Hi!

Got a new, better than my old, PRCD-S (Switched Protective Earth - Portable Residual Current Device) from Kopp Germany today. Bought it after someone explained to me why the product I have used before from a different manufacturer is basically useless, quite shocking (no pun intended) given this is supposed to be a safety device.

Today I picked a peck of Pica Pencils

I find it immensely revealing to see all the lamello (euro) kit arriving in systainers and the true position (us) kit in a glorified cardboard box... only made more laughable by the little plastic handle esp given the price!

[member=9122]CrazyLarry[/member] so true. I'm currently in the process of moving a lot of my tools into a work unit while we fix up and present our house for sale .. moving all the systainer housed stuff was a snap. The TP is still in it's box on the bench behind me waiting to go into a box [sad]
 
Wasn't today, but my most recent non-Festool purchase was a BuildClean air scrubber. I'm digging it so far. It's not the magic air cleaner I had in my imagination, but I do notice an improvement.

I don't usually notice the noise because I work with ear protection always, but when the client comes in, I have to turn the jet engine down to 1.
 
When you can buy a set for not much more than the 3 cutters yo want ...

You are definitely keeping the economy going with all the stuff you buy buddy
 
Bought the UJK Dovetail jig. I was tempted by the Leigh but it was more than twice the price and I doubt it will get a lot of use.

Recieved the Bosch GAM 270 MFL Digital Angle Finder from Acme Tool today.  I got tired of using my small digital angle finder for longer work.  It has great features including a lazer.  It will be great for checking for square the steel/aluminum entrances that are a large part of the work I perform.
 
Hi!

Got me a water/dust/weather- and construction-site-proof "garage" 782 x 385 x 379 mm / 91 l (for my tool bag which is not water resistant and other stuff) and a diamond cutting disc.

Looks like Knipex, if so, you will never regret that purchase. Best pliers I have ever seen, worth every penny!

A boutique wine barrel stain maker called Shinas Estate ...
https://shinasestate.com/

... Amazingly good for the $'s.

Without a proper cellar I only keep a few cases on hand and mix it up with bottle shop purchases as we like variety. A cellar is a big tick item for the next place!!!
