Write/draw treasure map on the wall before sheetrocking then bury something in the garden for the future owner to find.

Hilti tools are top quality. I would say they are the best on the professional market. The biggest problem with this is that the thieves know this as well. so much so that a lot of friends do away with the distinctive red cases and use generic ones instead. Especially if travelling from site to...

Having watched this thread since it started. I thought it was about time I put my old Record 75 on here. it has been in the family at least 70 years. it is a unbelievably handy tool with the anvil and conduit bender built in. My grandad always called it the mechanics vice. He originally fitted...

Is it cost effective surely mxing the cement with ballast will make it cheaper and stronger.
