the slabs are 4" think. What works better a hammer drill and masonary bit or
a diamond dry bit in a regular drill?


Neither. A rotodrill sounds much faster and better, according to a
thread yesterday. You can rent one.

I'm working on a retianing wall project that involves using busted up old
concrete slabs. I need to drill a ton of 3/4" - 1" holes as the blocks get
higher, any ideas? Also ideas on how to crack the 4" thick concrete where
I need to? Do you think a peice of angle iron and a sledge is best?
