It's true Nirvana exisits - for tools anyway

Unfortunately it is a long way from me..

came across a 'factory shop' for tools when on holiday in cornwall last week. so this may be of use to Mark Allanson anyway!

it's on the road from Redruth to Portreath

They had just about every tool i could ever want / need...(decent 150lbf/ft torque wrench for £20!)

Unfortunately my darling wife dragged me from the shop kicking and screaming then confiscated my credit cards...

You missed the best gift/card shop in Cornwall though................

Yep, I know the place, the village is called Bridge - they also sell top quality files for £3 each - a BIG box of assorted taps, at £1.50 each.

I asked for a Rivnut tool at the till, the chap looked at me funny and slowly opened his mouth and never said a word. After about 60 seconds without change, I broke the spell and said "I guess not then and made my way out"
