Need a couple of larger spammers, a crowfoot and some small hex bit sockets. Is there a good one stop shop with decent kit at a fair price?
Cheers.

I can sell you some - but only if you promise to pay in undetectable counterfeit currency.

Lidl had a little socket set in yesterday, might be worth a look - their tool quality is usually fine for home use.

They also sell spam I believe.

I've used [url= https://www.ffx.co.uk/ ]FFX[/url] a few times and found them to be good for online. Toolstop, Toolstation and Screwfix are also ok, and might even qualify for you spammers requirement with the ongoing supply of promotional material ๐Ÿ™‚

I was going to order some hex bits buy I seem to be having a brain fart as I can't find them. I want some hex bits (1.5, 2, 2.5, 3mm) that will fit in my screwdriver handle. The ones with the 1/4" hex fitting. Why am I struggling to find them? Like the ones that fit in the Richey present torque wrench.

Toolstop are appalling search engine spammers quite frankly. They're a real paint in the arse for returning google search results for items they don't and have never stocked.

I've got quite a lot of Teng stuff for (DIY) car work and it's been pretty good.
