So where did i go this morning ?

[Gazzer]

Ok you may have already read that i paid Tradetiler a visit this afternoon but on the way i stopped off a the Tool Fair at the Ricoh arena, Coventry.

Too be honest it wasnt a very good event for a tiler but more for electricians.
Companies there were, Dewalt ( very little info on the DW2400 they had on display except a high price)
Milwaukee, nice tools
Makita, good but nothing new
Various Van makers.
Marcrist were there but when i wanted to buy a 115mm diamond wheel for a grinder they said they didnt have any with them ( not true because i found loads on a display on tehir stand but priced too high)
I came away with a nice 110v worklight rated at 55w with battery backup good for one hour.


Of course no show is complete without the goodie bags and this is my modest haul


Free T-Shirt
Free Mug
Free ice scraper
Free wool hat
Free pen
and free toy van

I also met Richard from 365 Drills , a very nice guy and came away with


All in all, a good day
