Default Drilling concrete

Netto had some half-decent[1] ones a fortnight ago, might still have a few
left? They came with a handful of SDS bits and chisels, spare brushes etc

[1] Looks rather identical to the Screwfix one, actually, and has the bits
included, so I bought one just for wall chasing (my Bosch GBH doesn't have a
rotation stop). Got to get the tool collection mania under control... The
baby table saw wasn't bad, either (OK for small work, eg frame + panel
doors, wouldn't want to run joists through it...)

The machine is more important than the drill bit. A mains powered SDS
drill is the way to go.



6 years ago I moved into bungalow that needed a lot of TLC. I used
countless drills on the bricks, which are Staffordshires. when I had
almost finished I bought an SDS, now hot knife and butter comes to mind.
If the trouble and strife is against the spend get her to try drilling
the holes. ;-)
