Aldi Multi-Tool

[Yorkie]

Bought this really useful tool recently, they do still have some in my store.



From mem about £35 and spare tools extra.

It has scrappers and triangle sandy discs etc but the bit that interested me was the saw. It oscillates thru a small arc and literally can be plunged. In my case into Luan (poor mans Mahog).

I have no connection with Aldi, just a customer who like there stuff. My wife calls them "my tailor" as I buy many of there clothes

I managed to visit the local Aldi today for the first time ever. They didn't have the multi-tool - they seem to have stuff in as 'special offers' and when it's gone it's gone. They did have lots of other power tools of the same brand and I must say that they looked quite good on the face of things, and keenly priced. For example, an electric engraver and a palm sander, neither of which would need to be heavy duty as wouldn't the 'multi-tool'. They also had what looked like a decent gas soldering iron kit.

There other things such as ladders and steps looked very robust and good quality (maybe they're 'German'!). They had sets of three 600mm long SDS drills I'd say from 15mm - 32 mm. I don't have any call for them, but for anyone who might do, as far as I could tell from a visual observation, they looked good quality. I found quite a lot to interest me in the tools and hardware section, so I'll make a point of popping in from time to time, if only out of interest, and I might try to other local Aldi store to see if they sill have the Multi-tool.

As to being your 'tailor' Gary, I looked at a few clothing items and they seemed good quality and well made, which I'd be quite happy to wear. EG, some nicely tailored shorts.
