Love my dollys mate, but Transits have sealed bars as lashing points, not hooks, so ratchets are quicker.

Mark If you like quality rattys goggle Damar. British made and trying to compete with the chinese. A small top quality strap was about £3. They do 1 metre endless green slings for about £2.

Thanks Steve, I'll have a look.

 

I'll probably spell it wrong and order some thermal vests!

Definatly has to be this one. I hate any grease gun I have ever come across with a passion. Constant air blocks, then the pusher bit doesn't go inside the cartridge and push the grease out properly. Grease getting EVERYWHERE except where its meant to go. No tool has ever caused me to have a tantrum as much as a grease gun:laugh1:

Another tool I hate but can't live without is my wolf long reach pole lopers!

 

I used to have real problems with grease guns. Brought loads and all where crap. Then I brought a cheap and nasty one. Has worked faultlessly for about 2yrs. And it always gets used.

 

Of course now in the workshop I use the air compressor one. Perfect for 360 tracks and the thousand and one points on the 360.

 

But off site I use my cheap hand held one. It's lovely. Don't know the make as it doesn't say.

Also compressors....that amount of air SHOULD NOT be in such a small space.

Get yourself a lube shuttle grease gun. The cartridges just screw in, so no messing around
