Draper Deals & Offers

These are quite generic trestles sold under many badges. They seem to be sturdy enough for light tasks maybe used as a worktop with a board over it. Prolonged use with scaffold boards may be asking too much from them. For your own safety may be worth hiring fixed base trestles which are only a few quid a week to hire

Thought this said "make sh!t squat stands" I'd have to agree

if I want a squat I normally use one of these?also available at Toolstation! :p

Thanks that would be very helpful if it works.

I'll send you my code if you want it.

Anyone got free delivery codes

I would order this myself but for the P&P. Have a Robert Dyas walking distance which makes it feel even more extortionate. Assume they are closed at mo though. Had a quick look for free P&P codes, see they give 10% to students and NHS workers.

I think there were two +65's, one lashed it together with tape, the other was still puzzling over the unassembled parts. Shades of Kenneth Williams in the Test Pilot sketch. "All these knobs and switches, how do you know what they're all for? What does this one do?.....

The only bad review seems to be from a 65+ who couldn’t assemble it.....

I have one of these. not sharp enough or I got a faulty one!!!

Cheapest price around by far. Ordered in the hope they will get stock. (y)

A good old Bradawl! Any joiner’s best friend!

Wish I'd read that before I ordered. Got anymore?

i lterally just ordered

Expired again (y)

Price for £3.55 is no longer showing even under other sellers.

Unexpired. Thank you (y)

Just so you know you can now added to basket again - still out of stock though

Damn missed the deal, feel like ive been Screwed over for so Long now, needed these to sort the Drapes out.

Looks like the deal has ended 😔

Thanks.... looking for a new bike (y)

Did I want these No did I buy them coarse I did where else could you spend £7,99 @ 3 o'clock in the morning

Thanks, OP

Cheers OP... Was looking for a reasonably priced pair for bike repairs... (y)

Decent little set. I bought one before to take out some Y shaped screws on a Russell Hobbs iron. Worked for most of them but the bits were too fat to reach the deeper set screws.

What?

Non standard keyboard... Avoid.

Often find the screws are too deeply embedded to use short bits, had it again the other day and had to cut out the middle of a slotted screwdriver again.

Great finding. Thanks, I was able to order before it gone (angel)

Ordered. Thanks !

Not very well made. Had for a year of infrequent use before various seals went and would not hold its pressure.

This be any good for spraying fence panels with a colour/anti rot protection?

Have a similar one use it to shower dogs with after a muddy walk or to get sand etc of there paws...

Thought of that as well

I thought it was Charles Wet & Dry https://www.equip4work.co.uk/charles-wet-dry-vacuum-cleaner-240v.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-r71BRDuARIsAB7i_QO0256b1JeL1Sk76Y93gO6c8enfblLAeakp5zxXtoEkBTNWVxjzBMYaAuAvEALw_wcB

It would be whats now the buddy 2 with 240v reduced to 69.99

Which model Nilfisk is that?

The nilfisk one is miles ahead of this and has the mains socket that activates as you switch on the powertools. Serioisly abused mine for years and its still sucks hard

the exact same one (albeit in yellow without the brush handle) comes up in lidl under the parkside brand for half the price. if you were looking for something shopvac style/ash vaccum.

I got some green spotted ones not the floral one. Actually totally different item Draper 82616. They only give you 48 hrs to complain and i have missed that

Sold out... heat added though

Thank you, I have just ordered a pair (delivery around the 6th of May though).

No

Do these cope with rose bush thorns?

Bought from toolstation which worked out cheaper when factoring in delivery cost

Couldn’t agree more with bleach. also leave it over night once you have scrubbed it. Let the bleach,bleach the slabs and patio. Give it a good old scrub with a hard broom. It will white the patio,well it did mine.

Seems decent when you consider price of Karcher.

Could be a useful way to enforce social distancing.

Last year I bought a Nilfisk refurbished C130 directly from them at https://www.nilfiskoutlet.co.uk/ . £80 including additional jets and the smaller patio cleaner and extended warranty. Tried the patio cleaner for the first time this weekend and it works a treat.. shifted everything off the limestone, sandstone and slate (including building work debris), as well as removing crud off the brickwork after it was repointed last summer. Would recommend.

I agree unless you want to spend a fortune , just buy a cheap one like the titan from screwfix and then modify it,lots of vids on YouTube on making sled and fences

Theres an evolution one for that amount, but even thats not perfect. Hard to get a good one without paying alot.

Had one of these for a couple of years. It's a decent enough saw for the money but has a number of drawbacks that make it unsuitable for accurate cuts out of the box. The fence is flimsy and difficult to square as the clamping mechanism too easily drags it off line. The mitre guide has way too much play in the slider to use it accurately and the t-tracks have a really irritating low profile which makes them difficult to find compatible hardware such as t-bolts/sliders, etc - they should just have left them as open mitre slots. Also the removable plate around the blade is a really awkward shape making it difficult to replace with a zero-clearance option. If you're prepared to put in a bit of work and make your own fence/cross-cut sled this is not a bad product as, has already been said, unless you spend a significant amount you'll find the same problems with most budget/mid-range saws.

On what? What's the best value option out there for DIY and home workshoppers? DW745 gets a lot of attention (and I like the look of the rack and pinion fence - nothing worse than a fence that deflects) but it's not cheap.

£139 from folkestonefixings direct

Perfect for when tha needs a cack.

Perfect for when the apocalypse arrives. oh rubbish!! It has already!!!!"

Normally I'd laugh, but right now who knows!!! (fierce) can't wait for normality to return.

You are forgetting some people may need to bury a body or two. Haven't you ever seen Silent Witness?

What are these like against zombie hordes???

yes life saver these. He seems to think they're for terminal connections lol

Yep ive already got a set but they are quite large sized. Havnt seen anything on the smaller side for plugs ,sockets small casings etc.

Just get a tap/die kit. Depends on the "blunt" end, you can often use a screw driver handle designed for interchangeable bits. At these small sizes, anyway.

But then you'll need 4mm screws - can you get them?

Solder idea, I am stealing that and the 4BA never have them when they are needed (annoyed) Thing is don’t do much domestic but do come across it sometimes. Thanks for the clarification.

Same, done me well

Bought the same set 2 years ago at Aldi for £9.99. OK for light use.

Even this lot won’t sort my lasses bush

No stock in Argos where I am. Been looking at it fir a few days!

Sure these are good for very light garden work. Reviews on Amazon are quite bad

If anyone tests positive........

Trigger seemed to think so!

Is it the same mallet if parts have been replaced? Ship of Theseus.

Bought one but can't get any rubber nails
