What do you people think of electrical box sinkers? Do they do there job or are they a waste of money? Was thinking of buying the armeg set but didn't wanna waste £230 if theyre no good. Would any1 recommend them? Any views would be appreciated
Armeg also not good on hard brick, you're still better off with a chisel (SDS or hand) in that material.
Armeg good for blockwork esp. new builds where you have a few to do. You have to go easy when doing deep boxes or you can end up looking at the cavity!
I wasn't prepared to pay the extra for the double socket kit since all it has for the extra £75 is a little template and the corner thingy for a double box. I made a template out of some ply, and I use a flat chisel for the corners anyway.
The main cutter that removes the bulk of the waste is great in soft materials but utter pants in anything hard - it took about 10 minutes of solid drilling for one socket in some red house brick, and that doesn't include the corners...
For the money I don't think they are worth it, the main bit just doesn't cut it - literally.
