Default wall chaser

About to start first fix electrics on the renovation project and was
wondering about buying a wall chaser to speed things up a bit (probably
neater too!).

House is a mixture of lightweight/concrete blocks in the extension and
brick in the original part.

Toolstation have an SDS atachment http://www.toolstation.com/index.html?
r=a&feature=52907&rr=R20m89054fXX4F9K&gclid=CI715o v545YCFQnmlAodW3dsOw
at £75

Screwfix seem to sell a number of different machines with this one
http://www.screwfix.com/prods/81200/...nders/Erbauer-
ERB125Y-125mm-Wall-Chaser at £99 the cheapest.

Anyone had any experience of using any of these care to comment.

Cheers

Martin


Get one with the best dust extraction system. All these tools work at
chasing the masonry, but very few actually have a good dust removal system,
which, with the works they are going to do, is the most important part, in
my opinion. So a good one is the one that attaches easily and effectively
to the big vacuum cleaner hose. And the only way to find out which one that
is, is to go and get a grip of them all in your hands.

But that's just me.
