I ended up getting a deal on a Gen2 Brushless naked combi for £79. I wouldn't achieved that price selling off batts and charger from the kit. Plus I would have only secured a brushed combi drill. So no batts I'm afraid.

I have it noted down. Will sort it all out after I return from a well deserved holiday.

I have a couple of 5amp batts which are more than enough for me. Along with the fast charger, if I did fully use one (which to date I haven't), they fully charge in the time it takes me to have a coffee break.

Thanks for the feedback, that has helped me decide. Will now start looking.

What would be an acceptable price to sell the 18V 4.0Ah Li-Ion Batteries for? I doubt the standard slow charger would get much as they're are already cheap online.

I have a few 18v Milwaukee items (drill, batteries, and charger), but require a new combi drill. However, the price for a body only drill is only a few quid cheaper than buying a kit with charger, 2x spare 4a batts, and a case. I was thinking of buying the kit and selling the bits I don't need...

I would have left it natural wood (oiled) if I decided to hang it that way around. I will have a play around when it comes to a dry fit and see how they look.

No, far from it. I live in a place that hasn't moved out of the 1930s. The last theft around here was in 1971 when someone stole a sweet banana out of the pick 'n' mix from Miss Wobblebottoms sweet shop in the village. The gates are so I can work on my car and do other stuff in the garage...

The picture shows my original intention to have this side facing the property, and the side facing the road would be all T&G painted the same dark grey colour with a weather cap. Once I offered the T&G to the stained gate frame, the contrast is making me question whether I should have the side...

Excellent, that confirms I'm going down the correct road.

I've just made two driveway gates (1.2 x 1.3m) from 4x2 with 12mm T&G on the facing side (the side seen from the roadside). I will be hanging them on 6x6 posts using 450mm adjustable hook and band hinges. Every video I have watched that shows how to fit these hinges never show the facing...

That was the other Mitre Saw I was looking at because of its 310mm cut. I thought the double bevel in the Mac would come in handy for my lad for his house, plus I get a healthy discount from B&Q, so the cost of the Mac would come in under £80. Just surprised the cutting width isn't listed. Like...

I need to buy a cheap and cheerful mitre saw to make some fencing . Once finished, the saw will be given to my lad in case he finds a use for it. The B&Q Mac Allister MMIS210S-B is perfect for what I want. However, it is about the only sliding mitre saw I have seen that doesn't state the...

They appear to be from another planet, the solar peeps that is !

Solar is in the planning stage, but yes, they insist on a seperate CU.
