Don't know what your talking about...not that savvy. Never heard of
a
drill having a hammer / impact mode..but thats me...and yet, I doubt
it. It is a $100 Hitachi variable drill.
Drills for masonry can either...
1. rotate the bit
2. hammer with the bit (like a mini jackhammer, bits are more like
small
chisels)
3. rotate AND hammer a round bit. The hammering greatly increases the
efficiency.
For a casual user, something that will do #1 and #3 are most useful
IME.
Harbor Freight sells one for about $30.
Sorry, could you make it clearer about the Harbor Freight $30? What
do I ask for when i get there? Thanks
