My wife loves Bosch kitchen appliances. She insists on them. Fridge freezer, Dishwasher, Kettle, Food mixer etc. She also says we have to have Bosch garden stuff. Hedge trimmers, lawn mower, etc. But the best thing is when I tell that I need a new tool for a project I'm about to start she always tells me to make sure its a Bosch!! And who am I to argue!! So I have a little workshop with lots of Bosch tools. Happy days

I don't know if the Siligun is drip proof but Wolfcraft makes a cheap plastic caulk gun (Wolfcraft 1 MG 100 4351000) that has automatic stop. No need to release the pressure on the back tab to stop the caulk coming out, it doesn't even have a back tab. It' struggles a bit with very thick stuff, like T-rex, but they are cheap and light, and automatic stop is a game changer!

@@Penster-Elle I bought a slightly pricier model (around £28), and honestly would never go back to the cheap ones as there’s so much flex in them and each pump doesn’t go far enough. This little one is great but I’ve heard people say that once a tube is used in it, then it splits in other guns… not sure how true it is though as I’ve never seen a need to have a mastic gun that tiny.

I bought a saw like the SabreCut about 20 years ago while doing some low voltage electrical work (network and phone wiring)... DeWalt sold them in the US... I still have it in my electrics tool bag. I bought into the Rigid Pro Gear 2 boxes (like the JCB) they also came with the wall mount brackets, but not the little open bins (they have the latching bins in each of the boxes and dividers in the small ones) If the JCB drawer boxes are as good as the Rigid ones, they are a definite must have. Putting the drawer box(es) on the bottom of the cart is really convenient.
