This worn out old scaff is still using a feeking spanner:NOTE TO SELF buy a fu cking IW
 
Some interesting threads on the iw. Was mention of some sites banning these as they damage the fitting,over torqued etc.
 
Mind you they are feeking noisy , couldnt imagine trying to strike a job on a Sunday morning in a residential street with one
 
I have one, Makita 18v

It is the dogs danglies.

Example, was stripping a loading bay today with beams, lots of transoms, it had been up a while, fiitings were dry / rusty etc I was undoing 6-7 fittings in the time a lad with a spanner was doing 1.

And as mentioned great on the wrist, elbow, shoulders.

Just buy one you will NEVER go back.

think that was 1 of the davantages of the makita was the break when you let go of the trigger it instantly stops were a hilti will continue to rotate a few more times i think
 
Exactly right marra, the Makita is the best one.
 
ma akita has a break when you let go off trigger it stops.you allso need 2 get a makita socket it comes with a pin that stops it falling of
