it's brilliant! The teflon coated screw bit winds into the cork with no resistance, and the cork comes sliding out with ease.

Talk about a put-down

"His pliars alone"

actually, more.

$31 for that kit, $40 for pliers.

You buy cheap, you buy twice :sage:

Having said that, I got a fantastic socket set for £6.99 from Robert Dyas.

Ross, whilst you're here, what's your opinion on Pink Tools? The DIY kind, not the kind the smutty little feckers who pass as educated literate men will deliberatly misinterpret the phrase as. JP told me off for buying them, because you wouldn't like it. I personally think it's a really good tool set, and because it's pink, shows who does the fecking DIY in my house, including fixing the fecking boiler!

They're crap.
Why?
My pliers alone (or should I say 'ALONE'?) cost the same as that entire kit.

Actually, the picture doesn't do them justice. I've had shitter "men's" budget tools. They're sturdy beasties and were half price. I know they're not professional quality but they do the job. Getting the old toilet seat off the toilet, I had to jam the screwdriver under the stupid moulded wingnut underneath (the wings had rotted off and no amount of WD40 and plier or molegrip action would get them to move,) and stamp on it. The nuts came off but the screwdriver was intact, wasnt even chipped.
