I have used my Makita SDS for screwdriving. It has the power and low
speed torque, but the main problem is actually the length - by the time
you have a conventional chuck in there with a hex bit holder the end of
the drill is a long way away. Hence less natural to use for this task.



I used an SDS on 6 inch screws. The screws were in a floor, so no

problem
holding the drill. The low speed and torque ensures the screw is well
screwed in.


Oh dear - I think I am agreement with IMM on something


Learning at last. Encouraging.
