SOME exciting news to share with you this month! Having taken on the sole ownership of this magazine 8 years ago, I have decided it is time to make a move into retirement.
The magazine title has moved into new ownership and will in future be published under the same umbrella as Skip Hire & Waste Magazine.
You can visit their website -
www.skiphiremagazine.co.uk and view the online editions.
I will continue to be involved for some time to come as a consultant and can be contacted at the usual email address and phone number.
You will see some changes to this edition, but also much that is familiar. Peter has been as busy as ever with three reviews, a Festool Insulation Saw, some Triton Jigs and a Paslode Nailer.

We were invited to the launch of the new Triton Jigs at the Toolstream premises in Yeovil, and had fun trying them out on the day.
We also visited Morris Site Machinery in Four Ashes, to learn more about their welding department.

EDITORIAL VIEWPOINT
Peter will continue to write his excellent reviews in future editions and both of us will continue to see many of you at shows coming up later in the year.
Two shows this month – the Toolbank Great North Show in Bolton, and a new venue for Anglia Tools – the Midland Tool Show in West Bromwich.
Visited KATO IMER
We were also invited to the new brand launch for KATO IMER based near Winchester, and spent an enjoyable day trying out their diggers and loaders. A report on the day will accompany the Mini Excavators, Dumpers and Ground Clearance feature in the July/ August edition.
I hope you will continue to support the magazine, and enjoy reading both the magazine and visiting the website to keep up to date with all that’s new in the specialist tool and equipment sector.
