    I am one of those 'gentlemen of a certain age' that circles the Middle of Lidl like a elderly shark, thinking: "oo, that looks useful! I don't know what it does, but it's a good price!" Like your thingamajig.😊
    I've had Parkside tools of various types and found them more than ideal for the sort of DIY tasks I undertake.

    That ratchet system looks clever. This and maybe even a larger version for working on cars when you don't have a long enough deep socket could be handy 😂. I think I saw these in a store a while back but didn't realise how it worked. Will keep a look out for them.

      There are complete sets of "Pass-Through" sockets and ratchet with both 3/8" square drive and pass-through sockets and both metric and imperial sizes. Mine came in a very acceptable light green color plastic case. Not very strong metal, Chinese quality, but still useful for many hard to reach bolts and nuts in the terribly placed components on "modern" cars...
      Sorry, but mine came without any "brand", and I bought it at an Expo, so I cannot give you any other data, but be assured that there are Chinese made sets with so-so acceptable quality. (The ratchet on mine lost one plastic insert at its handle, but I glued it back), and I haven't managed to break a single socket, and the ratcheting screwdriver handle is very flimsy and cheap looking and feeling, but overall, I am still highly satisfied!

    Hello, I also got the Speed Square two years ago from a german Lidl. It's often used in my Workshop since then. It survived the contact with the concrete floor multible times and is still accurate. As leftie I like the metric scale on both sides. The only downside is its thickness, which makes it more sturdy but makes it easy for parallax errors.

    One tip: Put links (or at least actual names and/or type-numbers) of the actual products; they're not very easy to find at the (dutch) lidl webshop. E.g. the level angle gauge is just unfindable...

    A few years ago, Lidl/Parkside did a small 'through hole' ratchet kit - I bought it PURELY for accessing battery-hold-downs (allthreads) but it's been used a TONNE - it's one of the most useful tools I've bought from the place - it's just nothing some you see much...
    I also bought their Lithium 3/8 ratchet which was VERY cheap (£30-odd without a battery) and I've abused-the-hell out of it for a few months now without issues
    The problem is that these things only appear occasionally - you literally get them when they're out (the rush for the winter workpants is almost Harrods-Sale-like!!) or you lose...

    @Oueax День назад +1

    I've got the deburring blade and I can say it's pretty trash assembly wise. The blade holder is steel, the handle is aluminium. The blade holder shaft has a knurled rod end which is pressed into the alu handle. After about several uses the steel holder came loose and I lost the retaining ball. It's still usable if you handle it properly but this design is kinda dumb. Either my product was faulty or it's a design flaw. Maybe a tighter tolerance on the handle would work. Or a screw from the bottom...

    De-Burring tool......these are designed for right handed people. Look at the "guide ball" and the "chamfer angles" relative to the direction of the blade curve. Not so important with round tubes as you just rotate the opposite way, but with flat edges you end up pushing away from you and if the blade slips the recoil of the part hits the user in the chest, whereas right handed the recoil moves away from the user. Try it an you will see how awkward they can be for Lefties.

      In some countries Kaufland also carries Parkside tools. And in some countries Lidl sells tools online, on their website.

      The vise seems to be starting to tour around europe around next week, only in green color. The ratchet was available a few months ago, don't know about germany. The rest are older, but I've seen some in green, so parkside keeps making them from time to time.

      @lohikarhu734 2 дня назад +4

      Well, the British seem intent on adding extra vowels, because of lazy speech habits... Speciality, instead of specialty, but what really gets me is that extra consonant when a word ending in a vowel is followed by a word beginning with a vowel:
      "India is.." becomes "Indiar is"
      "Cuba exists.." Cubar exists ", and so on.
      Aluminum, in any case, is the scientific spelling for the element "Al".

    Why are all of your own tools all rusty? I cannot see that collet working in other countries. Our drills
    do not have a spot on them for that. A Dremel tool would work, but limited on what it can be used for in a vise. But man your tools are so rusty.

      The workshop is in a basement full of moisture. And some of those tools are 20-30 years old.
