

I picked up my delivery to day from the Depot as I was out yesterday and missed the delivery!

I had to call up to arrange for me to pick it up! I used the number on the paper but the system couldnt find me! So I had to go on the internet and find the number of the local Depot my self!   It RANG RANG RANG RANG RANG RANG!  Finaly some one answered!  The phone call was very unprofessional I thought! I said can I pick it up now Friday 5 oclock the woman said to me well umm its kinda messy at night everything is every where so you would have to wait abit till we sorted it out your best coming tomoro at 8-10  I was thinking messy?! Why would it be messy your a delivery service you should have a system!

Any way I have just been to pick it up! I looked all round couldnt find where to go! Saw this door open saw some boxes so went inside.  Just looks like a Farmers SHED with boxes just dumped any how!  And this little old pc in the corner covered with crap just messy.   Any way he said whats up! I said picking up packages!!  He said okay can I have the delivery note! I gave it to him! He then said I have seen your ID if anyone asks! I was like I have it in my pocket you can see it if you want he says no its okay.  Then the phone rang! I had to wait!!!   and Wait!!!   Ofcorse I could hear what he was saying on the phone as I was right next to him!  Well he was saying how this Depot is just a mess he trying to sort it out and how doesnt want to be here at Christmas as its all over the place. I was thinkin umm okay I wont be using INTERLINK for my deliveries!   He then went looking for my boxes I had 4 parcels! One of them is 800 guide rail! Well he just droped one of the boxes on top of the saying this is yours right?!?! I was thinking you should be telling me what boxes are mine!!!!   He picks up another box which was ontop of this other and just pushed it off! It landed on the corner!!!

Any why know systainers are robust! He helped me carry the boxes to my van!  I opened up the raill box to see if it was bend! It was fine! Few

When I got home I opened all boxes! To find!  That the Little systainer the corner is SMASHED!!! The big systainer has had such a hard impact that is has bowed the lid and so it moved over the lip and I can not open the systainer I have tried but I just can not open the lid! IF I force it it will snap something!

I would tell every one not to use INTERLINK! Well not the STOKE area one anyway!   I cant believe it!  

I wanted to have a play with my Portool SWORD but I cant open the lid to get it out of the BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jmb

P.s just taking some picture to show you!

I know its not Bunny Bolts fault he told me I would get it monday so it was a quick delivery so good service! I have tried to call him but he is not open on Saturdays it seems! Bit annoying as I want it sorting now! lol    I will be telling bunny bolts to package better though as this could of been prevented as just sticking a sytainer in a cardbox box the same size of the systainer with out any packaging around the systainer in the box to me is not good enough.   My local dealer does that and thats why my T15 drill box got damaged twice in delivery when it was sent of for repair twice.

but really the delivery services should treat parcels with a lot more care

RCF (rexy cyrstals!)  I never had a damaged systainer form RCF as he uses much larger boxes and puts everything in one box with loads of empty boxes and air bags to make everything secure.

Here are the damaged systainers by INTERLINK

As you can see the lid has some how overlapped the lip because of impact on that corner.  Well I can not get it back over the lip with out causing more damage. I have tried I used a knife to try and flick it back over but its to hard.   I tried to open the lid but as you can see on the video it wont!  The SWORD is so close but yet so far!!!  I wanna talk to bunny bolts first really before I wanna try and get the box open so no I have to wait till monday any way!

Jmb I do not use bunnys bolts anymore as I have had items arrived damaged.the packaging is always to light. those boxes he uses are just to thin.

Also I have found that if your items are not delivered and return to the depot the chances of damage go through the roof.

they slide up and down the empty van slaming into bulkheads ect.

you should just force the systainer open if its damaged  it makes no odds Warren will replace it..

hope the saw is ok [unsure] looking forward to some pictures.. [big grin]

Well thats what I dont like!  Know these boxes have had some impact the tools would of had some bashing aswell.  I can see no damage on the Dura Drive drill its knowing its had a few knocks already I look after my tools  I get really paranoid easily.  I can not check the Sword as I can not open the box but again its had some bashing cant be good for the tools!

I have sent Bunny Bolts a email  with a link to this topic.  Adding just a little more packaging will prevent this from happening.  If its sorted out I dont mind and I dont blame Bunny bolts its Interlink terrible really. Jst its hassle isnt it really.

Has bunny bolts sorted out your damage items with no problem?!?!

Hi Warren was as good as gold,its just annoying when goods get damaged in transit for no good reason. when I last used Warren he was still using a carrier that did not give you the 1 hour delivery slot, which I find realy usefull saves you waiting all day for a delivery.

Well if he sorts it out all is forgiven lol!  Well he's lost a customer (you) because the lack of packaging and maybe using a bad delivery company.  If I was to buy anything in the future of him I will be specifying to package it well to save any hassle.

Cheers!

push the systainer back in to place and you wil e able to open it. it happened to 1 of mine and just had to push it in to place

I have tried I have pushed its really hard!    I can look inside and I has a reinforcing bar across the back of the systainer because I tink its a heavy tool. The Dura Drive screw gun does not have the bar.    I have tried lifting but I can see the box turning white in places and I have tried to bend the lid up and over and again I can see white appearing!  Im going to leave it and I want them both replacing it cost me over 1000 pounds so im not going to have damaged goods. Also I had a look on the internet and I have found they have a 18V dura drive I rather have that than the 12V as I can use the batteries with my carvex and other way round with the 18V.

There was more to it than delivery issues..But  they don't tell you when goods have been dispatched so you have no idea when its coming or if its sitting in a carriers warehouse and I have found fixy(slingers) service to be unrivaled so I will carry on using them..when you buy of them you get a dispatch conformation and on the day of delivery a hours slot, so you can get some work in...

YEah the dealer I always use! Has a good delivery service! The delivery guy knows me now! He said another parcel from RCF. Im like YIP more toyes! If im not in he calls my mobile! Asks if its okay to leave it at the front door and im like its fine! The delivery company he uses is much more professional I had to pick up the parcel from the Depot its big clean it has a room to wait while they get your package! If you look through the door everything looks like its organised Not like Interlink I felt like I was on a farm dark messy looked like a tip of parcels lol!
