-pops- Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 I've built quite a few machines in my time. The only tools I use are a screwdriver and a bit of BluTak.Why do you think you need an Ethernet cable tester? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catgate Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 I reckon if you only ever bought just what you want, as and when you needed it, most of the gadget manufacturers would go bust, you would never have just what you needed (even if you only needed it twice in a life time), and my workshop would be less than half full!!
