Thinking about getting a stud and pipe finder but not sure. I know theres a few guff ones out there. Anyone got one worth buying?
 
Give my mate the sds battery drill and a 5.5 bit and he can find the pipe everytime! :) :)

I have a black and decker one for studs, electric and pipe. Wife bought it for me one christmas a few years back, also has a laser level on it. Not brilliant on the studs but good at the pipes and electric. Laser gets most use for tiling.
 
Try one of these:)

Have a black an decker one also (without laser) worked well for finding gas pipes under floor boards.
