I've been tossing up the idea of one of these, but the Ryobi type. How have you found it compared to the gas touch..

Its hard to compare as its been a while since using the gas torch unit, but it heats up very quickly and is variable temperature. The tip is a blade style and you can purchase pointed and larger block configurations I believe. Its just an option and made sense since I carry the batteries for the chainsaw anyway. I find the gas unit is so small it tends to get lost in the pile of stuff in the spare parts box.

The wife wanted to make her car look good, she's been with me for 25 odd years and it's rub off.
SSSL (lowest you can get) all round with 20x8.5 and 20x9.5 Walkinshaw rims on 255 front & 275 rears.
If only it had a couple more cylinders, story of my life...

planning a solo cape york trip
thinking of a front locker?
don't really know, i've got pretty good articulation and if I let the tyres way down, she seems to grab/grip reasonably well while the front is in the air.
lot of money for something that won't get used much.
had a front locker in the navara and really liked the control and added stability and sense of security it gave me.
hmmmm.

Tell me who you get to fit the locker as mine is still in its box.
My advice is: not to follow my advice.
