I saw one of the tool chests the other day and they are a bit on the wonky side! :smiley:

Would like a work bench top chest to go on my bench in the garage as that would tidy the place up no end as I have about 12 different socket sets knocking about! :rolleye:

Post by: vRStu on October 03, 2010, 06:50:53 pm: I went to pick up some items today and looked at the chest - I'd give it a miss myself.

I got the pliers (Both sets) which work out at £4.25 each and they are a steal. I also got the 36 piece socket set only to realise when I got home that I already have one - Ahh well.. :evilgrin:

I think the offer ends today but if they are still on the website at that price then it says that's the price you pay. So you could reserve for pickup.

Post by: vRStu on October 03, 2010, 06:58:32 pm: It won't do your mounts but you can have it yes. :drinking:
