    Tools from the old world

    Looking at their site they seem to have different product lineups one of them (still) being king ttc. I am most intrigued by their "Strong" lineup offering pliers with eccentric pivot points, bringing the jaws closer. Someday maybe I try those.

    Tools from the old world

    Curiosity got the better of me. Side by side comparison of Tsunoda CA-22 and Weidmuller KT8 cable shears. Just a disclaimer, imho, Weidmuller style shears are a must for anyone serious about electrical work. (get some!) At half the price I can't blame them for the rougher finish and slightly...

    Got some goodies, never had a set of felo drivers so I just got some on a whim My only previous experience with felo, I always found the shape to fit me very well Bits? Electronics? Microbit! Beautiful seamless overmoulding, the pictures dont't do it justice. Very comfy. Tester/meter by...

    Tools from the old world

    I managed to visit another Slovene tool factory. This time it was Tovarna meril Kovine that specialises in levels and has a complete lineup of measuring equipment. I obviously didn't manage to leave empty handed. (tape measure key chains are the best key chains) My favorite square, stainless...

    Center of the town Zreče, the shop is separate from the factories. It's called "Industrijska prodajalna Unior", look it up like that. The selection is way better than any other retailer that holds Unior but it is very far from the full catalog offering. The entire shop is rather small, likely...

    Had some business nearby Unior, so I decided to finally visit their factory store! Got some very good deals. Scriber and picks, and a couple of VDE screwdrivers I was sorely missing in my box. Most of Unior's screwdriver stuff is actually OEM by Oplast located in a nearby town. An almost...

    Am I late for the Piergiacomi party? Never really use any other electronics cutters, the one on top is a more durable variant, at least in my experience. Related electrician goodies, very well preserved and still in use... West Germany Weicon 100! (last time used, less than 12h ago) This and...

    How narrow is the felo holder? I can't find any bit holders under 9.5mm, except for the flimsy and crooked chinese ones. I work with very low torques so its not a big deal if there is little material.

    Tools from the old world

    Hello I'm new here. I have been eyeing this place for a bit and I love it. I recently purchased this Cimco PZ/Flat screwdriver and I was wandering where is it manufactured. I'm also interested in bits with these cross/flat combinations as I encounter them often in my profession. So far I found...
