  • Unless you've got a freshly waxed Audi sitting outside, in which case just ignore me

  • I always imagined Audis are for people who buy into the whole 'German (perceived) quality' thing.

    I dunno, I suppose it depends on what you'll actually be sawing or drilling. My late Dad did an unreasonable amount of DIY and a Black & Decker handled all his drilling needs just fine. I have a nice drill, but it barely rotates in anger these days so I could just have well bought something cheap.

    If you want what a value-minded professional might use, Makita's stuff is good quality and a complete 'system', as is blue Bosch. If money's no object, Hilti. If you're just sawing the odd bit of wood anything safe will do
