Title: A sad day! Post by: ROD on June 14, 2009, 12:58:56 PM A sad day today :'(...my bosch grinder has packed up after about 15 years.! We've been through a lot together over the years ,and Ive introduced him to and educated him in all manner of work situations ,from grinding and cutting metal of all types and thickness,fibreglass work,and paving slab cutting and the like.He has been a good solid friend,and has never kicked back or slipped onto my hand.Only once did he slip onto his tail (power lead) and chop it ,so I gave him a new longer lead ,and he was happy as larry. :D But hey ho its time to go! Theyve come down in price a lot ,so Im gonna treat myself to another Bosch one with 800w motor. ;D

You definitely get attached to tools don't you. I've got a big heap of cheap spanners so I can find the size I want easily, but still ferret through them all to find that favourite one. The Bosch is dead. Long live the Bosch. |
