Hi

I was reading with interest the thread about cheap SDS drills.

I spent several hours last weekend trying to chip away at a concrete
footing
for a fence post with a hammer and cold chisel I decided that I fancy a
new
toy.

Given that I usually buy tools at the cheaper end of the range am I
realistic in thinking that some form of SDS drill (with rotary stop I
guess)
would assist me in finishing this job or am I barking up the wrong tree ?

Thanks

Tim



might be a bit weak unless you spend a lot. I wouldn't usually use an sds
drill like a concrete breaker, odd bricks yes., but I have found that using
an sds drill to actually drill a few holes through concrete makes it break
up very easily, you can then use a point either in a roto stop sds or just
with a hammer to break it up
