Power Tools

michaem · Jul 25, 2009

Not sure if any of you have preferences.

But ideally where is the best place to get power tools from.

I realise there is a difference between bosch diy and bosch professional but is there a difference between dewalt makes.

The only place i can think of is screwfix for the power tools

Anyone else got better places to go

Thanks

DeWalt ELU and Black and Decker are all the same company.

They have stopped producing ELU now.

Dewalt is the professional range, Black and Decker the DIY.

i got alot of my tools second hand off ebay, didnt expect them to last that long but they are still going.

Your best bet is to shop around, screwfix is ok and pretty easy to get hold of 10% off vouchers

Try ITS LONDON when they have a sale

HOB UK is also worth a look.

Axminster smaller range then SF but if you like woodwork the catalogue is heaven!

Toolstation(some crap but a few good jems, owned by the bloke who started SF)

Tooled-uphuge selection of both hand and power tools.

If there's a particular item I want I usually google the item name and look for a better price! SF and tooled-up both usually good.

B&Q are holding more professional power tools in stock and do sometimes sell things at silly prices, worth a look.
