After the Hitachi blowing up after 5 minutes this is probably the machine I have selected (mostly because I like the look of it)

The Metabo BE622 single speed high torque drill has to be one of the best specialist drills on the market.
I have two of them, which get thoroughly used and very abused on a daily basis. They will easily drill 32mm holes through green oak, with the only limitation being your wrists and holding the drill!

Metabo 4.5 inch angle grinder EW 7115 S Quick

I bought this angle grinder from a seller on ebay, but it was brand new!

The grinder is small and light weight and has a saftey clutch built in, which is strange on a 4.5 inch model grinder. The clutch has kicked in a few times, but I wonder if it is really necessary on a grinder of this size?
