What's this kit like, I'm not up to speed with what's what in the 18v range but it seems like decent bang for buck. Is the gen 3 the "pro" HD range...

Im a plumber mostly small bore houses etc. I have never used the Knipex Cobra Pliers Wrench. And dont know whether to buy a 7 inch or 10 inch. Hard to tell from picture on computer. Can anyone advise ?
Everyone needs one of these, not just for your tools, it is 24hr tracking regardless of what property you are trying to keep hold of, just connect it to a cheap tool such as a torch and leave it in PLAIN Sight, it WILL be stolen with your precious personal items, and you WILL find them. Prices...
Never really bothered too much with my manual swager but quite like this quick and tidy result, available in new year apparently.
Nicked off Pb Plumber's instagram account, hate that guy....guns too big and van far too tidy, clearly plenty of time on his hands :)
Ordered a rip off makita drill a while back and used it for the first time today, its solid and performs better than my apprentices ryobi so if anybody is on a tight budget figured this might help you out. Just be warned it took ages to get here as the company ships them from china, they're...

Looking to buy some Extra Deep Sockets for use on taps instead of box spanners..The fixing bolts on the taps in my house are 8mm and 10mm, so I was wondering what are the other common sizes? Trying to decided whether to buy a full set of if I only really need a couple?
Been plumbing a while now using Footprint Grips and a selection of spanners. Is there a spanner available that will easily hold a Tee compression fitting while tightening centre nut ?

Just looking at various 22/15mm secondhand benders and notice many come without guides.
Are guides generally interchangeable between different brands or are they specific to a particular brand/model?
In use, is there any difference between alloy and steel guides ie is one type considered...
Seem to be quite a few making them nowadays... Saxon, Shark but don't want to fork out for Bosch if I can help it, just a fair value assorted pack for timber/plastic. Which are decent?
I bought a torch a few years ago that uses EN417 butane/propane cylinders.
As someone who only uses a torch now and again, the torch has been fine on smaller copper pipe but struggles on 22mm, especially in the cold.
I have seen an adaptor by Monument (437a) which I think should allow me to...
I need to drill out a 32mm hole in a stainless steel bar (4 - 6mm) What is the best type drill bit for a normal combi 18v drill.
I need such a spanner to remove a failed IH, and to install a replacement; in a domestic hot water cylinder made by Opus (Cyprus).
I am aware that in general the distance across the flats may vary somewhat from brand to brand, despite all having 1.5" BSP threads.
In my case, both old and new IH...
