Thanks guys for the very quick reply! Plain awesome! I have never heard of LFA Amyot before. Are there any drawbacks of converting a non-SDS machine to SDS? The Metabo is brand new and I don't want to destroy it this early :)

Thank you. The idea looks good. Do you use LFA chucks? Are they good? And are they made in the USA? Or are they imported (maybe even from Germany where I can find them)?

Thank you Monte! Now I clearly understand the difference between SDS and non-SDS machines. I am not mad at the Heller drills, because they work very well. Do you have any clue where they are made? Just out of interest. Your tips cost me money :)

Hi guys, I am goint go buy me a new impact drill. It will be the Metabo SBE 1100 plus. First, I wanted the DUSS SB 13/2 RLE, but it is way more expensive :( The Metabo has the 'Futuro Top' drill chuck. Is it possible to fit an SDS plus drill chuck? What are good SDS plus chucks that will fit...

This is exactly like my 1/2" Stahlwille No. 52 sockets looked like! Plus mine are rusted. Three times used... I received an answer from Stahlwille. They won't replace mine. As a sidenote: My Stahlwille tools tend to rust more easily than my other tools. Unfortunately as much as I like ratchets...

I own some old Heyco wrenches and a set of maxline wrenches and must say that although they are heavier than Hazet, they are at least as good. Especially the maxline wrenches. They are in my opinion the best wrenches that I have but they can't do the job in very tight places.

I have ratchets from many manufacturers that are based in Germany (I mean Made in Germany) - Belzer, Elora, Gedore, Hazet, Stahlwille - and I must say that the Hazet ratchets are very good. To my surprise the ratchet that I use the most is the =146747,136230,136231,136232,140956"]1/2" Gedore...

Thanks Monte, Würth it is. :thumbup::beer: Just out of curiosity: Who makes the pliers for the automotive sections of Gedore, Hazet, NWS... For example the valve stem seal plier: These three look exactly the same, have the same dimension, are made in Germany etc. Gedore...

Thank you :thumbup: I am going to renew my locking pliers. Monte posted the beautiful Facom T5.L not long ago... but it is too pricy. Or can I buy them from another company of Stanley Black & Decker? I would love to buy locking pliers from Grip-On, because they are epoxi resin coated. But Elora...

I have found an offer for the IR air wrench: http://www.ateshop.nl/de/ingersoll-rand-231gxp-schlagschrauber-p-43.html You can buy a toolboot with it :thumbup:. But it costs more than the CP and the Hazet. (On a forum I found this: "Made in China by Ingersoll Rand, Designed & Engineered in USA"...

Thanks to Monte and cosmic binturong I bought a 5-piece Bosch X5L drill bit set. This thread and the people posting on it are very helpful. Let's keep it going! I want to ask something: A friend of mine and I are going to work a lot on cars together. To make things easier I want to buy a...

Try and send him an email. I have never bought from him via shop, only per mail. And I bought for less than 250€.

I use a pistol grip hammer drill (Schlagbohrmaschine). Thanks for the advices!

What a sad day. I used 3 drill bits for four drillings. My question is, what are good drill bits for concrete and for metal? My old drill is due for replacement, so what company makes good drills?

Here you go: Link. Is the cheapest dealer in Germany.

Got some new tools from Ko-ken: 1/2" 4750P ratchet, 30 teeth First day and I love it! 8866A 1" to 3/4" adaptor. For comparison with the PK2346/6 set 4750 1/2" t handle. For comparison with 3/8" 3750 and 3/4" 6750 3/8" and 1/2" have the ability to lock the head in the middle. The 4750 is...

You are right. I got an email from a seller. He said that these ratchets are made in Taiwan and the quality assurance is in France. It is under 30 euros so maybe I will give it a try.

Has anyone used this Facom 1/2" SL.161PB ratchet? Picture Is it any good? What are the specs? Some say it has 50, some say it has 72 teeth. Is it made by Gemonio in Italy? Facom answered none of my mails :sad:. It's less than 30 Euros.
