Are Monument pipe cutters still the first choice??

can only disagree Rich, I have had a set of those Bahco`s for about 15 years and never had a problem, probably not the same model to be honest but I have never bought a bad Bahco tool

I'd be pleasantly surprised if that's the case NGI?! But you maybe right.
However, if I can find the receipt I'll contact the supplier.

The cutting wheel just fell off, literally. Used every day naturally, but I've lost faith in the brand now, as clearly the build quality is not as it formally was.
Thanks NGI

there is on the spanners anyhoo.

Probably just the wheel got clogged with cr*p dick, and unscrewed the little setscrew. Clean your tools now and again.

Have you been on the shandy NGI?? I don't understand a word of that!

Yes my piles have all gone now thanks dick, a little squirt of wd40 up the khyber worked wonders, you should have done the same with that pipe slice.

So pleased to hear it dear boy, that WD40 works wonders!! I hear they got a huge Grant to redevelop Scouserland, they're going flatten the lot & start again.
A bit sad really, as I have fond memories of being mugged down Scotty Rd.
Good to hear from you la, keep taking the medication & pass on my regards to your dear long suffering wife & her guide dog.
