A new Huepar pro laser level - I’ve got a fairly ancient cheap black and decker one that eats 9v batteries, and is really hard to see in any kind of light (red beam).
Let’s see how we fare with a green “laser”
I’ve got a utility room to do so it should get a fair workout setting that out.

I bought a Bosch laser level, partly to help cut my hedges level, I got the green one…
Nice one Dan. The betas of the ‘90’s,I always found harder to ride than gassers. Good luck in the trial.
Treat yourself to more then! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dnsys/dnsys-z1-knee-exoskeleton-defy-gravity-go-beyond/

I’ll have to get down to yours, we can finally set a section up!
Wow. Claims "200% reduction in knee pressure", so presumably this thing is trying to pull your knees apart. He obviously attended the same maths class as The Orange Moron with his "1500% reduction" in US pharmacy costs! I'm guessing it's lubricated with pure snake oil.

Makita vacuum, more safety specs, wood auger bits and some gloves.
While the vac is good, it could use a bit more power. Half used a bl4040f battery to do most of the house. The brush pulls it along quite nicely. At £200 I'm disapointed it doesnt come with a suitable brush for cleaning car - as thats main reason why I bought it, I feel a bit silly!
Also a work type jacket, I was expecting blue/navy but it appears they sent a bright red one
Later today I am hoping to finally recieve the set of ladders I ordered last week. Its by DPD and they havent put a delivery time yet.

A month or so back I bought 30 pairs of a slightly different type, and 5 of these. The others are great as general sun/safety glasses, but these have a closer and more complete fit to my face.

Feeeking ladders!!!
A stressfull experience. Should have arrived on last Weds, but Thurs as they sent it late. The seller should have resent on Monday with DPD, but at their convinence, resent on Tues. Today, expecting the DPD, it arrived at depot, but never went out for delivery. At 12:23 it changed to show it was going back to sender. They were not contactable.
I drove to the depot, now closed, then the new one. The guy was helpful, found the ladder and was happy for me to sign and collect it. Tells me it was about to go out for delivery (at 2pm, a bit sht!) Rather than to sender. He could not explain it.
A bit to big for car, but got it in. I didnt have straps for roof rack.
I then went to the local DX and asked the girl there for a detailed explaination. Their tracking changed to say it was out for delivery today, then scanned in to storage.. Im expecting a call with more details.
On my way out I walked into the glass door, banged my forehead quite hard and split my lip open. Luckily the glass did not break.

Tell you what it was tempting to drive up to Slough, the DX head office, followed by Luton, the sender, if it did not arrive !I really don't think you should be working with dangerous things like chainsaws and ladders!
Challenge to fit the comical cardboard wrapping into the recycling.
Couldnt wait to try it. 15 rungs is about first floor window height, so it wont get me onto the roof as an A frame. Only wearing sandles so didnt try that. However fully collapsed, 8 rungs is very stable.
On closer inspection, before I tried it, the blue plastic and rivet does not hold the rungs, they are welded, tho the welds are likely best hidden - I am not sure I want to see the rest!

Apparently those trust X are not Dormer.
But Dormer produces Force X, which should refere to their solid carbide drill line.
Maybe something like that?
If so it's useful stuff
