seen this offer and considering buying it. But seems like rhe combi drill has a plastic chuck. Anyone had something similar? Is it worth the price or stay clear? https://www.screwfix.com/p/dewalt-dck407p2t-gb-18v-2-x-5ah-li-ion-xr-brushless-cordless-4-piece-kit/746rg

Yeah I seen some cheap makita ones at screwfix. Nor sure if it's worth it just to get the brushed motor ones over brushless?

You're right mate. I'm so tempted to get the makita one you mentioned sits well within my budget. Someone else posted this 4 piece set below for £379. Which is way above my original budget. But I'm thinking I'd probably need a multi tool and sds as well. If I end up buying the makita . I'll end...

Yeah I think this is a good shout. Just need a multi tool with it as well

Thanks for this, I seen this I read it used brushed motor , however I should look for brushless? How important is that for a sparky ? Brushed vs brushless ?

Thanks for your reply :) I have all the manual tools like screwdrivers etc Megger MFT Got a Black and decker cordless drill. Last year I went to shadow a few guys. Got p1ss taken out of me for that. So I just need power tools tbh.

That's a good shout

I read somewhere stay away from 2nd hands as there's lost of fakes about . Is this bullsh1t?

Hey I do appreciate all the info mate I really do. I reposted in this section as I was hoping to see if anyone found any decent deals. But all the extra info you gave has really helped as I've done Limited work but mainly college.

Leeds mate

Made a thread in the electric section whilst having a few useful replies , sadly it seems the thread has derailed. Anyway I've just completed my level 3 electrical installing course but i need tools. So does anyone know any decent drill sets , multi tools that are going at a decent price...

Any actually suggestions for this guys ?

Thanks for the replies gents... just so you know when I was doing mu level2 I was shadowing a couple of sparkies told then I had my own drillset. Pulled out my black and decker they p1ssed themselves laughing at it. They told me never to take that on a site if I ever was to work on a site. Lol...

Hi. Mate I just completed my level 3 early 40s lol not currently working in the trade. I probably just work for a 1 man band to get experience in domestic work. Then go solo. That's a decent set you posted. I was just wondering if there's a cheaper maybe a different decent brand too.

That does look like a good set. Price is steep. I guess I'll have to take hit at some point .

I'm torn fellas as to what to buy. If someone can post me a link to a reasonable priced set I'd be absolutely grateful. And yeah I will need a multitool at some point. But I'll get the drills first and then in a few months when I got some spare cash I'll get a multi tool iA

Just passed my L3 trying to get some tools under my belt. https://amzn.eu/d/56qdQDP Would these drills be decent enough for most of the electricalwork i do. Whi h will be mainly domestic ? Or a waste of time.. the price looks decent for the set

If I twist the strands and then double it. It is possible.

Hey guys Should you double up a stranded cable inside a plug when terminating then ? Using a 1.5mm heavy duty orange rubber flexible cable. And a heavy duty masterplug. Thanks

Hey guys Thanks so much for your suggestions! I can't believe I didn't even think about DIY shops. I automatically was thinking of the larger stores like BnQ , screwfix etc. I just called local DIY store. He sell 2.5mm twin and earth for 1 pound per meter! I might as well get some extra 5 m...
