Modders Heaven in one isle

Post by KillerByte »

So I am in PE this week and I went to a massive Hardware store called Builders Warehouse, and I am shocked that we don't have something this size in Durban.

I went walking around and look what I found...

Yeah! I have a builders like that about 2KM from my home. I HATE going there because i can never walk out without spending a frikken pile of cash :?

The one here also has an entire Dremel section with 5 million kinds of dremel bits and attachments. Wonderful stuff :D
