well I bought one of these wall chasers the other week and have used it this
weekend and am perfectly satisfied with the results. My own lack experience
meant that my chase was not as straight as it could have been, but otherwise
it did exactly what is says on the tin. For occasional work I would highly
recommend it. It's very well built for £20. The collar that fits over the
drill was a tight fit on my Bosch GSB20-2RE, but I just used a bit of soap
and a gentle tap to ease it on.

The downside is the amount of dust created, but a friend with a vacuum
cleaner to hand would solve that - unfortunately I didn't have that luxury
this time :-(

Thats just put me off cos I was hoping it would be a less messy
alternative than the angle grinder. I hired a water dampened disk the
other day and it was SO much less messy than an angle grinder that I
think the hire shop will have my vote
