van and tools stolen - TilersForums.com

a friend of mine who does occasional work for me has just had his long wheel base high transit stolen last night with all his tools inside.
hes mainly in to granite worktops and hence has lost kit related to that type of work.
loads of quality drill bits/pads/ diamond wheels / makita cordless angle grinder/ makita variable speed drill/makita jigsaw for templating/makita cordless drill/ ribbed yellow stabila levels.
if anyone has any good kit they dont use and might like to sell would love to hear.
equally if hear of any tools like this being sold on cheap as job lot, could be interesting.

i hate to hear of this sort of thing as it could happen to anyone of US ,and it just makes me feel sick when you think of all the money good quality tools cost,funny enough i want a makita cordless angle grinder, but there is no-way that i would touch knock -off ,as it creates a supple link for this scum........

This turns my stomach when I here about things like this, it's not just about the tools it's the guys living....

as i said previously, any thievings bad enough but stealing a mans tools that he uses to support his family is as low as it gets. really sorry to hear this jonny, hope things turn out ok for him.

It must take up a fair amount of time but its got to be worth checking Ebay every day or two. The bloke here got his bike back :-

I saw a bloke get caught nicking someone's tools on site once, he got seven bells knocked out of him. Reckon he learnt a lesson though! Deffo worth checking car boots in the area though, you never know .
