Have any of you guys tried our Wood Beaver bits in an impact driver? Yes I know impact drivers are noisy but they have big advantages over conventional drilling machines for this kind of work. Compact size allows inter-joist drilling. Especially when using stubby length bits. Impact...

I do many things here but try to avoid marketing :D Phil.

There is a competition in the pipeline just for the forum. I'll post it before Christmas but the prize will have to be sent in the new year. Do you think if I posted a link to it on Twitter some of our followers would complain that they can't enter because they're not forum members? ;) Phil.

Outstanding! :Applaud So glad a forum member has won something. Makes it worthwhile me posting the thread now.

I spend so much of my time painstakingly creating instructions for packaging, leaflets, website, catalogues etc. knowing full well that a lot of people don't read them :D   Regarding electricians knowing everything, I hear that a lot! However, I do spend a lot of my time in conversation with...

Feel I should point out that the Acceler8% is actually a sheet steel holesaw. It's maximum capacity thickness material is set at 1.6mm. The reason behind this is that the clearance is only on the gaps between the teeth. Cutting tools need clearance to function, giving somewhere for the waste...

Thanks guys for the positive comments on Acceler8%. It genuinely is one of our most popular products at the moment and is outselling our standard holesaws. Other manufacturers have looked at what we're doing in the market with this product and decided they want a piece too. Consequently there...
