The Plasma's were all gone in my local store. I have a prev version already (no onboard air, but I have compressors so no problem there) which has the self-ignite feature.
There was a Sabre Saw (corded) for £37.99 that I was tempted by, but resisted (I'm spending enough doing my van as it is).

Just keep bringing the money home. That's all they care about.

You may well be right because as far as I'm concerned I'm as near perfect as she'll ever get

Don't forget repairing it's quite high on the agenda , as a lot seems to get broken and but no one never seems to know how

The infamous B12 tap holding collet chuck for the Fein ASGE 636 I've bought last month.
So I can proceed with its restoration
Then things got serious , after acquiring the Stihl MS192T I was looking at an FS 90 engine, I was thinking about buying it or not ,decided to not because I've found something little bit bigger ,little bit more powerful , and which is more let's say for men ...
The price was not too bad,it was on my to purchase list and it's for spares and repairs but at least it's a complete tool .
Hopefully it will be an easy fix,I kinda feel when I got a bargain .
We'll see if I'm right when it arrives home .
HUSQVARNA K770 CUT OFF SAW
I don't know what's its displacement but I think to remember it was something like 90 or 102cc's
A beast anyway.
On my list there was a Stihl TS 400 actually but this is a good one anyways

I bought the Milwaukee M18 1/2" Router last month and didn't have any bits for it. A neighbour gave me a couple of new bits that he had them left over in a box from his wood bothering days. A Whiteside round over along with a couple of Trend bits, round over and flute. I'd heard before what sounded like mythical claims about Whiteside bits but trying the bits out on some MDF board and was stunned at the finish it left and what is normally a difficult board to cut without leaving a messy edge, it was almost perfect and light stroke of very fine sand paper would finish it. The Trend just confirmed the problems with MDF. In a moment of excitement ( I need to get out more ) I bought a Whiteside starter kit which arrived today and I can't wait to put it to use in the coming months.

I now have two of these, great machines. Not intentionally, first one I bought was in the US when they were first launched, plan was to pick it up the next time I was over for work, or get one of the guys bring it in their luggage when they came over here. Then Covid hit and postage was extortionate as it just crept over a weight limit so it languished in a colleagues house in Chicago for ages. In the mean time I needed one while making the new kitchen so bought one when they were launched over here. Then about 6 months ago, a colleague returned from the US with the first one in his luggage for me. It now means I can now have one set for dovetail pins and one for tails, makes dovetail drawers easy when using a jig.

I've had the M18 palm router for a while but it has it's limitations and was considering the M18 1/2" to replace it and nearly talked myself out of it until a new one, full kit, came up on Facebook Marketplace at a price I couldn't ignore. Last time I had a 1/2" router it was a corded Ryobi and this Milwaukee feels so much better to use and power on tap if I want to push it. No doubt I could stall it out but would probably ruin anything I was working at the same time to do so. Not sure if I'll get rid of the palm router now as it's handy for having to hand with another bit installed ready to use so like yourself you're not having to swap bits over.
Next on the list is guide rails

The 1.1 kW motor was £10 on ebay; the 2.2 kW inverter (variable speed drive) was £53 on amazon. Mug and work-in-progress lathe project headstock for scale!
