Great, but the sockets start at 32mm. Unless you're spannering trucks or heavy plant surely that's not too useful?

I couldn't resist at under £20 delivered to my door!

Perfect for motorcycle rear axle bolts. 32mm on my R1 and 46mm on my Triumph.

Bargain engine stand here, mine is on its way £40.00 delivered

Not bad! 10mm wide lens and no mirror for looking backwards means it'll be no good for looking down bores though...

[gerradiuk]

This could do with a bump.
Any latest bargains to be had ?

[buzzer]

I bought one of those borescopes... 2 meters long, 10mm lens. plugs into the laptop... had it a while and it was about £15 delivered. I have found it very useful on the car... I inspected inside the sill on a restored lancia recently... It was not a pretty sight in there. I was able to take pictures, and the owner is now talking to the restorer about the fact there is major rust in there, no strengthening web, and just gobs of cavity wax! So much for a "professional" restoration! looks like he has removed the outer sill and just welded another on top and left the inside! The restorer provided photographic evidence of the restoration, but now it looks like they were not pictures of the owners car!



I have also now seen things I have never seen before, and perhaps things no man should ever see

Not Ebay but Halfords are clearing out flex ratchet spanners a £3 a go..... clicky

[Hoonigan]

Just ordered all 9 available, thanks Got to go to three stores to collect them all mind....

[Quikcurl]

I just ordered as many as I could too.. only 7 for me though, evidently too late to the party!
I have to visit three stores as well...

I have the standard Halfords ratchet spanners, and was talking about getting flex heads earlier today while working on my sister in laws car, so this offer came at the right time for me!

Just let my hair down and bought a No3x150 Posi screwdriver for £2. It's 6 miles away though but I'm passing later in the week

[V8RX7]

Just bought one of these

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200790385565

Work / Inspection light that is not only rechargeable but also works via a wind up dynamo - as I'm always finding my others are flat when I need them.

Good amount of light

I'm sitting here waiting for it to discharge so I can test the wind up feature - allegedly 1 min winding = 20 mins light

(same seller, selling cheaper on Amazon)
