Hi there – great site. Firstly I’m looking for

any ‘Kitchen Installer’

training courses that may be out there. I’m based in Cheshire but prepapred to travel further a field. I’ve tried all the

usual outlets but come up with

nothing. I have a ‘Kitchen Makeover’ business oppertunity available to me and

although I have no problem fitting doors and accessories the thought of fitting worktops scares the

hell out of me.

I’ve read your article on w/tops which is very informative, but I guess you can’t beat the real thing. I’m also in the

process of buying all the relevant power

tools. A joiner friend of mine recommends a brand called ‘******’ its

German, really expensive but I’ve never heard of it – is it any good?

Thanks

Hi there Your joiner friend is

correct – ******* make some brilliant tools

and also have a cleverly designed storage system. All the boxes stack and interlock so transporting tools from A – B is

secure. But, and

there’s always a but, ******* are expensive compared to other brands although if you are willing to

pay extra for quality, they may outlast competitor’s

products. Of these, I think it’s

worth considering ******* (who have recently supplied ‘General Purpose Combat Power Tool Kits’ to the MOD – no, I don’t

work for them!),
Personally, I use ******* because they are robust, fairly reliable and there’s a wide range to choose

from. I usually buy from Ebay sellers and achieve some good savings.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Steve,

I’ve gone the hole hog and purchased ‘*******’ – you’re right they are fantastic.

Cheers

We would like to apologise for the mystery

surrounding the tool brand names eliminated from the previous posts but as a site whose existence and maintenance is

assisted by the support given by a number of reputable companies

who value it’s worth, we feel it is unfair to name

companies who, as yet, do not.

Tim Foley.
