I thought I'd grab partners drill and have a go at putting my pan rack
thingy up. OK its a normal drill, and I put in a masonary bit, drilled
in and it went ok for about 1.5 inches then it was like mutant rock!!!
It would not budge!! .. SO I put it on hammer action and it chipped away
a little more but not no where near enough to put a raw plug in as per
instructions saying. PArtner is too busy laughing at my attemtp to get a
straight answer out of him, I think he passed oput from laughter for
some reason lol... I did ask him for months ot put it up but hes has not.

Any ideas what I''m doing wrong ?

... be gentle am a bit wet behind the ears with DIY I usually just do
the painting lol.

1. The first section was most likely plaster. Pinkish dust.
2. You have either hit the brick and the drill is blunt.
3. You have run into steel like that covering cables. Check you have
no power sockets above or below where you are drilling.
4. Try drilling the hole for the other mounting and see how that goes.
If it is the same the drill is most likely blunt. For walls use hammer
action
all the time. Unless just starting it off. Much easier.
