    Default A update

    I all
    I said i would give you a update on how things or going for me back on site after all these years.Right first few days where a shock but went ok and then it has gone made not enough hours in the day so its a bathroom in one house and a ensuite in another but its great to be busy again,a few probs came up but got over them getting done what i am asked to do in a day so over all am pleasd with myself because its was 15yrs when i was on site last.Still not got a wet cutter sorted out yet had a battery grinder (ryobi) what a load of rubbish both batterys went flat in 15 mins all i was doing was around sockets about 8 of them so that went back and money back.So am thinking of a generator instead and a 110 grinder but its all the moving about ,i have had cut the size of my tool box am now useing a bucket i dont mind as most of the stuff in it was no used. So what do you lot keep your tools in?

    Nice to hear you are still at it Mark. Careful with the Gennys, some sites dont allow them anymore. The Bosch Battery grinder is good but lots of ££££, The Makita one is the same ££££
    The cheaper Gennys are 240volt only, If you want to borrow one ( 240v) I can sort you out.
    Good job you took advice from an old man about your CSCS card

    Oh and my dad has a Plasplugs tile cutter ( the big one) 110v. I know he doesnt use it so may be able to get that for you if any use. Cant ask until he is back of his holidays.

    Hi Marky, glad to hear you'r busy. I use a couple of Fat Max tote bags, also buckets. I have way to many tools, but every time I have a clearout I get a job where I think why did I get rid of such and such
