The best tools in the world are WERA Germany. Check them out. They're expensive but are the best.

Last night I bought some seafood on the way home, cooked it up, did the dishes after and cleaned the kitchen floor.

Good to clean the kitchen floor with the dish water after doing the dishes.
Did you give the toilet a sprinkle with the magic dish water as well Sprint..lol
Sounds to me like Sprint is a messy "chef" ... he cooked, washed up and CLEANED THE KITCHEN FLOOR?

Did you drop stuff all over the floor, Sprint? :rofl
The floor was getting tacky. Kitchens are like that.
While there is hot soapy water ready to go, may as well use it one last time before letting it go down the sink.
Yuck, so you washed to kitchen floor with the mop in the left-over dishwater? Isn't that going a little too far with the "water saving" thing? :rofl

Still, Queenslanders, they are an odd lot. :rofl

' ............. you washed to kitchen floor with the mop in the left-over dishwater? ........ '
Yes.


' ...... Queenslanders, they are an odd lot. .......... '

I love my Tojiro kitchen knives.

I've never done it myself but I think it's a pretty good idea. Don't know about you but my dishwashing water is never 'dirty'.

Probably depends on whether you give them a good rince before you wash, I have found putting them on the floor and letting the dog give them a good lickin is helpfull lol

It depends. In general, not overrated at all. I'm not a fucking fanboy.

I go:

Small tools - German
Electrical tools - German
Multi-tools - Swiss
Knives - American (strongest locks, most durable steels, best heat treatment)
Sharpening system - Russian
Pistols - German, American, Croatian
Holsters - Israeli
Carbines - German
Offroad SUVs - German
Offroad heavy trucks - Russian
Car suspensions, bullbars, snorkels - Australian
Sports cars - Italian or American
Family normal cars - Czech or Swedish
Beer - Czech
Food - Bulgarian
Drinks - Bulgarian
Sweets - Greek and Bulgarian
Music - American
Martial arts - Japanese
Smartphones - Japanese
Music instruments, headphones, speakers, recorders - Japanese
Lighting and LED - Dutch
Vitamins and probiotics - Canadian
Architecture and interiors - Swedish
Tires - Finnish
Language - English
Vacations and girls - in Romania, Romanian :bgrin

I can go like that forever. Fanboyism is for retards. Fanboys are missing the whole point in life. And trust me, German machinery has no match, the same way for example a modded Ferrari will ass-rape any other car. They take a Ferrari and compare that to a modded Nissan Skyline with 1,200 horsepower to the stock Ferrari. A modded V12 Ferrari has no match in this world.

Looks good to me

I don't like that method.
It puts a radius on the cable that is too small.
That will put stress on the copper inside it.
The best way is to store the cable in as larger loops as possible without twists.

You should never draw large currents through an extension cord
where the wires cross each other in tight loops.
That can cause overheating and thermal runaway in the cable.
The cable will get hotter and hotter.

I saw that, did not think it as too bad.
