    Default Budget power tools at Aldi

    Hi there,
    Just a heads-up on a range of power tools coming up at Aldi next Thursday 6Nov. Includes a small table saw (200mm blade), battery drill, grinder, as well as chisels, a work bench-like thing and some bargain drill bits! Would take some convincing on the last one!

    Cheers,
    Andy Mac

    hmm seen that type of drill before ......even bought some from the big shed for another application other than drilling ..toymaking ...long story ....that type has a charger that DOES NOT switch off automatically ....and if you forget about it ....will fry the battery ....the drill bits are the lower end scale .....metal hss only used in light alloy not steel ....etc wood bits through softwoods like pine, and the masonary through the brick course ....not the brick ...so with that in mind ...for $5 bucks they will work ok
