sds hammer drill
Is it just me or is it now common to have two SDS drills?
#1 A cheap 3 in 1 type, same machine but any brand, nearly always left on
chisel setting, which are great for breaking things into small pieces, but
weigh a ton, don't have a slip clutch, need greasing, have a too short
cable, smell funny after hard work, die within the guarantee enabling you
get a full refund then buy a replacement.
#2 A brand name quality piece for drilling now you have all those lovely
bits, a long cable, good case, comfortable grip, slip clutch for those
'moments', no need for grease chambers, usable up a ladder without arms like
Popeye etc.
I never realised how great the diffference would be until the shed thought
it would be a good plan to price the £120 DeWalt at £49 until they rapidly
sold out, wonder why?
Toby.
