RIP old friend

[Mike Jackson]

It had to happen one day but it's still a shock when that day comes.











My old faithful 18v DeWalt combi drill bit the dust today. The old faithful managed to stagger on to the end of the job but just couldn't cope any more and overheated and died as I finished. This was a relationship that has lasted 10 years, I've been unfaithful a few times but still came back to my old friend.


Still looking on the bright side it means I get to buy a new tool. resents1:

I've treated myself to a
[h=1]Hitachi KC18DKL/JA 18v 2pce Power Tool Kit 2 x 4Ah Li-ion Batteries[/h]
it's a drill and impact driver and comes with an offer for an extra battery when you register on line.

It wasn't cheap but all the cheap deals have low output batteries and I've bought cheap before and regretted it.

I might take it to bed with me tonight.
