"Max load 3kg"

 

Is that the force needed to pull the cable out then? You could use it to tether your Silky I suppose.

I wonder how Wilbur and Orville coped with all the naysayers?

Not naysaying, just helpfully pointing out that many saws are heavier than the max holding weight of that yoke. I'm sure it could be overcome somehow. 

 

My first thought is that it'd be easily overcome by hanging the saw on a hook just next to the device.

I’m only joking, just dicking around with ideas.

 

Now, the hoverboard in Back to the Future…

Is this what you're after or does it need to be self retracting like a tape measure? If correct, please transfer the £200 offered plus P&P...

That’s very close, I like the way it comes out of the tool carrier without any tricky finger work. Probably the best I’ve seen in terms of efficiency.
Does the cable stop at arms length? I mean if you dropped the saw, how far would it unravel?

Cable is approximately 1.5m long

 

Tool carrier is inspired by the Buckingham Buck carrier but made with a coat hook from Wilko (RIP)

Pretty slick.

Not sure how functional it'll be.

 

Cobbled it together after seeing this thread
