Sorry - i only came in to check on a mesenger message but couldn't resist even so close to 12 o clock..........................
I use diamond drills too - only used them 4 times so far ( only had them a month)- one was through wood!!! but it di the job as there was a water pipe behind it ( desperation really as I had dropped a b*****k) did the job though. Shame about the case - would have paid extra for a custom heavy duty case - got one now - an old jelly bean case

Slightly off-topic but just to let you know that of Aug 08 we became the newest member of the Tile Association.

In our quest to bring these kits to the attention of the retail market as a "point of sale" item this is a small step foraward. It allows us to speak to the top decision makers in larger organisations.



Its early days yet but Porsadrill brand is heading (ever so slowly) to the "big 5" in the high street. Its one painful step at a time but lets hope that recognition from the TTA is another string to the bow.

However the biggest credit goes (as always) to you - the end user - Because its you guys at the front line who can make or break a product. The big boys DO listen to what YOU say. And some of the biggest breaks came via end users like yourself actually saying to branch managers, area managers "Hey this stuff is actually very good... Take notice of it and do something about it". It seems that many voices chipping away at these mamouth organisations does bring results

For that type of input - I am more grateful - that you can possibly know.



Richard

Ive been using 365 drills since May and have just received my second order.

I've found them to be excellent and if you keep them cool they last really well.

Haven't heard of them until I found this forum, but not being in the UK makes all the difference.
I get most of my diamond gear from these people:
Derusha Supply
Their vacubrazed tools are really rugged.
