    Been busy building this afternoon, a whole house in 30 minutes for our 3 year old granddaughter. Brilliant value. £20 from Lidl, amazing really. She's well chuffed :) similar house for sale £120 in Mothercare! All we got to do now is get her off to bed around . We are On sitting duty. Well what else would I be doing? :rolleyes:

    So well designed, did not need any tools. It all interlocks, solid construction too. Quite impressed & trust me that doesn't happen very often. Just goes to show one doesn't need to spend a fortune. :)

    Saw a Dremel type drill/polisher thingy in Lidl today. £19.99 I believe it was with lots of tools included. Seemed a solid, weighty piece of kit. They also had an intelligent battery charger for £13.99(ish). SWMBO dragged me away rather quickly!:eek::(

    I have a Dremmel-type thingie that Lady Poppy got me for Chrimbo a few years ago. It says Woolworths on the case which how many years ago it was. Been very useful.

    I was quite surprised by its weight and apparent solidity. I'll probably regret not treating myself to it.:rolleyes:

    I've had the Dremal type thingy for about 10yrs now, had to fix the chuck brake by drilling it through to insert a pin, other than that its great!
    Even got through most of the original bits and a box, now on the 3rd its been well used!
    Grind stones are a bit soft, thats all.
