TOOLS & ACCESSORIES GARDENA’s New Hose Sprayer Range named the ‘BMW of garden tools’


With an El Niño summer on the horizon, hotter, drier conditions mean that gardeners will need to go the extra mile to help their plants withstand the heat. GARDENA, Europe’s leading brand in garden watering, is helping UK outdoor spaces flourish- one drop at a time with its new hose sprayer range featuring an innovative trigger lock and customers are singing its praises online.

Robot mowers provide a cutting advantage at Carlisle RFC


STIGA has been delivering innovative ground care solutions to rugby clubs across England. The multi-year partnership with England Rugby reflects STIGA’s commitment to supporting volunteers and grounds teams while helping maintain high-quality playing surfaces from grassroots to elite level. As part of the agreement, STIGA


is rolling out equipment to clubs and sports facilities nationwide, supporting the upkeep of pitches and green spaces across the country... including to Carlisle Rugby Club. Founded in 1873, Carlisle Rugby Club has been another lucky recipient of STIGA robot mowers. Bill Glendinning of Carlisle Rugby Club said the club’s new robotic mowers are already saving


significant time and costs across its 3.25-hectare site, which includes two full-size rugby pitches, a junior pitch and training areas. Working alongside a volunteer


grounds assistant, Bill said the robots have reduced the need for traditional mowing during peak growing season, freeing up around three hours of staff time per pitch each week while also cutting diesel use.


After five weeks of operation, Glendinning says the robots have attracted strong interest from members and visitors, with plans underway to compare turf quality between robot-mown pitches and those maintained using a traditional cylinder mower through the PitchPower inspection programme. He adds: “They have undoubtedly

work, and hands-on creativity, the NeoSander combines a 13,000rpm linear motor, 0.6-1.8mm micro-stroke precision, stepless speed control, quick-swap sanding heads, mini-saw functionality, and a compact, low- vibration form factor.


This palm-sized detail sander


HOZO, a leader in advanced tools for evolved makers, has officially launched the NeoSander after a successful Kickstarter campaign. The NeoSander is the world’s first palm-sized detail sander powered by a high-speed reciprocating linear motor, engineered to deliver micro-level accuracy and ultra-fast motion for creators who demand superior finesse. Designed for detail-oriented work spanning 3D printed models, woodworking, miniature builds, car modding, Gundam kits, jewellery

introduces a breakthrough for creators working in tight, intricate spaces. Traditional rotary tools often spin, slip, gouge surfaces, scatter dust, and struggle in corners. NeoSander replaces the traditional sanding approach with a controlled back-and-forth linear motion that reaches confined areas, maintaining a clean and predictable finish. Its direct-drive mechanism sends power straight to the sanding head, bypassing gears and rods found in conventional reciprocating sanders, resulting in faster strokes, improved energy efficiency, and heightened responsiveness.


The tool supports a full ecosystem of interchangeable sanding heads


saved us time. So far, it’s a win-win situation for both the club and me, and I’m looking forward to seeing the improvements the robot mowers make to pitch health over the next three years.”

designed for precision work. The system includes eight head shapes tailored for contours and narrow gaps, including pointed, arc, flat, half-cylinder, acute angle, and right- angle profiles. Each head pairs with matching grit options, allowing makers to maintain workflow efficiency without repetitive setup. Foam-layer abrasives adapt seamlessly to irregular or curved surfaces, ensuring smooth and even sanding results.


NeoSander extends beyond sanding with integrated mini reciprocating saw functionality. It includes both curved and jigsaw blades, each designed with a patented anti-binding system that uses wave-shaped, double-tooth geometry to reduce jamming and enable faster, smoother cutting. This dual capability positions NeoSander as a versatile two-in-one solution for detailed creative projects. The HOZO NeoSander is now available on the HOZO website from £53.00.
