RDG tools, on the basis that it is easier to send it back to RDG if it is crap, rather than send it back to India, which is where they all seem to come from. you can order direct from india cheaper, and wait a bit longer for delivery.

Well as it happened I was sat waiting for 4 ton of slate to be delivered so I could slit the bags while in the air and speard it....sadly amies failed and were over two hours late.
