Free: Makita ML120 Work Light (Holmer Green HP15) Withdrawn 🔦 Makita ML120 12V Work Light – Handy Add-On for Makita Fans Found this in the toolbox graveyard: a solid Makita ML120 12V work light – perfect if you’ve already got Makita tools that use the older 12V stick-type batteries. 💡 It’s a classic design: no frills, no Bluetooth, no app — just a proper work light that does what it says on the tin. Great for sheds, lofts, camping, or blackouts with character. ⚠️ No battery included, and it won’t work with the newer slide-on Makita Li-ion packs — it’s for the traditional stick-style NiCd/NiMH batteries (you’ll know if you’ve got them). 🧰 Could be the perfect companion for your old drill, or a useful backup light if you’ve already got compatible gear.

Free: Bosch 12V Drills + Charger (Holmer Green HP15) Withdrawn 🛠️ Free to a Good Home: Two Vintage Bosch 12V Drills + Charger – Old School DIY Legends! Clearing out the cave of wonders (aka my shed), and I've unearthed two classic Bosch cordless drills that deserve a second life: 🔹 Bosch GSB 12 VES-2 – the tough one with a hammer function. Think of it as the drill with attitude. 🔹 Bosch GSR 12V – a reliable driver, the steady sibling. No hammer, just good honest torque. 🔋 Comes with an official Bosch charger (Typ 2 607 224 006) that supports 7.2V–12V NiCd batteries. Works fine, just looking for new projects to power. ⚠️ The catch? Batteries not included. These used the old stick-style 12V NiCd packs. You’ll need to track some down on eBay, refurb an old pack, or get clever with a modern battery adapter. 🧠 Ideal for: DIY tinkerers need some TLC Battery-revival wizards --- Let me know if you’d like to add notes about condition, missing parts, or throw in other Bosch bits.

Free: Bosch NiCd Battery Charger (Model 2 607 224 006) (Holmer Green HP15) Withdrawn Title: 🔋 Bosch Description: Old but working Bosch battery charger for 7.2–12V NiCd batteries. Model number: 2 607 224 006. Originally used with Bosch cordless tools. Requires batteries with at least 1Ah capacity (NiCd only — not suitable for lithium batteries). Ideal if you still have compatible Bosch gear, or for parts/repair projects.

Free: Makita DC1804T Battery Charger (7.2V–18V NiMH/NiCd) (Holmer Green HP15) Gifted Offered: Makita DC1804T Battery Charger (7.2V–18V NiMH/NiCd) This is a genuine Makita charger for older-style NiMH and NiCd batteries (7.2V to 18V). Model number DC1804T. I’ve plugged it in and it powers up fine (light comes on), but I no longer have tools that use this type of battery so can’t test it fully. Could be ideal if you have Makita tools from that era or just need a spare charger. Free to whoever can make good use of it. --- Let me know if you're adding more to the bundle or want to jazz it up a bit.

Free: DeWalt 18V NiMH Tool Bundle – For Using, Repair or Restore (Holmer Green HP15) Gifted Clearing out my shed and passing on a bundle of veteran DeWalt cordless tools – from the era of chunky NiMH batteries, in both 18V and 7.2V. Included are several well-used tools, one new battery for each voltage, and a handful of failed batteries (marked with a yellow cross) that someone with the right know-how might be able to revive. There are also two chargers – one working and one faulty, possibly repairable. The tools do work with the supplied new batteries, and replacement batteries for both voltages are easy to find on eBay. Whether you're looking to use, repair, or strip for parts, this bundle has potential. This bundle is ideal for: Tinkerers and tool hackers Battery-rebuilders DIYers with an old DeWalt system Someone who just likes yellow tools that smell faintly of sawdust and heroism 🔧 The Tools: DW960-XJ 18V Right-Angle Drill – 300W, 0–1500rpm, German-made DW920 7.2V Right-Angle Screwdriver – 0–550rpm, folding handle, torque ring DC330 Jigsaw – 18V variable-speed, tool-free blade swap DW933 Jigsaw – 18V, no-nonsense 0–2000spm beast (All tools tested with new batteries and working) Note on the jigsaws: One is usable, just missing a side guide The other works but is missing the base plate – ideal as a spare-parts donor 18v drill 🔋 Batteries (All NiMH): 1 × DC9096 18V – not charging, yellow cross marked 1 × DE9503 18V – not charging, yellow cross marked 1 × New DW9096 18V clone – unbranded 1 × DE9057 7.2V – not charging, yellow cross marked 1 × New DW9057 7.2V clone – unbranded ⚡ Chargers (Both DE9116 – for NiMH): 1 × Black DE9116 – working 1 × Yellow DE9116 – faulty, possibly repairable 🧠 BONUS INFO (Not Included, Just FYI): You can sometimes revive these tools using a DCA1820 adapter, which lets newer DeWalt 20V Max lithium batteries work with these older 18V NiMH tools. This adapter is not part of the bundle – just shown in the photos for reference. If you already have modern DeWalt Li-ion batteries, this adapter could be a handy way to power the tools without investing in new NiMH batteries. You can find DCA1820 adapters easily on Amazon or eBay. 🪛 Pick-up from Holmer Green All or nothing – I’d rather give the whole bundle to one person who can use, repair, or creatively upcycle it. I can leave it by the door for easy collection. Just drop me a message to arrange. 🕒 Please Note: This isn’t a first-come, first-served giveaway. I’ll be waiting 48 hours to hear from interested Freeglers, so I can find the right home for this amazing bundle of tools. If you’d like to be considered, just drop me a few words about why you want it – whether you're a DIYer, fixer-upper, tinkerer, or someone who just loves giving old gear a new lease of life. Enthusiasm counts!
