Chisel Set
Aug 28th, 2011, 3:07pm
 
Looking to replace my chisel set.  I am looking at Marples, but was wondering if anyone could clarify the main differences between the M373 range and the MS500 range?

Thanks.

Yeah but in the hands of a plumber a chisel has so many uses,:-

screwdriver, cold chisel, jimmy bar, cable cutter, tile remover, pencil sharpener etc etc.

Almost forgot, it can be used on wood too  Grin Grin
