Some form of SDS, makes drilling in things that would laugh at a hammer
drill a breeze and softer materials a POP. If you do get and SDS make
sure it has both hammer and rotation stop, you then have a little kango
for breaking or chiseling, lot less effort than a lump hammer and cold
chisel.


also be sure to get a 2kg one, not a cheaper 5kg, else your arms can
drop off halfway thru the job.
