Great for verrucas.

I given up with LIDL tools They all die too quickly Better off saving up and getting something decent first time around

Hmm was cheap for starret will have to check for square and send it back if not.

Ive found that the Hultafors ones are not bad for the price either and they are actually square

Those are on sale too.

Agree why would you tarnish a hard won brand like this. Maybe some PE mob has got hold of the business.

Awful quality, and you'll be lucky to get a true 90 out of them. Starrett have really dropped the ball allowing their name to be used on these. If you were throwing stuff together in the garden and a few MM here and there wasn't too important, then this is cheap. A lot of different brands use the same item and rebrand it to suit. You can buy 'proper' Starrett squares starting from £30 and they are fantastic and truly square. Look for the black handled ones on Amazon. Again, probably OK for basic DIY use but you'd get fed up with it when you start noticing things aren't perfectly straight.

Bulldog tools factory has mostly gone,tools are Only put together in Britain,all the tooling was shipped i think to India years ago, and definitely not the same quality

brought this last year. A amazing blade on this. have cut a fairy substantial apple tree back with this. Easy to use and good handle. True test for me was cutting one handed while holding another branch back. Great buy!

i did not know i needed different blades for different wood

Good saw, bought one last year.

I don't think many of their items are made in Britain still but their garden implements (shovels etc) are definitely built to last.

Thank you @andywedge

Depends what you’re fixing or changing. I’ve got the 1/4 drive Lifeline 0-24nm one, and a ‘proper’ one like this (roughly 28nm to 200). If you’re changing cassettes you’ll need one like this in your tool set anyway, wouldn’t harm to have both types

Thanks for posting. Your thread was selected for our Highlights section (y)

Last year - halfords put one of their advanced range torquey's in sale. Are they doing the same this year

Try having a KTM ... Look at mine funny and the bolt will snap! Think one of my oil filters covers is like 6NM or something stupidly low

I decided to go for a Sage Smart Grinder Pro. So far, it's let me dial in the right grind I need every time.

Good review of it here. As another poster in the thread said. It is a very good grinder unless you are looking to do Espresso with single-walled baskets.

What did you end up pairing with the Bambino? I just had one arrive today and now am on the hunt for a grinder to pair with it. Thanks for the comment as I almost dived in and bought this one.

I've not been that lucky with this brand, had 3 coffee machines from them, bean to cup, one the grinder broke, the other 2 the milk stopped being pulled through. Customer services were useless, on the fourth occasion they wanted to replace our new machine of 2 weeks with a refinished one, no other offers on the table. Fortunately AO stepped in and have a full refund and also a voucher as compensation (Even though they didn't need to as they were awesome).

Yes.
