The multi tool does things that nothing else can reach, like cutting a square hope in a deck! But the sliding mitre saw doesn't get used as much as I expected. It is great if you need to cut several bits of wood just the same length, but I don't often need to do that. Hadn't thought about a planer, but I'm not sure if I've got the room for anything more!

I have bought a few tools following your purchases and informal review, namely the Charnwood bandsaw and the Bosch multitool. Both are excellent and really useful. <br /><br />A recommendation from me to you would be the planer thicknesser I bought recently. I looked at lots and had many bids on eBay but finally bought the Titan from Screwfix. The cheapest I have seen anywhere only £150. I have used it to plane some cedar I have and some mahogany and the results are great, smooth, no ridges. Dust collector works great. The unit is surprisingly well made so if you are looking I would recommend it unless you are looking to spend more. You will notice looking at many of the machines they are of similar design underneath but with some different features. I was surprised the Titan had a bigger motor than a model that was over £100 more so worth looking at the detail of the spec.
