im with you on this one god knows how some of these plumber would have managed 25 years ago when there were few power tools around
if you have a tool for every job your going to come across in this game youll need an artic not a van
by the time youve gone to the van got the angle grinder and run a lead in it would be done

You don't need to use the tools for the job. All you need is the excuse to buy them so that you can sit in the garage and fondle them.
 
Angel Grinder on a dunny? ye gods. Hacksaw will do the job, will give you cramp but it will do it!!!

Can anyone recommend a decent multi meter, preferably under a 100 pounds. It's for checking boiler components so I don't need a top spec one ....just easy to use and reliable. The fluke 115 looks good but its above my budget. My current socket and see one was great but it's developed a fault.
