White finger syndrome?
Was searching about HAV and was epatitis
Anyway I'm sad to read about this kind of issues because as it cause problems to you , a day can cause problems to me ,to a friend or somebody else ...
Normally I wear leather gloves when I use angle grinders,but I also use demolition hammers without antivibration safety features.
I think that I will take low vibrations tools in the future

I don't have the impact wrench, Lidl had them in my store late last year but have not restocked them since, so I keep checking the website, with an air and electric I don't really need one but....
Impressed with the grinder, although the guard does need to be modified to fit other disks - not a problem tho..
Parkside stuff is all over ebay if you want to see better pics and specs - for non commercial grade I think its pretty good quality stuff.

Good news folks! The plasma cutters are coming into NI stores on 14th Feb so they should be in GB soon as well!

Lots of other tools in as well, including these very handy air swivel couplings, makes tools so much easier to use as you don't have to wrestle with the snake that is your air hose!

Bad timing for me, car insurance due next month so I was trying not to spend much in February!
I guess I could justify it as a valentines day gift to myself, got nobody else to buy me anything & it will will be a darn sight more useful than the crap any of my exes bought me!

Game Theory at work.
Do we queue up half an hour before opening time on the assumption that all the local DIYers and Tradesmen will be racing to buy one or;
do we hold back and go in every day until they are on clearance because they stocked them mid-month when no-one had enough spare cash, or didn't really know what they were, or if they did know already had a bigger/better/more expensive one?
Hm, makes the choice to use a Snipe on eBay look easy.

Hi all, first post here
I got the Lidl offer booklet today and one thing that I've not seen mentioned anywhere in this thread is very important. On the plasma cutter offer is a warning that it is fitted with a 16A industrial plug. It mentions it in the page linked above by Turbo, but it doesn't show the picture, as it appears in the booklet, and it may be easy to miss.
An adapter lead is easy enough to find, but how safe is it to plug it into the domestic power supply?

They're just covering their ass.
Which is handy, because some people will be put off by that, thinking it's not a diy proposition, leaving more in stock for the rest of us.

Is a good notice to me ,a plug in less to buy
Here in Italy the standard circuit breaker is 16A so I think isn't a risk to use at home ,almost here
