    Any reasonably priced resin sheds?

    Looking for at least a 7x7 resin shed that doesn't break the bank. Don't wanna take a chance with Temu or Ali Express unless someone here has first had positive experience.

    Locking flex head not locking

    Bought a well used Cornwell EC4S12L off ebay. The end with the 1/4" drive does not stay locked. The other end (bit driver) does stay firmly locked. Any way to fix this? It appears (to my old eyes) that a hex key could open things up but tried both metric and standard and nothing fit.
