    Default What will be next?

    While this is not a hand tool, so it does not quite fit into this forum, it belongs to the Makita family of battery power tools.

    Just what every handy person or tradie needs when working on a job. What will be next? Perhaps a bench grinder to sharpen the ax or chisel before going back to work. If we are going to make coffee, how about a sandwich toaster to make lunch.
    What will be next?

    How about a cordless recharger station so when your flatten your cordless coffee maker battery you can just pop it in the cordless recharger?

    I hear that there's a Cordless Microwave in the Pipeline. Just the thing for the Chippy who doesn't want to walk over to the extension lead where his battery charger is connected (coz it would mean unplugging the charger as well).

    What about a cordless chippy....circular saw for one hand, nail gun for the other hand, and a clamp for his third hand....I might just patent that...

    Oh, "cordless", that's ok. For a moment I read it as "Beerless" and I thought that would have been violating a law of physics!

    Believe it or not, these things already exist.

    Not quite up to recharging larger cordless tools, but currently certainly able to recharge small cordless tools, as well as the plethora of stuff seemingly one cannot live without.

    Yes, it can be plugged into the mains so the cord would need to be tagged. On mains it takes about 3 minutes for 150ml of water as opposed to 7 minutes with a (fully charged) battery.
    But if you are working on a site where mains is not available and you have sufficient batteries you can still have a coffee.

    Default Better then a HungryMac

    Brewing your own coffee on a job site, that would have to be better then drinking a HungryMac one.

    This would make the perfect compliment to it. I saw it when in Brisbane at the end of December.
