Can buy those drill bits with hex end. And carry a single GO for pilot hole and screwdriving.

I am sorry.Really need 2 of this.

He can still buy it at shoppee, only the price has increased.

Having seen it, I must say that it is impossible to get it at that price. They must have sold it at a loss (perhaps for promotion and advertisement). Even the set of bosch screw bits may cost rm37 if we buy separately. Furthermore, the battery is lithium ion instead of nimh. The feel of the tool is solid compared to the China brand and, even if u compare to black and decker it is still a no match, this is of a very good quality tool indeed. Good buy indeed. Thanks rigidius for informing us and old newspaper for the discount.

If I knew it of this good quality, I would have bought 6 units.

Really didn't know the battery is different when bought separately.Thanks for the info.

yes, this local made bosch tool is indeed better build quality than those bosch made in prc...

if i knew this good quality, i would have bought 8 units too!



oh btw, for those miss it earlier, can get it from superbuy at RM149 ( free shipping and free powerbank ). now shopee don't have any promo and the price is RM179...

you always managed to get good deals on toys

of course must score good good deal to justify money worth spend....all $$$ used to buy toys are korek from my tabung ( menabung from young one )

but i still got few more makita toys i really really really wanted to buy....how leh..no more tabung to korek d?

i'm hooked on welding.
so much easier compared to woodworking. like 1000x easier.
so thinking of buying a smaller unit that i can carry around and lift and weld on a ladder. the previous unit is 76kg behemoth.

thinking of getting these multiprocess welders that can also do TIG so i can do really really thin materials.
shortlisted these models:

austcorp mig2000s


masw mig201s

any comment before i place order?


also found this Cigweld Transmig 175i clearing stock. very high quality construction. much better than above models, but made in australia so support and parts and repair might be a problem later.

get this.
battery powered TIG welder. now u can TIG anywhere


Stick (MMA) welding up to 140 amps (10-140 A range)
TIG welding up to 150 amps (3-150 A range)
Powered by 120V AC and capable of cordless welding
IP23 water and dust resistance rating
Weighs 24.5 lbs, charger weighs 2.4 lbs
17.1″ L x 6.3″ W x 12.2″ H (just the welder)
Open Circuit Voltage: 91V Max

in my past experience, get a set of longer welding cable is far more practical then moving the entire welder up and down

wah. looks expensive.
must be expensive. and prolly not selling locally with non-existent local support

i already have 5m mig torch. looking for another shorter 3m torch because all those long thick cable snaking is no fun.

you got use TIG before?

yeah, to weld ss plate together

not crafty tho

recently i came across Bata Industrials safety shoes

they look interesting, and more importantly, the price is quite cheap, considering that it's used worldwide (compared to local brands like King, etc etc)





this one looks like dunlop's offering



and this one looks uncanningly similar to the ever popular rempit OnG choice, red wing pecos

try drilling a pilot hole first, maybe using 3mm bit

then gradually with 6mm, 12mm or whatever size you want

use high speed rpm, but low torque since 3mm bits are easily broken. drive the drill firmly but slowly

Wow this looks nice.
Never seen safety shoes selling at Bata store before.

How much?

Rm300+

This model is available thru lazada, shoppee

The one i wanted is made in netherlands and is available so far only from amazon uk
