I've got a corded Dremel from the early 90's that's still going although does squeal a bit now so time for a bearing change, the modern dremels don't seem to last anywhere near as long and there's a a huge list of disappointed buyers, my one was actually built in Mexico, new ones are built in China I believe? The Lidl cordless gets very good reviews especially with the guarantee they give, seems like a no brainer to me, the fellas in my club snap them up in pairs.
Yep, the Jap saws are really useful, cutting on the pull stroke so have a very thin blade to make thin, delicate cuts, excellent for easing sticking doors, drawers, table legs etc and for using on timber built models.

You seem to have a bug in your computer!  :-)

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Its also on my screen, tried fly spray but it don't seem to be killing it.
I wonder how many have seen it and tried to kill it think it's come in from outside
and been attracted to the screen.

Just scanned the crimper instructions so you can all see what is in the box before anyone goes and buys some

iv had my crimper for years and its always better to make your own leads and have them just the length you need, should think it works out cheaper as well
Hope you have one Tony as im bringing a load of servo wire with me that i took out the railroad
