You are joking aren't you? I have heard of SDS drills that don't
chisel but never seen one, even in a shop.

No, right now I'm using Norman next door's Bosch UBH 2/20 SE to put pipe
through a wall, and it's the dog's. but it hasn't got a roto stop

and that particular drill and the others like it.. DeWalt 563.. no roto
stop.. Makita 2400 etc... what they do have versus any of the cheap ****e
is a safety clutch....

Now when you say go buy one from Argos then try and drill a big hole in one
go.. don't say you weren't warned when it nearly breaks your wrist...

Dewalt 566, Makita HR3000C and an old cheapy ****e used for chiselling only
