Used the magnetic telescopic picker upper extensively when replacing a split hose last year. Saved so much time and swearing!

Got the same. Come in handy for sure

One of those things you wonder why you never bought before. Even used it to wire the house sound systems so I could see the bloody inputs at the back of the amp!

My local Halfords want £8.99 just for the magnetic pick-up tool!

Mine is all in one. Also with a hidden needle for poking stuff

It’s not just me, I bought one plus:
Suction vice
Recharging lamp
Soldering iron
And a few other odds and sods

Was tempted by the suction vice and the recharging lamp too. If I had seen Conaero's post first I probably would have.

I don't want to go and look at what I paid for my Snap On ones but those are exceptional value.

My lidl trips are like

In through the door , she's looking at vegetables but it's too late, I'm on my way to the man section

Hire shops must hate aldi & lidl , stuff is that cheap it's cost effective to buy it even if you'll only ever use it once

 

[conaero]

Indeed. I bought a set of Aldi T hex and torx. A year being used daily, a couple of heads sheared. Went and bought Halfords Pro/lifetime warranty, sheared one of those already.

It’s always the GT/QP undertray torx that gets it first

That looks like a hand tool but cost more than a QPV. That price makes sense to me only of it was Japanese yen.

 

[philw696]

Can't beat Snap On torque wrenches in my opinion.

That is a 2000 lb ft gauge. You might imagine from the photo it’ll fit on your 1/2” ratchet but it won’t. That thing is the size of Ron Jeremy’s knob.

No need to go to the dentist again.

I bought the suction vice but it was rubbish. The suction pad sucked itself off vice !

I've bought this as well - no idea what I'll need it for. I think I've used it once on about 4 years!

I have a similar one. I doubt its accuracy, but for gauging screws etc, it's invaluable.

Just picked the set up myself as well. Great find, thanks. Should come in handy
