For those of you with 1/2" impact wrenches
this set of Draper Expert Deep Impact Sockets is £4.29 delivered on ebay. It's a new seller so I'm guessing it's a loss leader to get some feedback as they usually sell for around £20.
I've ordered a set anyway and will report on weather they turn up or I take a refund.
Couldn't agree more that a compressor is critical for the diy car enthusiast.
We only have a baby one and it's no good for tools but for blowing out dust and pumping up tyres its the nuts.
I do so miss the old one I had, it was massive and once pumped up I could use it for an age without the horrible noise kicking in.
I will replace it with a medium size one when I am able.
