New tools or gadgets

Just a basic one, but it bluetooths to my phone and I can throw measurements quickly onto a photo or plan - even hand draw the layout as I measure.
It impressed one customer so much that I won the job because of it I think (and he bought one too!)

The combination of laser, Bluetooth an App is great! What app are you using? Bosch have a couple out, they're not quite right there but give it time...

Reviews aren't great. No auto scaling? Do you know if the bluetooth lasers work with other manufacturers apps?

Just been to my local Homebase for a flexitub
and spotted this for you @Kyle Knowles

Yellow 1570W x 920D x 920H (1m on feet) £779
And it's very nice indeed, with a fold down flap on front, very heavy gauge steel.
If I had a spare £800 I'd have it in a moment.






And a much cheaper one @£80
Red 1100W x 580D x 600H
A decent lockable tool box you construct yourself.
No match for a pro thief, but would certainly stop the opportunist.

They are like the ones on sites called site safes. You can bolt them to the ground from inside and store all the valuable tools. Some of them even have alarms, and if you look around you can get ex hire ones for pretty cheap.

@impish was actually the first to bring it to the forum.
I have mentioned it several times tho.

Splendid ✌

Acquired this today, and it seems very impressive tbh.
It rigged straight up to my flex and trend no problem.
Just had to add an extra bush to the fitting.
It comes with a selection of rubber and metal bushes to accommodate different grinders.
Works on both 115 & 125mm machines.
Tried it on a 7n dense concrete block with grinding cup and was dust free!
