Mushroom bung kit that comes with the 'gun' to install.

Actually works really well, did two in the back tyre last night with it.

All the gubbins that you need to install a new toilet pan.

Also bought a ratchet cutter for slicing plastic pipe after making a total botch job with a junior hacksaw.

Quite possibly one of the best purchases you'll ever have made. A decent quality one is worth it's weight in gold.

It does a good job but does slightly deform the pipe (no real problem getting it circular again).

I do have one for cutting trunking but that's aimed more at square section stuff.

Looking for more plumbing tools last night I came across this circular cutter from Knipex:

Clicky

Looks just the job

I have a plastic conduit cutter and it's a revelation.

If you do have to use a hacksaw though, just wrap a sheet of paper around the pipe first and square it up and you'll have a cutting guide to follow. Also get yourself a deburring tool to clean the edges up.
