I just sprayed my white card gold Full rate now and saved 2k not doing am2 & nvq.

lorry drivers been doing that for years

@@chris_hertford I always wondered why they left them open, I figured it was in case there was a fire so it could easily be seen and extiguished before it takes hold, never occured to me it was also to prevent theft, cant break in or steal anything if its on show and nothing is in there :D

No its not. If you're the kind of person willing to buy stolen tools worth 1000s for a few hundred quid, another person's initials on the tool isn't going to stop you buying them

@@sregoreel ofcourse people will still exist who buy them but less people will buy them. You can't stop crime but you can deter people from being involved. Also obvious markings make it easier to find your stolen property being sold on the likes of Facebook.

Yessssss

also male gigolo, amazing film 👍

Only if you get to it before the police in the event of a break-in! What tazer?

How about stolen property,

@@paullenton2076 That's already illegal - to steal and to sell. Making it illegal for everyone to sell things won't change that.

I agree that people being banned from genuinely selling their own tools is not an ideal solution. There are many people who either retire, upgrade, change brand Etc who sell their tools on. Then there’s those in need on lower incomes like apprentices or those recovering from a theft of their own. There should either be some sort of serial number register that manufacturers have to adhere to or another way of permanently marking up tools so it’s hard for those markings to be removed.

You are not understanding the problem. It's not to stop the car booter who is getting rid of all his old tools, perhaps clearing his dead Dad's shed. It's to stop the guys who turn up to car boot sales with a van FULL of used power tools. They aren't buying them cheap, refurbing and flipping them, they are flogging off stolen goods, simple as that and it's going on at an industrial scale - go to a car boot sale this weekend and see for yourself. If you have a few old tools, there shouldn't be an issue selling them, correct. If they are not-so-old, and you can maybe show the original purchase receipts (and will give your details to anyone buying them from you, just in case, down the line, Mr Plod suspects they have been stolen), or have registered them online when you bought them etc, making them traceable, there shouldn't be an issue selling them. However, if you only speak, say oooh, Bulgarian, and rock up to a carboot sale you've never been to before, with 4 other geezers, in van with foreign plates, and have 10 x DeWalt Impact drivers, same model, of varying age and condition, (along with 15 x Hammer drills, 7 x Grinders, 12 x Multi-tools, 8 x chopsaws, a ton of spare batteries, etc etc, you get the picture) - there very much SHOULD be an issue being able to sell them for cash at a carboot sale. Of course, if we all stopped buying stuff from the swarthy fellows in the vans, it might slow the market and they'd go back to taking overhead railway cable. We should stand together and resist buying tools which we know are being sold for way less than we'd think they were worth "Hang on, that blokes got a nice Hilti in there and he only wants £50 cash. Sod it, someone else will only buy it, won't they, and I could really do with one. Where's my wallet? Just this once..." How many of you wouldn't have just a quick peep and see what stock they had? We all could do with a cheap back-up for home, just in case, right? THAT is as much the problem as the scrotes who steal and fence the stuff.

@@Mr.MFuckingYTchangedmyname TL;DR. I understand the problem, you don't understand the proposal. Quite how you can misunderstand the very plain language used, nobody knows.

They'll have one of everything to sell with receipts. Not a van full at a car boot.

@@tombarrett1487 And still, with the proposal as written, they'd not be able to sell them.

Shaver sockets can go in the bathroom because they have an isolation transformer inside so whatever you plug in is separated from a direct mains connection. Light switches can go in under certain circumstances, but typically just become common to put them outside. Showers can because they are double insulated, have no metal parts that could become live. Really it’s just sockets that can’t because you could put a radio for eg, on the edge of your bath while your in it. However if the socket is 2.5M away from a bath, it can go in the bathroom.

@@Cablesmith Thanks for clarifying! But yes, I was aware of all of the reasons. It's just funny because the rest of the world considers putting a GFCI (RCD) on an outlet in the bathroom enough to mediate the safety issues. No need to have a special socket. In fact, generally it's assumed that people will just run an extension cord to use regular appliances in a bathroom otherwise, so in most North American jurisdictions it's Required to have a GFCI protected outlet within a short distance of the sink to account for that. Anyways, the point I was making was that an electric shower, even if it is installed correctly, should be about the same level of risk as an outlet that's properly protected. But often they're not properly installed, which gives them Way more potential for danger than an outlet on the wall. Just such an interesting juxtaposition to me. What's allowed versus what's not allowed and the seemingly counterintuitive reasoning behind it. Thanks again for the thorough explanation!

@@chaseohara4781 yea don’t get me wrong, a lot of contradictory things in our regulations and stuff that doesn’t make sense or have any real valid points.

@@chaseohara4781 An electric shower is nowhere near the same level of risk as an appliance you hold in your hands during operation, with a thin, flexible cord attached to it. And the protective measures of an electric shower are not known for failing without any outward sign of malfunction.

@@CablesmithDouble insulated shower? 3M for a socket outlet not 2.5M ?

Stop being gay

Because vehicles have to be made as light as possible for fuel efficiency and not everyone needs or wants a secure vehicle. It's up to you to upgrade to your requirements which is what I've done.

@@mfx1 can't see many people opting for a less secure vehicle!

@@chris_hertford Many people use vans for transporting low value items, they don't want the extra cost/weigh penalty that extra security requires. It's also better to customise security to your needs/budget, if all vans were the same any weaknesses would make them all vulnerable and you'd be back to square one.

Just about to say the same 😀

Oh shut up
