Could be a handy thing - thanks for the heads-up

EDIT: At 180LPM air requirement/usage I doubt it'd be much use on my 25L compressor though.........except in VERY short bursts

Bought one earlier today, along with the paint gun and the angle grinder (got plenty leccy ones but you know it was cheap!)

i already have a riveter but when shoping today i picked up a set of 5 parkside forstner bits up to 20mm, £19.99 on the shelf, £2.99 on my reciept beezer.....

If you ain't got one then get one, if you already have one then get another as a spare/better than the one you have

It either has to be cheap rubbish or out of my price range for me to resist.

'er brother bought the Parkside 80A inverter to keep in the truck 'cos it was cheap.. I used it this week and it worked really well.

In Aldi from Sunday they have one thats 140A and everyone knows bigger is better ... so, just to keep in my truck 'cos its cheap :-)

 

[GW8IZR]

Dont see the inverter??? Ojnly see homewares for this sunday

It was on the paper flyer - now I think about it it might have been the 24th

 

[GW8IZR]

yeah 24th but no details as yet on site
compressor maybe coming in...be interested to see how much this year for the smaller one

'twas 79 quid on the flyer (as was the inverter )

 

[GW8IZR]

prices dropping then I see
2.5hp?

I don't know, I can't remeber all the detail .. but it was a relative who had the paper flyer and I'm borrowing his dog tomorrow so I'll have a closer read

 

[GW8IZR]

What kinda dog ?

Big yellow thing, its a massive Lab that a family had as a pup and it just grew and grew till they couldn't cope. His name is Gwyllt and if you know any Welsh it will give you a clue ;-)

The relative took it to train to the gun but its not really got the aptitude despite being a pedigree from exceptional working stock.

So its a two year old in a shed looking for a home.

We now think we have a home for it and the new owners are taking it for a few weeks to see how it works out for them, but I need to make it a little more presentable and run its legs off for an hour or so before they arrive.

Its too boisterous for my old collie to cope with so I won't have it unless it doesn't work out for them.

I had it in the shower today and he's such a well natured dog that REALLY wants to please everyone and everything he meets.. and his head is trhe size of a football! - his head is also exactly kitchen table height

 

[GW8IZR]

Big dogs are cool, be too mad for Sky...she is looking for a quieter life in her old age it seems...

Sounds like the lad just needs to be someone's very very active pet...sort of dog well suited to someone going hillwalking for miles / flyball or maybe even agility, get his brain working

Yep, he's a nice dog but hasn't learned any manners yet. Hopefully it'll work out for him this time round.

I suspect they would need to resin anchor the flyball turning point down or it would be in the audience :-)

Good man yourself.

 

[wookie]

I was tempted by this ash vac https://www.aldi.co.uk/workzone-ash-vacuum/p/095303171589300
to use as an extractor for my blast cabinet but I don't think it would be man enough seeing as it only has a 1.2watt motor

 

[slim_boy_fat]

seeing as it only has a 1.2watt motor

Surely that's a misprint and should read 1.2kw

had a look at one yesterday, think it is 1/4 bore so may be restrictive on high consumption air tools

Got one in the workshop, its fine on die grinders and such, would't want to run the sad blaster off it though. Should be fine for blowing tyres up.

You would hope so but it doesn't suck much air either, 1.6 cubic meters a minute doesn't sound enough to me to keep up with my blasting cabinet. I might take a punt on it, what's the Aldi's return it if you're not happy policy like ?

The thing that put me off more was it's a PU hose, I much prefer rubber. So @Chillitt what's your verdict on the hose ? Is it nice and flexible or do you end up fighting it ?

 

[slim_boy_fat]

Don't quote me, but I THINK you can return an item for a refund as long as you have the receipt.
