Big all... do you know if those blades fit LIDL's parkside tool ???

I would say so as I have fitted the Parkside cutters into my Bosch and these fit Bosch. Saxton have a good offer http://www.saxtonblades.co.uk/index.php ... onth-c-135 O find I tend to use the same blades more than others.

Funny, I've tried the Parkside cutters on my Bosch, and they didn't seem to go right on the pips (or whatever they are called)
Probably didn't try hard enough!

Hmmm....I wonder if they were Lidl ones then?

Could be. I'll have to have another look. I only gave it a quick try, and as I said it wouldn't go on, although it looked the same. Mine are definitely Lidl ones.

I bought the Lidl multi-tool a couple of years back; I didn't think it would get much use.. so I bought the cheapest available..

how wrong I was......

dont know to be honest but i have a ryobi and it needs an adapter to convert to bosch
i actually have 2 converters they are about the size off a 2p coin if you get a set and they dont fit i will send you an adapter foc assuming it will fit
what does the drive look like on the lidl buzzy toy

ok just done a measure
the lugs on a bosch gop are 25mm apart[outside edges]
so iff the lidle one only has lugs the same they should fit
the ryobi has a "x" drive
the other lug spacing on flip off the adapter is around 21mm[outer edge]

as an aside the ryobi blades look the same as the lidl on line picture with a 12 sided star around 16mm point to point on the ryobi
what is it on the lidl ??

I'll have to dig it out and check BA..

I've had a look. The Bosch has sort of rounded rectangle lugs, the Parkside cutters have round lug holes. Same dia / spacing (as far as I can see now, and remember from actually trying them a while back), so they look as if they'll fit but won't actually go over the lugs.

OTOH, the Bosch fit blades may well fit the Parkside. That's not a definite though!

if they look exactly the same but just dont fit then i would expect machining differences and will probably "wear in" and fit iff you tighten the screw/clamp
