onetenor Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Let's not forget Lidl tools as well often the exact same tools as Aldi .The two firms are so much alike I swear there's a connexion between the two Firms. I did hear they are owned by two brothers but I don't know if there is any truth in this rumour. One of my favourite tools is the oscillating/vibrating cutting and sanding tools by Workzone but Parkside is another and I love Einhell tools. We used a lot of their stuff in the garage and they are great. Just as an aside I have a workzone mini screwdriver that runs on 3.6v. Terrific torque but no speed control of any kind. It's all or nothing so you have to apply a lot of pressure to stop the driver tip from jumping out of the groove.I wonder if I can fit a controller switch from another tool. . Room might be the problem.I wonder if anyone makes tiny escs I also got some great stuff from Netto really cheaply often with 50% off managers discount for some minor damage or missing bit. A real prize was the spraying and other air tools in a kit £10 because something was missing and as a result the manager threw in a second spray gun.I made thousands doing paintwork for people.Guns still look like new when cleaned up after a job.and the tyre valve adapter tool is a godsend. Coupled up to my Aldi/Workzone compressor I've had loads of fun.Torque driver tool is another godsend.. Tight nuts and bolts are a doddle using the impact switched on.. So 3 cheers for Aldi ( And Lidl ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Robertson 3 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Aldi - is the one with the brothers (in the past) and is split North and South. Globally, not with reference to the UK. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldi Lidl - no connection, no brothers. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lidl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
