    Same here, a mc connel sawbench, colleced it in PWO near to Monaghan. It's handy enough for a 1 man operation plus it points stakes! Second to that is my "wave" multitool - gets a job done everyday!!

    a socket set from ebay UK all sizes up to 27mm

    list price £256 got it dropped in the door for €130

    more interestingly which sockets do I use most, the tiny ones, the ones that no one has that small a spanner to catch them, I thought when buying that it would be the common sizes but no its the tiny ones

    That's a great deal especially when they come in so handy.
