    Hi folks,

    I'm looking to get one of these:

    http://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p=060722610&r=2109&g=115

    ...although not necessarily that brand, just any brand and not too dear.
    Are these sold in the likes of B&Q or Woodies or do I have to go to a specialist power tools shop?

    (or would anyone in the North Dublin / Meath area be flogging one? :-)

    Cheers,

    B.

    I'm nearly sure I've seen them in B+Q, though definatly in Mcquilans.Seen as your on the north side you could chance the fairyhouse market on sundays,always a few tool sellers up there.Not sure of the prices though.

    Why buy one o them, when you can get one o these http://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p=060714020 :D

    Aldi / Lidl sell these every so often, cheap with the usual 3 year guarantee.
    I agree with the doctor , much better than a stand on its own

    Well, I've just forked out for a new drill (as the last one would start up as soon as it was plugged in :eek: ) so shelling out more on another drill isn't on the cards, but thanks for the advice on that anyway.

    The job I have in mind for this isn't going to last long, and I'm not the most frequent DIY'er so a cheapie will hopefully do me.

    Will check the usual shops this weekend then...

    Cheers,

    B.
