Guest Guest Posted May 18, 2011 I got the argos challenge set and love it. Had it for 6 years now. Only problem I had was finding replacement bits and I sure as hell wasn't going to pay 'dremel' prices. I got a big kit from lidls for a fiver, got all the polishing bits, cutting discs and sanding drum bits. I use it to sand down wood, discs to cut fibreglass etc etc. If you want something for polishing, Lee recommended this site to me, http://www.thepolishingshop.co.uk/acatalog/Standard_Polishing_Kits.html#a30 just put them on your drill - job done. Or you could pay Lee to do it...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
