jiml Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I did my apprenticeship at BT and they gave me a full set of technical tools. By far the best quality I have ever seen. I cherish those that I have left and last month found the No.1 screwdriver that has been with me for €$>~% years, lost when oblast moved. So tough I even used it as a drill bit once up a ladder on call and it didn't damage the blade. Amazing tools. Heaven knows what they make them from.

GalaxyGuy Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 T-Strippers. So much better than any other wire cutters/strippers I've used. And no, the 'T' doesn't stand for Tranny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I have a pair of those, oddly enough found them on top of an old fire panel!

AlarmScot Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 T-Strippers. So much better than any other wire cutters/strippers I've used. And no, the 'T' doesn't stand for Tranny. I use T-Strippers rather than Wire Strippers and I never thought about the T, I just assumed it was like you get K Strippers and B Strippers. However don't google T Strippers the result was not Safe for work. I did my apprenticeship at BT and they gave me a full set of technical tools. By far the best quality I have ever seen.

The BT Redcare equipment we get is good quality btw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efficient_systems Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 while your on this subject, whats a light weight sds, my 24v bosch weighs a ton when up a ladder! what you got? I'd be lost without my Hitachi DH18DSL, it's lightweight and packs a decent enough punch for everything I need. It only comes with 1 battery but it's the same connection as the Hitachi 18v drill drivers, I have 2 of these so no probs. Definitely a good buy at £200, had mine nearly a year and it gets used every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al-yeti Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 After all this time I just noticed the new content tab, flaffing around otherwise! Good tool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbmikeb Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Dewalt 10.8v set for everyday use, Very very rarely need to get my 18v out. There always go sub £100 at screwfix so worth a look. You can also by accessories for then, I've got the dab radio, touch and sub charger that all run off the 10.8v battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
