damm.. they jacked up the price... thats cheating T_T.... better buy Skil orbital than for RM112...
*
create a new gemfive account....use duitraya30 ( RM98 - RM30 = RM68 ). There might/might not be a shipping charges as the purchase is less than RM80 after discount...

but personally i would rather but cheap bosch grinder than this dong cheng grinder...

oh, i thought you are referring to the dong cheng grinder earlier.....it quite a handy tool if you are into woodworking, otherwise just do manual sanding...i have not use other sander before, so i can't do any comparison.

Bosch X-Line Accessories Drill Bits ( after discounts, it only cost RM95.50 !, more expensive if buying individual bits)

Milwaukee Measurement Tape + Flip Utilities Knife Combo ( after discounts, it only cost RM70.84 ! ) This measurement tape is build to last and what i like is the back printed vertical scale and finger stopper feature.

Drills targeting first time buyers usually comes with a lot of accessories.
I think is good so first time buyers can try to do many things.
With the internet age now, it will be even better if Bosch include a web link to teach those buyers how to do some home DIY and with proper safety.

Why Makita not so aggressive in marketing like Bosch? Their cordless tools are very interesting.
*
makita never target their tool to end user...mostly focus to contractor / commercial user...beside bosch cordless, i prefer milwaukee cordless more compare to makita cordless range...but too bad, very limited shop carry this milwaukee. i got to know 1 shop carry a lot of milwaukee brand but after service is an issue...

That measurement tape look different and interesting. Is the 2 side have the mark ? And it stay when pull, press retract ?

That drill set look good. Easy to carry anywhere.

All my drill, box nut, screw driver is everywhere and messy. Just don't no how to organize. Can't find a proper tools box set that fit all.

yes, both sided marking. There is an architectural scale at the back printed marking too ( 1/8 & 1/50 scale ) which is very handy for plan reading in scale...

check this video out...better than i explain it in words.. biggrin.gif

Ya, understand the scale.

Too bad just brought 1. I hate those cheap plastic measurement tape. The slamming cause the plastic break off easily. And the rubber will break after short yrs.
*
i have dispose quite a number of those cheap measurement tape including one 1 stanley tape previously....most of my issue relate to the cracked housing due to drop and some the roller doesn't retract the tape back after pull out...some the marking got faded after less than a year of usage...but among the cheap one, original stanley is still the best ( the metal case one )

none of my previous tape could compare to this milwaukee, which i think it will last for a longer time.. biggrin.gif

USD79.
I add some saw blades and triangle sandpapers to make it up to $100 so eligible for $20 discount.
Bosch R12V46 4-Inch 6Tpi Wood with Nails Reciprocating Saw Blade, 5-Pack $14.11.
The $20 discount offset 60% of the courier fee.

This one can deliver to Malaysia without L-Boxx.  sweat.gif

I was thinking of getting the 18V recip saw but I think its too large for my use.
Plan to use it to trim palm tree leaves only.

Btw how much was your sabre saw before discount?

Regarding kastam, my jigsaw was sent using UPS.
The costs of GST already included in the courier charges. Kastam no kacau.

Next shipment will come using DHL, see how lar...
*
That's freaking cheap considering shipment from the states! All my blades are purchased seperately. The long blade cost rm55 per pack of 5pcs. The milwaukee blade also cost the same price too....

The 10.8v sabre saw was retail for rm810 for the full set. Since i already have few L boxx (236 & 102), 8 batteries and few charger...i nego with the shop to sell it to me solo. He can earn more selling separately and i don't have to pay more for unnecessary. Win win for both of us rclxms.gif

Usually if shipment value is below rm500 including shipping, kastam wont kacau one unless the shipment box is huge or raya is coming soon... laugh.gif i hope your is ok icon_rolleyes.gif

wah! tool shopping spree d thumbup.gif

tested the 18V blower last 2 week. very powerful for it size but very noisy as well biggrin.gif anyway this a very handy tool indeed. i wish bosch will release cordless for its 10.8v too .... hope fully with dual function ( blow and vacuum function )

the blower should be from corated by looking at the white sticker at the handle..and the battery also should be from corated too. Corated is clearing their 2014 battery stock. CT Hardware battery stock is 2015.

As the 10.8v sabre saw only occupy half the L-boxx, not yet decide what the other half will be.

can put the charger and battery inlay next to it...or any other 10.8 tool if you have...
