Hi All I'm after an inspection camera, there has been times when I've needed to look down a drain, or check a leak under a shower, or look under a floor for a pipe run, seen chap ones which attach to your phone, but I suspect these might be rubbish, endoscopes are not long enough. There is...

Hi all. I hope you are keeping well. I just had all my hand tools pinched from the side door of a house as I was packing up. Probably about £300 worth. Is it worth claiming on my insurance or as it is only £300 just pay for new tools. Would my premium go up that much is basically what I am...

Hi guys had to open a new account not sure what happened to my old one.. Is there a drill pump out there that can pump up my 1st fixes for pressure tests? As doing it by hand can take a long time. Thanks.

Hi guys just wondering is there a drill pump or something that I can attach to pressure test when I'm on new builds. Currently using the rothenberger pressure test pump but that can take a while to get up to pressure pumping by hand. Thanks guys.

Replacing 15 x stopcocks @ 22mm thought I'd try cutters as usually I pull 'em and space was tight. These Ox brand 22mm cutters just deform the olive and score the pipe. The jaws don't close properly as witnessed by the burr where the handles meet (pictured) preventing cutting of the olive. Cost...
